Does low testosterone cause
• Testosterone is a hormone that is produced in the testicles.

What is
testosterone?
• ED is the inability to get or maintain an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse.
• It is a common problem, affecting an estimated 30-40% of men at some point in their
lives.
• There are many possible causes of ED, including:
⚬ Low testosterone
⚬ Age
⚬ Smoking
⚬ High blood pressure
⚬ High cholesterol
⚬ Diabetes
⚬ Obesity
⚬ Heart disease
⚬ Stroke
⚬ Nerve damage
⚬ Medications
⚬ Psychological factors
What is ED?
• The exact mechanism by which low testosterone causes ED is not fully
understood.
• However, there are a few theories:
• Low testosterone reduces nitric oxide production. Nitric oxide is a gas that
helps to relax the blood vessels in the penis, allowing them to fill with blood
and cause an erection.
• Low testosterone affects the brain's ability to control erections.
Testosterone is thought to play a role in the release of dopamine, a
neurotransmitter that is involved in sexual desire.
• Low testosterone can also lead to other health problems, such as obesity,
heart disease, and diabetes, which can also contribute to ED.
How does low testosterone cause ED?
• The diagnosis of ED is made by a doctor based on a physical exam and a
discussion of the patient's medical history and symptoms.
• There are a number of treatments available for ED, including:
• Medications, such as sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), and vardenafil
(Levitra)
• Vacuum pumps
• Penile implants
• Testosterone replacement therapy
Diagnosis and treatment of ED
• Low testosterone can be a cause of ED, but it is not the only cause.
• If you are experiencing ED, it is important to see a doctor to determine the cause
and get the appropriate treatment.
