Erectile dysfunction treatment

Erectile dysfunction causes

Erectile dysfunction can be caused by a number of biological, psychological, and social factors.
The majority of cases erectile dysfunction is caused by physical factors such as diabetes and nerve damage.

It can also be caused by psychological issues, or the use of certain drugs. In most cases it is not caused by low sexual desire. Chronic alcohol abuse is more likely to impair sexual functioning on a regular basis due to nerve, testicular, and liver damage.

Smoking causes damage to blood vessels and nerves in the penis, affecting erectile function. Psychological factors such stress, anxiety, depression, and lack of sleep also lead to development of erectile dysfunction.

Signs and symptoms of erectile dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction symptoms are inability to obtain a full erection and inability to maintain an erection for sexual performance.

Erectile dysfunction treatment

Drugs such as Viagra, Cialis, and  Levitra have revolutionized the treatment of erectile dysfunction. These medications work by enhancing the effects of nitric oxide, a chemical that relaxes muscles in the penis, leading to increased blood flow.

Arousal and stimulation is still required for an erection, but the drug assists the physical aspect.

Do not use these medications if you have had a heart attack, stroke, or other serious heart problems, or if you are taking drugs for angina (nitroglycerine).

Yohimbe is a plant-based drug that dilates blood vessels and increases circulation. It has been shown in several studies to improve erectile dysfunction. Yohimbe was previously available over the counter, but is now available by prescription only due to numerous side effects such as nervousness, irritability, insomnia, and increased blood pressure.

These drugs should be avoided by those with heart or kidney disease.
Other medical options include injectable drugs, implants, hormone therapy, vacuum devices, surgery to repair blood vessels or nerves, and counselling.
