Contact Z Urology if You’re Having Issues with Erectile Dysfunction

 

One of the most sensitive subjects for all men is their sexual health. Most people don’t like to admit that they have a sexual dysfunction issue. For men, it consists of being unable to obtain an erection, maintain an erection or even an overall lower sexual desire. This lower sexual desire is sometimes reinforced by the mindset of the man going through the erectile dysfunction symptoms. Erectile Dysfunction (ED) actually effects around 30 million men through the United States. However, there are solutions to fixing the issues with ED and it all comes to narrowing down the cause of it all.

 

What are the Symptoms and Causes of ED?

 

In order for a healthy erection to take place, there must be properly functioning nerves to the penis, adequate blood circulation into the penis, a stimulus from the brain and the veins within the penis must be able to hold onto the blood circulating. If any of these processes are incomplete, then you may have difficulty obtaining and maintaining an erection. Now, the causes of ED may be very vast. Your sexual health traces back to your physical and psychological health as well. Therefore, if you are experiencing any problems with any of these, then that may be the cause of erectile dysfunction. For example:

  • Physical Causes
    • Obesity
    • Diabetes
    • Alcohol or Tobacco use
    • Heart Disease
  • Psychological Causes
    • Stress
    • Depression and/or Anxiety
    • Relationship Problems

 

What are the Treatments for Erectile Dysfunction?

 

Once the source of the issue is slightly narrowed down, action may be taken to treat ED. There have been all types of successful treatments for erectile dysfunction including:

  • Penile Prosthesis
  • Medications
  • Testosterone Therapy
  • Psychological Therapy
  • Penile Injections

These are a few of the different ways that Urologists will treat a patient with erectile dysfunction. If you are suffering from, or believe to be having symptoms of ED, then contact a Z Urology as soon as possible!
