Muhtasari

  • In Tanzania, a 2016 study involving 18,441 men in Kinondoni District, Dar es Salaam, found that 24 per cent had experienced erectile dysfunction.
  • Studies worldwide indicate that between 30 and 60 per cent of men may experience the condition at some point, although rates vary among populations.
  • The penile implant service at Benjamin Mkapa Hospital costs approximately 10 million Tanzanian shillings, including medical tests, the implant device and surgery.
  • More importantly, it reinforces a simple message: erectile dysfunction is a medical condition, not a source of shame and seeking treatment is an act of responsibility rather than weakness.
  • Health experts, how ever, say erectile dysfunction is a medical condition that can be treated and should not be silently endured.
