Why can't the penis get erect?

In real life, men are often very tired due to work and life, and some psychological pressure will cause some genital diseases. When the couple has sex, the penis will not be able to erect. The penis cannot be erected, which will seriously affect the normal life of the couple. It will not only lead to poor physical fitness, but also cause other complications. So what is the reason for the penis not being able to erect? Let's find out together.

1. Psychological ED refers to erectile dysfunction caused by psychological factors such as tension, stress, depression, anxiety and marital discord.

2. Organic ED

(1) Vascular causes: including any disease that may lead to decreased blood flow in the corpus cavernosum arteries of the penis, such as atherosclerosis, arterial injury, arterial stenosis, pudendal artery shunt, and abnormal heart function, or penile venous leakage caused by decreased smooth muscle in the tunica albuginea and sinus cavernosum of the penis that obstruct the closure mechanism of venous reflux.

(2) Neurological causes: Central or peripheral nerve disease or damage can lead to erectile dysfunction.

(3) Surgery and trauma: Surgery such as major vascular surgery, radical prostatectomy, radical abdominoperineal rectal cancer surgery, and pelvic fractures, lumbar compression fractures, or straddle injuries can cause damage to the blood vessels and nerves related to penile erection, leading to erectile dysfunction.

(4) Endocrine diseases, chronic diseases and long-term use of certain medications can also cause erectile dysfunction.

(5) Diseases of the penis itself: such as induration of penis, penile curvature, severe phimosis and phimosis.

3. Mixed ED refers to erectile dysfunction caused by both psychological factors and organic causes. In addition, since organic ED is not treated in time, the psychological pressure of patients increases and they are afraid of sexual intercourse failure, making ED treatment more complicated. A study on the etiology classification of a group of 628 ED patients in China showed that psychological factors accounted for 39%, organic factors accounted for 15.8%, and mixed factors accounted for 45.2%.

The combination of meat and vegetables should be reasonable, and some aphrodisiac foods can be eaten at appropriate times.
