Understanding Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

• ED is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection. Common causes include stress, anxiety, and medical conditions like diabetes or heart disease.

Initial Steps to Take

• Consult a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis. Address lifestyle factors: reduce stress, limit alcohol, quit smoking, and exercise regularly.

Medical Evaluation

• Your doctor may recommend tests for hormone levels and check for conditions like diabetes or hypertension.

Treatment Options

• Medications such as Sildenafil or Tadalafil are commonly prescribed. Consider counseling or lifestyle changes if needed.

When to Seek Specialist Care

• Referral to a urologist or endocrinologist may be necessary for complex cases.

Emotional and Psychological Support

• Therapy can help if stress or anxiety contributes to ED. Keep communication open with your partner.
