Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the inability to develop and/or maintain an erection during sexual performance. Male sexual arousal is a complex process that involves the brain, hormones, emotions, nerves, muscles, and blood vessels. Physical conditions like circulation problems, drug-related side effects, and hormonal imbalances, can be causes. ED can also result from stress and mental health concerns.

If you’ve been diagnosed by your doctor with ED, you join a club with millions of members, whose ages range from their 20s and into their 80s or more. In fact, Erectile Dysfunction affects 40-70% of men depending on your age.

Common causes include:

• Heart disease
• High cholesterol
• High blood pressure
• Diabetes
• Obesity
• Certain prescription medications
• Low testosterone
• Tobacco use
• Alcoholism
• Surgeries of the pelvic area
• Peyronie’s Disease (scar tissue within the penis)
• Depression, anxiety, or other mental health conditions
• Stress
