Premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction can arise from a mix of psychological, biological, and lifestyle factors. Understanding these causes can help guide appropriate treatment and management.
Premature Ejaculation (PE) Causes
- Psychological factors such as stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship issues often play a significant role.
- Biological factors include hormonal imbalances, abnormal neurotransmitter activity, or infections/inflammation of the prostate or urethra.
- Other contributors may be early sexual experiences, performance anxiety, or certain medications.
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) Causes
- Physical causes include cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, hormonal disorders like low testosterone, and neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease.
- Psychological causes overlap with PE and include stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship problems.
- Lifestyle factors like smoking, excessive alcohol use, drug abuse, and lack of exercise can also contribute.
- Some medications, including certain blood pressure drugs and antidepressants, may worsen ED.
When to Seek Medical Advice
- If symptoms persist and affect your quality of life, it is important to consult a doctor for a thorough evaluation to identify underlying causes.
Relevant Medical Specialties and Tests
- Urologists specialize in these conditions, and mental health professionals such as psychiatrists or psychologists may also be involved.
- Tests might include blood work to check hormone levels, cardiovascular assessments, and psychological evaluations.
Treatment Overview
- Treatment depends on the cause and may include counseling, lifestyle modifications, and medications such as phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE5) inhibitors (e.g., Suhagra-100) for erectile dysfunction.
