What is it?
Erectile Dysfunction is the persistent difficulty in achieving or maintaining an erection firm enough for sexual activity. It’s not just a physical issue; emotional, psychological, or relational factors can also play a role. ED can impact self-esteem, relationships, and quality of life, but it is treatable with proper care.
What causes it?
ED can arise from a combination of physical and psychological causes, including:
- Medical conditions like diabetes, hypertension, or hormonal imbalances
- Side effects of certain medications or substance use (e.g., alcohol, smoking)
- Stress, anxiety, or performance pressure
- Depression or low self-confidence
- Relationship issues or unresolved emotional distress
What are the possible symptoms?
ED may present gradually or suddenly, and common symptoms include:
- Trouble getting or keeping an erection during sexual activity
- Reduced sexual desire or satisfaction
- Avoidance of intimacy due to fear of failure
- Feelings of embarrassment, shame, or frustration
- Strain in relationships due to sexual dissatisfaction
