psychological erectile dysfunction

Psychological erectile dysfunction occurs when emotional or mental factors—such as stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship issues—impact a man's ability to achieve or maintain an erection. Unlike physical causes, it doesn't result from a problem with the body or hormones but from psychological factors that interfere with the brain's signals to increase blood flow to the penis. This form of ED can be temporary or recurring and may often be influenced by performance anxiety or low self-esteem. Addressing underlying emotional issues through counseling, stress management, or open communication can often improve or resolve the condition.
