Erectile Dysfunction Post-Surgery

Erectile dysfunction (ED) after surgery can occur due to various reasons, including nerve damage, reduced blood flow, or hormonal changes. Surgeries, particularly those related to the prostate or pelvic region, may affect the nerves and blood vessels involved in erections. This condition can be temporary or, in some cases, long-lasting. Treatment options for post-surgery ED include medications, vacuum devices, and counseling, helping individuals regain sexual function. Open communication with healthcare providers is essential for addressing concerns and exploring effective solutions following surgery.
