Male Impotence Causes

1) Arteriosclerosis is a process defined by the hardening of a person's arteries which can often lead to erectile dysfunction. There are many attributing factors to the developing of this condition such as diet, diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol and lifestyle choices like smoking, which over a number of years can cause this hardening to take place. Vascular disease is often associated with age and can account for as many as 65% of all erectile dysfunction cases in men over the age of 60.

2) At present there are well over 200 prescription treatments which are known to cause or at least contribute to the development of erectile dysfunction. These commonly prescribed medications can include treatments for depression, hypertension, cardiovascular conditions as well as sedatives and tranquilizers. In addition to these treatments there are a number of other substances, such as prohibited recreational drugs which are also known to be responsible for the development of this condition.

3) Diabetes is a condition which is caused by high levels of sugar within the blood, which over a number of years can cause substantial damage to both the nerves and blood vessels found throughout the body. This condition is one of if not the single highest physical cause of erectile dysfunction cases with as many as 60% of men with erectile dysfunction as a direct result of Diabetes.

4) This condition is extremely rare and is more frequent in men who are advancing in age. It is an inflammatory condition, which causes considerable scarring of the tissue found within the penis which causes abnormal curvature of a man's penis. This condition can often interfere with the sexual function of its sufferers as well as causing erections to be considerably painful.
