What nursing diagnoses are indicated related to the male genitourinary system for this client?

You are working in the clinic and have just walked in to see a 70-year-old male client. During the health history, the client tells you that he has been concerned about some changes that he has noticed over the past few years. This includes having to get up more frequently to urinate at night and that his penis seems to be somewhat smaller. He also tells you that it is taking him longer to get sexually aroused than it used to when he was younger. He tells you that he is a little embarrassed to talk about this, but just wants to make sure that everything is all right with him. He reports that he has no other concerns or problems at this time. While assessing the client, you note these findings as well. The client is otherwise healthy with all assessment findings within normal limits. Step 2 Respond to the following discussion questions.
