This course is divided into three detailed units:

Unit 1: Sexual Function and Dysfunction
This unit introduces the physiology of male sexual function and explores common sexual dysfunctions such as erectile dysfunction (ED) and performance anxiety. Participants will learn how to assess and diagnose these issues, focusing on the multifactorial causes of ED, including psychological, biological, and lifestyle factors. The connection between ED and underlying health conditions like cardiovascular disease and diabetes is also discussed.

Unit 2: Penile Erection Aids
In this unit, various treatments for erectile dysfunction are presented, including oral medications like PDE5 inhibitors (Viagra, Cialis), penile injections, vacuum devices, and penile implants. The course also discusses the role of shockwave therapy in ED treatment, including its efficacy and ideal patient profiles.

Unit 3: Ejaculation Physiology and Disorders
The final unit focuses on ejaculation disorders, with an emphasis on premature ejaculation (PE) and its treatment options. Participants will explore both psychological and pharmacological therapies, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and topical aesthetics. Techniques such as the stop-start method and the squeeze technique for managing PE are also discussed.

What your colleagues say

"I would recommend this course as an important addition to self-directed learning in dermatoscopy. It was an invaluable course to gain the diagnostic tools, knowledge and confidence in managing skin cancer. The course was professionally conducted with excellent presentations."

- L. Suntesic Nurse

"Excellent! This is a great course that has helped me diagnose many more subtle, early skin cancers especially melanoma in situ. The course was clearly presented, with good pictures and course book. All HealthCert's skin cancer courses have been hugely valuable to my practice!"

- R. Mundell Nurse

"An excellent course introduction to dermoscopy and relating what you see to the histopathology and applying this in clinical practice. Great lectures and supporting materials."

- S. Jan Nurse

"I really enjoyed the level of learning. It is very rewarding to know that I am potentially saving lives. Recently I volunteered with the Lions Cancer Institute for two days, and we screened 158 patients, detected 38 possible melanomas and 83 keratinocyte skin cancers. It was a very successful and rewarding two days, and something I could do confidently because of my learning from this course."

- K. Laverty Nurse

"I highly recommend this course. I increased my knowledge and developed confidence in using dermoscopy and in diagnosing melanoma and other skin lesions. Every skin lesion I see means so much more now that it has a name. Great involvement from various skin cancer experts and great videos and reference materials."

- P. Ishri Nurse
