Erectile Dysfunction May Signal Heart Problems

Published on February 5, 2005 By gorgeousgeorge In Welcome

Erectile dysfunction is sometimes more than just an issue that negatively impacts a man's quality of life -- it can also be an early sign of heart or blood vessel problems, according to experts. Consequently, men need to tell their doctors as soon as they develop erectile dysfunction (ED), so their doctors can order additional tests to make sure their heart and blood vessels are healthy, lead author Dr. Kevin Billups of the University of Minnesota School of Medicine in Minneapolis told Reuters Health.

The first signs of a failure to achieve an erection should be taken seriously. There is no doubt that there are drugs like Viagra which can improve your sexual performance, but you should seek a doctor's opinion. It is a known fact that Viagra works for most men whether their ED is mild or severe. But it is necessary to undergo a thorough physical examination. Erectile Dysfunction could be due to various underlying causes like heart disease, diabetes or hypertension. So when you have difficulty keeping a firm erection, that's when you really need to go for a check up.
