Erectile dysfunction has been a historical plague of men. As a result, men have fought back, producing a wide range of impotence cures.
Difficulty in the bedroom can be caused by a number of psychological problems such as stress, and doctors believe that physical situations, such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, atherosclerosis (the buildup of fatty tissues on arterial walls, blocking blood flow), and actual physical injury of the penis make up at least 70% of erectile dysfunction cases.
Lifestyle choices, such as the frequent use of tobacco and alcohol products, as well as a slothful exercise regiment, can add to the proclivity and severity of erectile dysfunction.
The agonizing realization that, no matter how sexually aroused a man may be, he may not be able to produce an erection, is rapidly moving from nightmare to distant memory for many men. In addition, the once anguishing stigma attached to erectile dysfunction as the old man's diseases has now taken on a young and new face.
Whatever the cause, it is important to note that, if erectile dysfunction occurs in an otherwise healthy man, it may be a symptom of cardiovascular disease, and so a doctor should be consulted at the earliest convenience.
