THE GENERATIVE ORGANS. 



In reviewing this class of diseases, we have to note first, that they 

 are almost exclusively restricted to breeding animals; and, second, 

 that in keeping with the absolute difference of the organs in the male 

 and female we find two essentially distinct lists of diseases affecting 

 the two sexes. 



EXCESS OF VENEREAL DESIRE (SATYRIASIS IN MALE, OR NYMPHOMANIA 



IN FEMALE) . 



This may occur in the male from too frequent sexual inter- 

 course, or from injury and congestion of the base of the brain (vaso- 

 dilator center in the medulla) , or of the posterior end of the spinal 

 cord, or it may be kept up by congestion or inflammation of the tes- 

 ticles or of the mucous membrane covering the penis. It may be 

 manifested by a constant or frequent erection, "by attempts at sexual 

 connection, and sometimes by the discharge of semen without con- 

 nection. In bad cases the feverishness and restlessness lead to loss of 

 flesh, emaciation, and physical weakness.
