Erectile Dysfunction Causes and Treatments

Erectile dysfunction, or impotence, is a pathological condition characterized by the inability to achieve or maintain a long-lasting healthy erection. Impotence is a fairly widespread phenomenon that usually affects one out of ten men over the age of 40. Erectile dysfunction affects even younger males, and you can find more information about this topic in our previous article, "Erectile dysfunction at a young age."

Symptoms & Causes of Erectile Dysfunction

The probability of detecting erectile dysfunction in a man aged 40-50 years is 40%, 50-60 years old - 50%, over 60 years old - 70%. Based on many studies, impotence in 80% of cases is the result of certain diseases of somatic etiology. Previously, it was believed that the main cause of erectile dysfunction was a psychological disorder. However, modern medicine defines three main types of impotence: psychogenic, physiogenic, and mixed. The most common causes of erectile dysfunction are physiogenic, due to certain diseases of somatic etiology or aging.

The development of physiogenic erectile dysfunction occurs due to the appearance of various kinds of diseases (approximately 80% of all cases). Also, impotence can develop as a complication of the disease. The main role in the development of erectile dysfunction is given to arterial hypertension. Hypertension is characterized by increased vascular tone. Because an erection involves filling the cavernous bodies (cavernous organs) of the penis with blood, the vessels that supply it must be in good condition. Blood flow through the vessels decreases in the presence of arterial hypertension, resulting in a violation or complete absence of erection.

Diseases that lead to impotence include:

• Inflammatory – prostatitis,
• Mechanical - Peyronie's disease,
• Post-surgical - radical prostatectomy,
• Occlusive vascular – atherosclerosis,
• General condition - chronic renal failure,
• Neurogenic - common sclerosis,
• Endocrine - diabetes mellitus.

Diabetes mellitus and atherosclerosis play a significant role in the development of impotence, since due to the appearance of plaques in the arteries, the same effect is observed as with hypertension. Ischemic heart disease is another reason for the appearance of this disease in men. Also, the presence of erectile dysfunction may be a reason to suspect the presence of one of the above diseases that occur in a latent form. In addition, injuries (such as pelvic fractures) and the use of antihypertensive drugs can lead to impotence.

Impotence Treatment Options

Treatment of erectile dysfunction (impotence) requires an appropriate early approach, the result of which is a full-fledged sexual life for both a man and his partner. Among a number of methods aimed at eliminating the root cause of the erectile dysfunction, we can distinguish:

• erection drug therapy
• psychosexual therapy
• vacuum erection therapy or surgery

Erection drugs have proven to be the most effective and available treatment for erectile dysfunction. All active ingredients in erectile dysfunction medications are vasodilators, causing blood vessels to dilate. It results from the relaxation of smooth muscle cells within the vessel walls. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors, which promote strong erection.

Since Viagra's discovery in late 1990s, many new effective Viagra generic forms have been developed. These male enhancement pills are characterized by higher effectiveness, low toxicity, high speed, and a long duration of action. A perfect example is Kamagra, a Sildenafil Citrate based pill, manufactured by Ajanta Pharma.
