Erectile dysfunction is majorly a male problem that might look simple but can wreak a lot of havoc on homes and bring about pains that can take a whole life time to heal.
WHAT IS ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION?
Erectile dysfunction is the inability of the male organ(penis)to maintain an erection sufficient for satisfying sexual activity.
POSSIBLE CAUSES OF ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
1. Casual and unprotected sex: casual and unprotected sex can expose you to bacterial diseases or sexual transmitted infections, and when they are not properly treated can lead to erectile dysfunction.
2.Forceful Penetration: In some rare cases forceful penetration can cause an erectile dysfunction,If your man-hood is bent suddenly or forcefully while erect, the trauma might cause a man-hood fracture.
3.Heart disease and diabetes: Restricted blood flow caused by diabetes and atherosclerosis— hardening of the arteries — can cause erectile dysfunction.
4.Piercings: A man-hood piercing can cause skin infections.
5.Age Related Cause: Testosterone levels decline normally as you age. This might lead to a decrease in sexual interest, a need for more stimulation to achieve and maintain an erection, a less forceful ejaculation and a need for more time before you can achieve another erection.
6.Neurological conditions: Stroke, spinal cord and back injuries, multiple sclerosis and dementia can affect the transfer of nerve impulses from the brain to the man-hood, causing erectile dysfunction.
7.Psychological problems: Depression can cause a loss of libido. Likewise, if you experience an erection problem, you might be concerned that it’ll happen again — causing anxiety or depression. This can compound the problem and lead to impotence.Trauma — such as child abuse — can lead to pain associated with sex.
8.Hormone levels: Hormone imbalances, such as testosterone deficiency or too much of the hormone prolactin, have been linked to erectile dysfunction.
9.Smoking. Smoking doubles your risk of erectile dysfunction.
10.Certain medications and treatments. Certain medications and treatments can affect your man-hood health. For example, surgical removal of the prostate gland (radical prostatectomy) and surrounding tissue as treatment for prostate cancer might cause urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction.
