Hello
Welcome to HCM!!!
I would suggest you to go in for repeat LDL levels. People with high LDL and use of rozavel too can develop erectile dysfunction. First treat your LDL if it has jumped despite treatment. If LDL is under tight control then it could be rozavel. Ask you physician to change the drug if possible. If it is not possible your psychiatrist can increase the dose of sildenafil. If no benefits with these then get you investigated for other reasons of ED
I hope this helps
God Bless
