Men helping mates in time of need

March 2 2005

Are you:

• Male and aged between 45 and 75?
• Without a diagnosis of cancer?
• Willing to complete five confidential surveys over 18 months?

If yes, then please participate in a research project investigating sexual function problems among men with and without prostate cancer.

The research aims to determine the incidence of erectile dysfunction among males living in Australia and to gain information about the quality of life of men with and without erectile function problems.

No individual will be identifiable from the results.

The research is being undertaken by Fiona Newton (PhD candidate), under the supervision of Associate Professor Mark Frydenberg, Department of Surgery, Dr Sue Burney and Professor Kim Ng, Department of Psychology and Dr Jeremy Millar, The William Buckland Radiotherapy Clinic, Alfred Hospital.
