HOME - Info - Psychological Erectile Dysfunction
This section of the ED Rx USA website includes information about psychological erectile dysfunction. ED is normally caused by a physical condition but psychology can play a fairly large role as well. Psychology and physiology can work hand in hand at creating erectile dysfunction.
Psychological factors are responsible for 10%-20% of all cases of ED. It is often a secondary reaction to an underlying physical cause. In some cases, the psychological effects of ED may stem from childhood abuse or sexual trauma.
Stress Stress can be job-related, money-related or the result of relationship problems, among other factors. Anxiety Once a man experiences ED, he may become overly worried that the problem will happen again. This can lead to "performance anxiety" or a fear of sexual failure and consistently cause ED. Guilt A man may feel guilty that he is not satisfying his partner. Depression A common cause of ED, depression affects a person physically and psychologically. Depression can cause ED even when a man is completely comfortable in sexual situations. Drugs used to treat depression may also cause ED. Low self-esteem This can be due to prior episodes of ED or can be the result of other issues unrelated to sexual performance. Indifference This may come as a result of age and a subsequent loss of interest in sex, be the result of medications or stem from problems in a couple’s relationship. All men at one time or another will experience ED. Only if the problem becomes persistent (occurs more than 50% of the time) should you be concerned and consider seeking medical advice and treatment. For men whose erectile dysfunction is caused by psychological problems, therapy may be needed.
