ED treatments such as sildenafil have also been found effective in treating psychogenic ED (i.e. mental health-related ED). On top of this, they can significantly improve self-esteem, confidence, sexual relationship satisfaction, which can all have a physical impact on your ability to get an erection.
A healthy diet also helps to maintain a healthy body weight, which is important because men who have a 42-inch waist are 50 percent more likely to have ED than men with a 32-inch waist. Also, obesity increases the risk for vascular disease and diabetes, two factors that contribute to ED.
