Like the stock market and foreign car engines, erections are mysterious things that seem to have a mind of their own. When they don't happen, it can be disappointing, at the very least. Decreased blood flow, typically because vessels that supply blood to the penis have narrowed, is often the cause of erectile dysfunction (ED) in older men. Emotional issues are more commonly at the root of it for younger men. It happens to most men from time to time. But if it happens to you more than half the time you have sex, talk to your doctor. Is the Problem All in My Head? Probably not. Most cases of ED are caused by physical problems alone or in combination with emotional ones. Just about any medical condition that affects your nerves or blood vessels could hurt your ability to have erections. High blood pressure, heart disease, multiple sclerosis, kidney disease, and diabetes can all lead to ED. In fact, over 50% of men with diabetes find themselves in that situation. Hormonal issues such as low testosterone levels can also factor in, more often for older men. Prostate cancer treatments including surgery and radiation may be the culprit. If you have erections in the morning or while sleeping, the problem probably isn't physical. Stress, anxiety, and depression can cause ED, too. Talk to your doctor about your symptoms. They may want to run some tests to help figure out what's going on. Can I Blame My Medicines? Maybe. Several types of medications, like blood pressure drugs (especially beta-blockers) and certain antidepressants, can make it tough to get an erection. If you think your medicine may be causing your problem, don't just stop taking it. Talk to your doctor. You may need to switch to something different, or consider taking an ED medication, too. Could My Lifestyle Play a Role? Absolutely. Being overweight, getting too little exercise, and smoking all can work against the good blood flow that is key to erections.

Trouble getting an erection (erectile dysfunction or ED)

Pain in the hips, back (spine), chest (ribs), or other areas from cancer that has spread to bones Weakness or numbness in the legs or feet, or even loss of bladder or bowel control from cancer pressing on the spinal cord Most of these problems are more likely to be caused by something other than prostate cancer.
