The mean scores of erectile function, orgasmic function, sexual desire, intercourse satisfaction and overall satisfaction for tinnitus group were significantly lower than that for control group (p=0.0001). There was no correlation between tinnitus duration and IIEF scores (p≤0.05). There was no correlation between tinnitus severity and IIEF scores (p≤0.05). Tinnitus is not only an otologic problem but also has negative effects on quality of life.
