Erectile Dysfunction
ED is most often caused by organic (physical) causes. Psychiatric conditions may be associated with the loss of erections or the actual cause of ED. Organic causes include neurological diseases, vascular diseases, penile injury, or hormone deficiency. Diabetes is often associated with ED.
Treatment options might include correcting hormone deficiency/imbalance, changing certain medications, oral and injectable erectile aid medicines, and surgical prosthesis implantation surgery.
Another medical condition that may cause ED is Peyronies Disease.
Peyronies Disease
Peyronies Disease is a condition where scar tissue develops in the penile tissue causing the penis to bend during erections. The cause of this condition in most cases is uncertain, however, some patients have a history of penile injury. Often, the scarring is thought to be caused by an immune inflammatory reaction. It can cause painful erections and erectile dysfunction. Mild cases can usually be treated conservatively while more severe cases can require surgery.
