A 29-year-old graduate student states that he is able to achieve an erection and ejaculate during sexual intercourse; however, he does not experience any pleasurable sensation of orgasm. He is otherwise healthy and is not on any medications. What is the most likely cause of his problem?
- Androgen insufficiency
- Endocrine dysfunction
- Peyronie disease
- Psychogenic
- Sexually transmitted infection (STI) - ANSWER-d.
Psychogenic
Rationale: Lack of orgasm with ejaculation is usually not a
physiological or structural issue, rather psychogenic in 1 / 4

nature. It is fairly uncommon but does occur, and clinicians should be aware of the problem and take a thorough history to ascertain the roots of this disorder.
Multiple processes must take place in order for a male to sustain an erection. Various cues stimulate sympathetic outflow from higher brain centers to the T11-L2 levels of the spinal cord and parasympathetic outflow from S2 to S4 reflex arcs. Local vasodilatation within the penis erectile tissue results from increased levels of which of the following?
- Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
- Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GRH)
- Luteinizing hormone (LH)
- Nitric oxide (NO) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate
- Testosterone - ANSWER-d. Nitric oxide (NO) and cyclic
(cGMP)
guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)
Rationale: NO and cGMP are powerful vasodilators that are
crucial in the process of an erection. Both allow venous blood to accumulate within the corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosum making the penis rigid.

The human papillomavirus (HPV) can cause genital warts in males and females as well as cervical cancer in females.Vaccination against HPV is available and should be offered to males between what ages?
- 6-9 months
- 1-3 years
- 5-7 years
- 9-21 years
- 30-50 years - ANSWER-d. 9-21 years
Rationale: The current recommendation for HPV
vaccination for males starts at age 9 years and continues until age 26 years when males are most likely to be exposed to the virus. HPV can cause genital warts in both males and females, cervical cancer in females, and has also been linked to other types of cancers such as oropharyngeal cancers.Current literature suggests that age groups other than 9-21 years do not have any significant benefit or need for the HPV vaccination.
A 32-year-old male complains of a painless, cystic mass just above his left testicle. During the physical examination, a strong flashlight is placed behind the scrotum through the area in question and transillumination is noted. What is the most likely diagnosis? 3 / 4
4
- Direct hernia
- Indirect hernia
- Spermatocele
- Testicular tumor
- Varicocele - ANSWER-c. Spermatocele
Rationale: A spermatocele is a benign, typically painless,
movable cystic mass just above the testis that will typically transilluminate with a strong light source. Direct hernia and indirect hernia are incorrect as they will typically contain abdominal contents such as bowel that do not transilluminate. A direct hernia does not produce a mass in the scrotum. Testicular tumor is incorrect. A testicular tumor is a solid mass that will not transilluminate. A varicocele is incorrect as it is a dilatation or varicosities of veins of the spermatic cord that are filled with blood and therefore will not transilluminate.
A 25-year-old graduate student presents to the clinic complaining of scrotal pain, which has been increasing over the past 2 days. He is sexually active and has had unprotected intercourse with multiple partners in the past couple of weeks.On examination, some mild to moderate swelling of the scrotum on the right and tenderness with palpation of the right testicle are notes. What is the most likely diagnosis?
