Erection
Recent studies have shown that the number of men, all over the world, suffering from Erection related disorders is growing by leaps and bounds. While the process of achieving an erection might be complex, the reasons for not being to attain an Erection, might be even more complex.
Mentioned here are a few such reasons that could lead to conditions that cause the failure of an Erection. Cause for the failure of an erection: Diabetes: Diabetes often causes nerve and artery damage which makes it difficult to attain an Erection. As per a study conducted by the National Institutes of Health, 35% to 50 % diabetic men tend to suffer from erection related conditions.
Cause for the failure of an erection: Kidney diseases: Conditions of the kidney can also lead to erection related conditions. Actually, kidney conditions affect the hormonal levels in the body, along with the circulatory system, nervous functions and the energy levels of the body. All of these often reduce the ability of men to attain an Erection.
Cause for the failure of an Erection: Neurological diseases: Various neurological diseases (conditions relating to the brain and nerves) can cause Erection related conditions. It is quite common to see men suffering from stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS), Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, to suffer from erection related conditions. This happens due to the interruptive transmission of nerve impulses between the penis and the brain.
Cause for the failure of an Erection: Vascular diseases: Diseases that cause problems with the blood vessels, also known as vascular diseases can cause erection related conditions. Such condition can include atherosclerosis, hypertension, and high cholesterol. Research studies have shown that almost 70% vascular diseases can lead to erection related conditions.
Cause for the failure of an Erection: Prostate cancer and Prostate enlargement. While prostate cancer does not cause erection related conditions, the treatment for the cancer, quite often does. Prostate enlargement can also lead to erection related problems.
Cause for the failure of an Erection: Surgery: Quite often surgeries can go wrong, or in cases, where they do not go wrong, they might cause erection related problems. For instance, surgeries performed for prostate cancer and cancer in the bladder can lead to Erection related conditions. This happens because of the removal of nerves and tissues around the affected area.
Cause for the failure of an erection: Hormonal imbalances: Various imbalances of the hormones such as thyroid hormones, prolactin and testosterone can lead to Erection related conditions. These hormonal imbalances can be resultants of tumor of the pituitary gland, diseases of the kidney or liver, or the hormonal induced treatment of prostate cancer.
