Can Arterial Insufficiency Cause Erectile Dysfunction?

Question:

Does having Arterial insufficiency result in developing ED?

Answer:

Yes.

Researchers believe that ED preceding heart problems is more often due to the dysfunction of the inner lining of the blood vessels (endothelium) and smooth muscle. Endothelial dysfunction causes the inadequate blood supply to the heart and impaired blood flow to the penis, and aids in the development of atherosclerosis (which in this case is called peripheral artery disease – PAD).
