Erectile dysfunction occurs when you have trouble getting an erection or when you can’t maintain an erection that’s hard enough for satisfactory sexual intercourse. Up to 30 million men have erectile dysfunction today.
Many men have erection issues occasionally, but erectile dysfunction happens frequently and sometimes worsens over time.
Erectile dysfunction can happen because of physical problems, relationship issues, mental health issues, or a combination.
Physical damage in the pelvis — for example, prostate cancer surgery — may also affect your ability to get an erection. Low testosterone levels may also contribute to erectile dysfunction.
Some of the primary risk factors for erectile dysfunction include:
Many of these conditions go hand-in-hand. For example, metabolic syndrome is the combination of high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high cholesterol, and extra weight. This cluster of conditions increases your risk for not only heart disease, stroke, and Type 2 diabetes, but also erectile dysfunction.
If you’re having erectile issues frequently, or if you have problems often enough to affect your happiness and quality of life, call Modern Urology to get help.
While it’s common to experience erectile problems occasionally, erectile dysfunction isn’t a hazard of aging. It’s a health problem with many effective solutions — and there’s no reason to live with it any longer.
Your treatment depends on the root causes of your erectile dysfunction. Your Modern Urology provider performs a range of diagnostic lab tests, vascular imaging tests, and other types of tests to find the reason that you’re having erectile problems.
Upon diagnosis, your provider recommends a customized treatment plan to help you overcome contributing health problems. Your treatment may include oral medications, testosterone replacement therapy, self-administered injections, or other approaches.
If more conservative erectile dysfunction treatments don’t work, your provider may recommend advanced options like penile implants to help you restore your sex life.
