Getting and keeping an erection that lasts long enough to have successful sex is dependent on the blood flowing smoothly and easily through the penis. Any health condition that interferes with the blood flow to the penis may lead to ED. Men with high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or diabetes are at greater risk for ED than men who do not have these conditions.
Many other medical, physical, and lifestyle issues can also affect a man's ability to get or keep an erection, including:
- Smoking
- Lack of exercise
- Obesity
- Heavy drinking
- Side effects from medication
|
- Lack of sleep
- Stress
- Depression
- Spinal cord injury
- Prostate surgery
|
There's a medicine that can help treat mild to severe ED. Ask your doctor if LEVITRA is right for you.
