Patient's question:
I want to know what are the causes of erectile dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the etiology of erectile dysfunction is complex, and research on its pathological mechanisms is gradually improving. The exact pathogenesis is still not entirely clear. According to the causes of erectile dysfunction, it can be divided into three major categories: psychological, organic, and iatrogenic. Treatment for erectile dysfunction should be tailored to the severity of the condition. The most important point is to identify the underlying cause and provide targeted treatment. For individuals with organic diseases, treatment should focus on the primary condition. For cases caused by medication, the drug should be discontinued or replaced with another. Surgical intervention by vascular surgery may be considered for vascular erectile dysfunction.
