What causes erectile dysfunction?There are many causes that will cause ED, but they are either psychological or physiologic. The physiological will include anything like drugs, trauma, diabetes, or medical conditions. ED is not a natural aspect of aging, however, it is more common in aging men. If you have ED it could be because of many things. You may have a vascular disease that will reduce the blood flow throughout the body. You are at risk if you are smoking, have high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. You may also have diabetes. Diabetes is the number one reason for ED. IT will effect the nerves and the blood flow that is needed for any men to obtain an erection. A simple imbalance of hormones can do it as well. You will find that the lower your testosterone gets the less aroused you are able to become. This is caused by malfunctioning organs or glands. Your liver or kidney can cause you to have a lack of sex drive. You should also know that over 200 medications have ED listed as a side effect. Medication like sedatives, tranquilizers, high blood pressure, heart medications, and antidepressants are among them. Injuries that affect your spine or brain will also interfere with the process. Diseases like parkinsonian or alzheimer's disease are among the many that will interfere in the process of reaching and obtaining an erection. If you have any trauma to the region you will also have a chance for ED because some nerve endings could be damaged in the process. Peyronie's disease will also cause you to have ED. It is a rare condition that is when the erectile tissue is inflamed. You might also get ED by certain mental issues like depression, guilt, stress, some anxiety, or any type of feeling that seems to be overpowering like worrying about something. |
