Causes of Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction can occur for many reasons. One factor that can contribute to the condition is age. Erectile dysfunction frequently affects men who are age 75 years or older. However, several other factors or medical conditions can lead to erectile dysfunction at any age. Other contributing factors can include:
- Obesity
- Fatigue
- Sleep disorders
- Cardiovascular disease
- Hypertension
- Diabetes
- Stress
Men who have had a stroke are also at risk of developing erectile dysfunction. Conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson’s Disease can cause erectile dysfunction, as well. Additionally, sustaining an injury to the head or spine can also lead to problems achieving or maintaining an erection. Other possible causes of erectile dysfunction include tobacco use, excessive alcohol consumption, illicit drug use, and depression.
Treatment Options
We offer several methods for treating erectile dysfunction at our office in Weston. The right treatment approach will depend on the specific factors that could be contributing to the development of erectile dysfunction. If it is due to a medical condition, such as diabetes or hypertension, treating the underlying medical concern can often resolve the sexual issue. If the problem stems from psychological factors, such as depression or relationship issues, then counseling can be effective.
Another approach to treating erectile dysfunction is to implement lifestyle changes when the problem is caused by weight, fatigue, stress, or the use of certain substances. Getting regular exercise, making dietary changes, and limiting or stopping the use of tobacco, alcohol, or other substances can be extremely effective. In other cases, medications like Viagra or Cialis might be prescribed. Dr. Tran can develop an individualized treatment plan for you.
