Symptom #10: Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction or impotence describes the inability to develop or maintain a penile erection during intimate activity. There can be psychological consequences that result in issues with relationships and self confidence. Erectile dysfunction can be caused by psychological and organic causes.
Some of the organic causes include poorly controlled diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hormonal insufficiencies, neurological issues, medication side effects, and more. Erectile dysfunction can be managed using medications such as sildenafil, penile prosthesis, and injections into the penis.
