What are the causes of erectile dysfunction?

Patient's question:

It's a bit hard to get erect, what is the reason for erectile dysfunction?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are many causes of sexual dysfunction, which can be classified as functional or organic. Most sexual dysfunction is functional, characterized by disturbances in cortical brain function, usually caused by abnormal sexual habits (masturbation, excessive sexual intercourse, etc.) and abnormal mental states (fear, tension, fatigue, etc.). Organic sexual dysfunction is less common, often resulting from spinal cord injuries that disrupt the function of the erectile and ejaculation centers, or chronic inflammation.
