is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for satisfactory sexual activity. It is a common condition, especially in men as they age, but it can affect men at any stage of life. ED is not considered a natural part of aging and may indicate underlying physical or psychological issues.
Psychological Causes: Stress or anxiety (including performance anxiety). Depression or other mental health disorders. Relationship problems, including poor communication or unresolved conflicts.
Quit smoking and reduce alcohol consumption
Blood tests to evaluate testosterone levels, blood sugar, cholesterol
Persistent problems achieving or maintaining an erection.
Addressing ED early is important because it can be a symptom of serious health issues, such as heart disease or diabetes. A healthcare professional can provide tailored advice and treatment.
