Abstract

Background Sexual dysfunction is a distressing side effect of standard therapies in prostate cancer patients. Objective This systematic review provides an actual overview at the influence of exercise therapy on sexual dysfunction due to standard therapies in prostate cancer patients. Method A systematic review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. The literature search was performed by 2 independent researchers using Medline/Pubmed and PEDro, additionally the reference lists. RCT with ASCO evidence level I were included, if inclusion criteria were fulfilled. Results The publications analyzed included 17 studies with 1175 patients. 11 of those studies document significant improvement of sexual dysfunction. Conclusion Since most of the studies were not comparable, no generalized statement concerning the benefit of exercise therapy to improve sexual dysfunction in prostate cancer patients is possible. Further controlled studies on the impact of exercise training to improve sexual dysfunction in prostate cancer patients are warranted.
