What factors can cause the occurrence of sexual dysfunction?

Patient's question:

Taking medication to treat an illness has resulted in my penis being unable to erect normally. I'm not even married yet, what should I do? What factors can cause the occurrence of sexual dysfunction?

Doctor's answer:

Sexual function is a complex physiological process. Maintaining normal sexual function requires the coordination of multiple body systems, involving the nervous system, cardiovascular system, endocrine system, and reproductive system working in harmony. Additionally, it requires a good mental state and healthy psychology. When abnormalities occur in these systems or in mental and psychological aspects again, it will affect the implementation of normal sexual life, impact the quality of sexual life, and manifest as sexual dysfunction. Overall, sexual dysfunction can be broadly classified into two major categories: functional sexual dysfunction and organic sexual dysfunction.
