Sometimes, males encounter the problem of erection dysfunction. A man who has a normal sex drive can also face this problem. This problem prevents one from having successful intercourse. Men of all ages can suffer from this problem. Under this condition, a male is not able to hold an erection for enough time.
Causes of Erection Dysfunction:
Clogged Arteries
When plaque builds up in the arteries, then one suffers from the problem of clogged arteries. Cholesterol, fatty substances, and cellular waste all make plaque. Due to this, the blood flow to the penis gets restricted, and a male suffers from erectile dysfunction.
Heart Disease
Any problem that affects the structure and functioning of the heart is termed as heart disease. Heart disease happens when there is a formation of plaque in the arteries that results in the reduction of blood flow to the heart. Erection is possible only by having a healthy blood flow.
Atrial Flutter
Under this condition, the upper chamber of the heart starts to beat too fast due to abnormal heart rhythms. This happens when there is an occurrence of a short circuit in the heart and due to this problem also erectile dysfunction problems can occur as it is related to heart.
Diabetes
When the body is not able to produce enough amounts of insulin or is not able to use insulin properly, then the problem of diabetes happens. Diabetes has deleterious repercussions on other organs also. Erection dysfunction can happen due to diabetes as nerves or blood vessels can get damaged due to high glucose levels in the body. Diabetes can result in high blood pressure or heart problems, owing to which the problem of erectile dysfunction can happen.
Hormonal Imbalance
Having hormones in large amounts or in smaller amounts in your body is known as hormonal imbalance. Low testosterone, thyroid issues, prolactin issues and steroid abuse are some of the hormonal causes of erectile dysfunction.
High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure happens when the force of blood is too high that pushes against your arteries’ walls. This condition can also cause erectile dysfunction as the blood vessels present in the reproductive system get damaged.
Stress and Anxiety
People in this modern era take a lot of stress, even small things. A person feels irritated, gets tired quickly and is not able to concentrate on things properly. Your testosterone gets reduced due to stress. Cortisol is released by your body’s HPA axis due to stress. Blood pressure and blood sugar levels get increased due to cortisol.
