Is male sexual dysfunction caused by drinking?

Patient's question:

Everyone has sexual dysfunction. I want to know if it's caused by drinking?

Doctor's answer:

Excessive alcohol consumption can lead to sexual dysfunction, which falls under the category of excretory sexual dysfunction. For non-alcohol (alcohol means alcohol poisoning) men, consuming as little as 200 milliliters of alcohol daily can result in reduced testosterone levels in the blood. Heavy drinking can further cause alcoholic gonadal dysfunction in men, testicular atrophy, testosterone decline, decreased libido, premature ejaculation, and ultimately, infertility. Therefore, alcohol poses significant harm to male sexual function.
