Alyaa Gad - Erectile Dysfunction

Absent or weak erection is a problem that many men may face at a certain point in their lives. Every man knows his body and in case of absent erection this can be due to physical exhaustion. However, if this problem affects your sex life, then we must identify the cause and treat it accordingly.

First of all, you must know that there is a close relation between the nervous system, circulatory system and reproductive system. The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord and nerves. The circulatory system consists of the heart and blood vessels. And the reproductive system contains the penis and other organs.

Diabetes is a chronic disease that you can live with normally, provided that you live a healthy lifestyle and stick to your medications. If you fail to do so, complications will occur, and one of these complications is erectile dysfunction.

If you have heart diseases because of poor circulation, hypertension or use antihypertensive drugs or histaminic drugs, all these will affect your circulation

Remember that drinking alcohol excessively can weaken your erections

When you consult your doctor regarding erection difficulties he will do several tests:
