The inability to achieve and maintain an erection that is strong enough for sex is known as erectile dysfunction (impotence).
Impotence is another term that has been used occasionally but is now less common.
SYMPTOMS OF ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
The following persistent signs of erectile dysfunction:
- Trouble getting an erection
- Trouble keeping an erection
- Reduced sexual desire
CAUSES OF ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
Erectile dysfunction can be the result of a problem with any of these, just as stress and mental health issues can cause or worsen erectile dysfunction. Male sexual arousal is a complex process that involves the brain, hormones, emotions, nerves, muscles, and blood vessels.
Erectile dysfunction can occasionally be brought on by both psychological and physical conditions. For example, a minor physical condition that inhibits sexual response may result in anxiety about maintaining an erection, which can trigger or exacerbate erectile dysfunction.
PHYSICAL CAUSE OF ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
Physical factors are a common cause of erectile dysfunction, and they include the following:
- Heart disease
- Clogged blood vessels (atherosclerosis)
- High cholesterol
- High blood pressure
- Diabetes
- Obesity
- High blood pressure, elevated insulin levels, abdominal fat, and elevated cholesterol are all symptoms of the metabolic syndrome.
- Parkinson’s disease
- Multiple sclerosis
- Certain prescription medications
- Tobacco use
- Scar tissue growing inside the penis is a symptom of Peyronie’s disease.
- substance abuse, including alcoholism,
- Sleep disorders
- treatment options for enlarged or cancerous prostate
- Surgical procedures or wounds to the spinal column or pelvis
- Low testosterone
PSYCHOLOGICAL CAUSE OF ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
Inhibiting sexual feelings can lead to or exacerbate erectile dysfunction. A number of things can do this, including:
- Other mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, etc.
- Stress
- relationship issues brought on by stress, inadequate communication, or other issues
RISK FACTORS
Erections may take longer to form and may not be as firm as they once were as people age. Erections may require more direct contact with the penis.
Erectile dysfunction can be caused by a number of risk factors, including:
- Medical conditions-especially diabetes or cardiovascular disease
- Tobacco use-which, over time, can result in chronic health conditions that impair blood flow to the veins and arteries and cause erectile dysfunction
- being obese, in particular,
- Certain medical treatments-such as radiation therapy for cancer or prostate surgery
- Injuries-especially if they harm the erection-controlling arteries or nerves.
- Medications-medications for high blood pressure, pain, and prostate conditions, such as antidepressants, antihistamines, and similar things
- Mental health issues like stress, anxiety, or depression
- Use of drugs and/or alcohol, particularly if a person has used drugs for a long time or is a heavy drinker
COMPLICATIONS OF ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
Erectile dysfunction complications may take the following forms:
- An unsatisfactory sex life
- Stress or anxiety
- Embarrassment or low self-esteem
- Relationship problems
- Your partner’s inability to become pregnant
PREVENTION OF ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
Making healthy lifestyle decisions and managing any underlying medical conditions are the best ways to prevent erectile dysfunction. For instance:
- Control chronic health conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or other diseases.
- Keep up with routine exams and screenings for diseases.
- Stop smoking, drink in moderation, or don’t.
- Make an effort to calm yourself down.
- To address issues with depression, anxiety, or other mental health, seek assistance.
