Erectile Dysfunction

There are numerous physical and psychological factors which can cause erectile dysfunction. The process of achieving an erection is also biologically complicated and therefore there are many contributing factors which increase the likelihood of developing erectile dysfunction.

Physical factors can include:

Hypertension (or High Blood Pressure), Diabetes, Hyperlipidaemia (or High Cholesterol), Smoking, Alcohol consumption (alcohol damages the nerve endings leading to the penis, whilst also reducing the levels of the male hormone testosterone and increase the levels of the female hormone oestrogen in the body), Excessive cycling (for prolonged periods of time), Renal impairment (or Chronic Kidney Disease), Medication interactions (or side effects of medication such as antidepressants), Psychological factors include:, Depression. Anxiety, Stress and Psychosis.

Although there are many possible causes related to the development of erectile dysfunction, the primary cause for more than 70% of men is a narrowing of the arteries located in the penis. This is commonly related to high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and smoking.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) treatments such as Viagra (Sildenafil) belong to a group of chemical compounds known as PDE5 inhibitors. These drugs work by widening the blood vessels (arteries)within the penis, enabling greater more effective blood flow to the penis when aroused. The increased blood flow to the penis is what allows you to produce and maintain a strong firm erection necessary for sexual intercourse.
