Abstract

Background: Male sexual disorders remain taboo, particularly in a developing country like India. The affected census is under-depicted as of privacy issues, unawareness about the disease complex, a phobia about being affected, and many more counting on it, with advancing digitalization and many friendly social media platform, the affected individual logs onto the cybernet for perception, and here comes the role of content reliability.
Materials and Methods: In April 2022, we seek the most accountable social media platforms - with keywords of "Male Sexual Disorders", "Erectile Dysfunction", "Premature Ejaculation" and "Male sex Problems" using BuzzSumo, an online analytic tool. The collected content was evaluated by two urology residents on ground of European Association of Urology(EAU) Guidelines 2022, and for discrepancies, the final decision was established by a senior specialist.
Results: Out of 191 included videos, 62.3% were videos uploaded by specialist and their mean duration was 7.2 minutes. 67.53% of uploaded videos explained general information (n=129, 67.53%) and provide information about diagnosis (28.7%) and treatment (78.01%), among which maximum videos favored medical management (97.9%). 158 inclusion videos (82.72%) were following EAU guidelines. In excluded videos, videos on alternative medicines shared maximum number (45.63%). Videos with animation and sound were more appealing based on views and likes, although the contribution of animated videos was rather less in number (25.65%).
Conclusion: The content with delusive information, small size samples, and individual opinion are having more luring appeasement. so, this study firms its ground by stressing verity of content and need for scrutiny by medical community.
