Avatar m tn Well, uncontrolled diabetes and high blood pressure are both precursors of erectile dysfunction. Also, some medications taken for high blood pressure can cause erectile dysfunction.

Please consult your doctor regarding this. Take care!

Avatar m tn I have been taking medine for last 3 month. recently I felt that I have erectile dysfunction. is is curable ...I am a bit scared.
Avatar m tn However, if a man wakes up in a dreamless night, and sees he has less than a full hard-on, and does not feel much sensitivity in his penis; then it’s not down to internet porn-related erectile dysfunction, is it (?), as there is no initiating visual arousal. Lack of physical sensation in the genitals is a ‘physical’ problem, not a psychological one. Please read, all you psychosexual councillors. Doctors ridiculize the problem.

Avatar n tn Erectile dysfunction at your age would be extremely rare and like your doctor said, it tends to be psychological. Your mind has a lot of power over what happens to your body physically. If you feel nervous at all, upset, stressed out, etc all of this can affect erections and cause you to lose it. There really isn't a quick fix, but it'd be good to try to think about what else may be going on in your life.

And yeah, I can't imagine this new batch of anxiety is going to help with the ED.
