dc.description.abstractAim: We tried to determine the frequency of co-occurrence of erectile dysfunction (ED) and Onychomycosis (OM). Material and Methods: The sociodemographic form and IIEF-5 form were filled by the male patients who were admitted to the Urology Polyclinic of Karabük University Medical Faculty with the complaints of ED between April 2019 - April 2020. The patients with ED were included in the study. All the male patients were divided into three groups as mild, moderate and severe according to ED severity. The dermatologist (H.A) examined the presence of OM by taking samples from the toenails of the male patients. Results: Looking at the IIEF-5 scores of 95 patients accepted to the study, it was found that 22 (23.1%) had mild, 20 (21%) moderate and 53 (55.9%) severe ED. Smoking history was higher in the severe ED group (p <0.001). It was found that a total of 32 (33.7%) patients had OM. However, there was no relationship between the severity of ED and the presence of OM (p> 0.114). Conclusion: Erectile dysfunction and OM disease can often be seen together. However, no relationship was found with the severity of ED.en_US
