Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is the most common sexual problem that men ask their doctors about, and approximately 50% of men aged between 40-70 and 70% of men over 70 have ED. Learning about what causes ED and the options in treating it can help to empower many men to address any psychological, medical or lifestyle factors.
Understanding what happens during an er****on can help in understanding erectile dysfunction and identifying the causes of it. During arousal, the nerves release chemicals that increase the blood flow to two chambers in the p***s. An er****on happens once the chambers have filled. After or**sm, the second set of nerve signals cause the muscular tissues in the p***s to contract, and the blood is then released back into the man’s circulation.
