Abstract

The psychological conditions of healthcare professionals deteriorate during the COVID-19 outbreak, which is effective worldwide. Sexual activity is a natural part of human existence and its effectiveness is recognized as a key indicator of good health and quality of life. In this study, we aimed to analyze the influence of COVID-19 on sexual activity in four recovered male patients. These males showed deterioration in all elements of sexual function. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that we are reporting from Kolkata, India, that used validated assessment to document sexual functioning in males following post-COVID-19 illness.
