Accepted Answer

No: Erectile dysfunction (ed) is not painful. It is simply the inability to obtain or maintain an erection sufficient enough for sexual intercourse.

Question 5

how to cure erectile dysfunction ?

Accepted Answer

Not an easy answer: Erectile dysfunction can have many causes.
Many of our treatments address the symptom and not the cause.
As i tell my patients "the penis is the barameter of the health of the vascular system"
unfortunately many health care providers(hcp) do not make that connection.
You shoul consult a hcp that sepecializes in andrology.

Time to see a doctor: To assess if a person's erections have weakened, he should visit a primary doctor, who can check for possible causes: stress, depression, diabetes, high blood pressure, low testosterone, artery disease, high cholesterol, smoking, older age, etc...

Question 8

is teenage erectile dysfunction common?

Accepted Answer

Depends : It depends what you mean. Many boys expect themselves to be sexual athletes like the porn actors they see on the internet and think if their sexual responses are not as quick, intense or sustained that something is wrong. This is a vicious circle because anxiety  is the most common cause of erectile dysfunction in physically healthy men.

Question 10

can young men get erectile dysfunction?

Accepted Answer

Yes: While there are many reasons why men get erectile dysfunction, when i see men in their late teens and 20s have erectile dysfunction, there is often a psychological component to it.  Drugs such as anti-depressants, use of illicit drugs such as pot, alcohol abuse, as well as chronic diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure can all contribute to erectile dysfunction at this age.
