The Carolina Men's Clinic and Raleigh Clinic For Men Chipping in to End Prostate Cancer as Part of Prostate Cancer Awareness Month

RALEIGH, N.C., Sept. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Carolina Men's Clinic (http://thecarolinamensclinic.com/) and The Raleigh Clinic For Men (http://www.theraleighclinicformen.com/) want men to know a diagnosis of prostate cancer does not mean it's "game over" for sexual performance. Director Matt Gillogly and his team of sexual health specialists see prostate cancer survivors every day – and every day, those men see and feel results they never thought possible.

"The Carolina Men's Clinic and The Raleigh Clinic For Men are in the business of changing lives," says Director Matt Gillogly. "It's profoundly humbling to know that we're saving marriages and relationships. Many of our patients have exhausted all of their options. They honestly doubt we can do for them what name-brand prescriptions could not, but our better-than 92% success rate is testament to the effectiveness of our novel and personalized treatment."

In the first 18 months of operation, the clinics have treated roughly 7,000 patients, many of them recovering from prostate surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Gillogly explains that 70% of men who beat prostate cancer unfortunately never reach their previous levels of sexual performance. These clinics are slowly eroding that number, one satisfied patient at a time. Similarly, the fear of erectile dysfunction, or ED, may discourage many men from getting their prostate checked. Gillogly wants men to let go of that fear today.

According to the Prostate Cancer Foundation, 1 in 6 men will receive a prostate cancer diagnosis at some point in their lives. Nearly 30,000 men die of the disease each year, making it the second-leading cause of cancer death in American men. Early diagnosis, however, leads to a superior outcome almost every time; the 5- and 10-year survival rates following early diagnosis and treatment are 99% and 98%, respectively.

The prostate is intimately involved in human reproduction, which explains why prostate cancer, both benign and malignant, can seriously interfere with erectile function. Some of the nerve structures controlling erectile function connect directly to the prostate. Surgery, radiation and chemotherapy can damage these and other important structures. First-line treatments and surgeries for prostate cancer have become better at preserving men's sexual function, but they are still far from perfect.

The Carolina Men's Clinic and The Raleigh Clinic For Men use an approach to ED (erectile dysfunction) treatment that is a non-surgical, FDA-approved formulation that begins working in minutes. On their first office visit, new patients receive a test dose. Just as importantly, new patients also receive a PSA test, which can pick up indications of prostate cancer. The clinics can make an immediate referral to a qualified urologist should a test show a positive result.

"I want our clinics to be part of stamping out prostate cancer," concludes Gillogly. "While ED has many different causes, if we can take prostate cancer off that list, we've made huge progress for so many men."

Prospective patients who want to learn more about how the Carolina Men's Clinic and The Raleigh Clinic For Men are leading a revolution against ED and other sexual health issues are encouraged to call 704-981-0033. The clinics offer three convenient locations – The Raleigh Clinic for Men in Raleigh and the Carolina Men's Clinic in Lake Norman and South Charlotte.
