Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

You seem to be suffering from erectile dysfunction.

The most common causes of erectile dysfunction include:

A. Stress: This is the most common cause of erectile dysfunction.

B. Issues with your wife: I would suggest that you try and strengthen your relationship with your wife. Try to strengthen your emotional bond and try and connect at different levels. Intimacy also helps in this regard. Try to indulge in a long foreplay and try to communicate freely with your wife.

C. Diabetes: This is a common organic cause of erectile dysfunction. However, I would recommend that you get yourself screened for diabetes under guidance of your physician or Urologist (using tests like fasting blood glucose and post prandial blood sugar) only after ruling out above mentioned causes.

I hope, I have answered your query. Please accept my answer if you have no follow up queries.

Regards.

Dont have any of the above symptoms as mentioned in A B or C. Will check myself for option C but its unlikely to be diabetes also.

Can there be any other reason and can we have a remedy to resolve the problem ?

Is there any way to get back to the earlier level?

Hi,

Thanks for reverting.

There are several causes of erectile dysfunction other than those mentioned above. These include:

•     Hypertension (high blood pressure)
•     Atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries)
•     Alcohol and tobacco use
•     Some prescription medications, such as antidepressants, pain medicine and medicine for high blood pressure
•     Fatigue
•     Brain or spinal-cord injuries
•     Hypogonadism (which leads to lower testosterone levels)
•     Multiple sclerosis
•     Parkinson's disease
•     Radiation therapy to the testicles
•     Stroke
•     Some types of prostate or bladder surgery
However, it is unlikely that you are suffering from any of these issues. I would like to reemphasize that there are many times we are not aware of the stress and relationship issues as we lead our busy lives and these issues become an integral part of our lives.
I would suggest that you introspect and find out the real reason.
Till then, I suggest that you visit a prescribe drugs known as phosphodiesterase inhibitors like sildenafil and vardenafil. Since these are prescription drugs and they can be prescribed only after a thorough evaluation and appropriate investigations, I would suggest that you see your primary care physician for this.

I hope I have answered your query. Please accept my answer if you have no further answers.

Regards
