Galen's Pathological Andrology

Abstract

Galen, who was certainly not a great amateur of women, nevertheless was interested in some disfunctions of sexual activity in men. Although he develops a theory about the problem, he is matter of fact as far as daily life is concerned, and, even if he quotes him, quite different from what Epicurus used to be.

  Key words: Andrology - Epicurus - Galen - Gonorrhea - Satyriasis
