Erectile dysfunction is a condition in which the male is unable to reach or hold an erection for healthy sexual intercourse.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is also known as impotence. It is normal to not have a firm erection sometimes but if this issue persists then it takes the form of erectile dysfunction.
Causes of erectile dysfunction
It is important to note that there are physical as well as psychological causes or it can also be a combination of both. Some of the causes are mentioned below.
Physical causes
- Cardiovascular Problems- Heart problems are one of the major causes of erectile dysfunction. During high blood pressure, the presence of heart disease or atherosclerosis, the blood supply to the penis is disturbed which leads to trouble in having an erection.
- Diabetes- It causes harm to blood vessels and to nerves which prevents erection.
- Neurological Problems- Various neurological problems for instance, Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis causes hindrance in nerve signals in the brain and penis.
- Obesity- Obesity disturbs hormones which leads to an insufficient supply of blood to the penis, causing erection difficulty.
Psychological Causes
- Mental Stress: It affects brain signalling which in turn leads to a lack of blood flow to the penis.
- Relationship Problems- Having issues with your partner also affects the emotional and mental state of your body leading to disturbed sexual feelings. This in turn leads to erectile dysfunction.
- Depression- It causes an imbalance in brain chemicals which leads to erectile dysfunction.
