Abstract

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is one of the most common sexual dysfunctions in men. Most patients with erectile dysfunction are not diagnosed and treated, only about 30% of cases go to the doctor for this disease, but the number of treatment adherence is even lower. This study aims to describe the knowledge about erectile dysfunction and treatment adherence of patients visiting Hanoi Medical University Hospital. Results: The patient's knowledge about erectile dysfunction is still low (73.33% has not been reached). It is necessary to conduct more in-depth and broader studies on patients' knowledge about ED and its influencing factors in the Gynecology and Sex Medicine Units.
