Ed Diagnosis

Don't know if this is the right place for this but I was wondering if anyone on the Forum has had an accurate diagnosis for erectile dysfunction?
I have had to use Viagra for a few years and without it it's more miss than hit!
Recently had two Viagra failures and really freaked.
Generic Viagra so I don't know if that could be a problem.

Anyway I've never been accurately diagnosed for ED other than it's an aging thing and was wondering if this is the Status Quo?

Hey Joe,

The status quo in modern sick care is to treat symptoms, not to cure anything or get to the root cause because that requires people modifying their gluttonous lives and big pharma missing out on profits. Its a symbiotic relationship between lazy people and big pharma.

If you are a smoker I would stop that immediately. There is a direct link there. ED is a symptom of something. Psychological issues. Relationship issues. Endothelial damage. etc. From your question I am inferring that you are trying to trace the ED diagnosis back a little further to its cause. Could you answer the following questions?



Protocol? Labs? Health conditions? Fitness program? Age? BF percentage?
 
Thanks for the reply.
Age: 60 today.
Non-Smoker since 1981.
No meds outside of TRT.
Alcohol on weekends moderately.
Work out regular and active most of the time. Dont run due to previous low back surgery.
Weight 220 @ 6'0 tall some overweight. Dont know BF percentage right off as I've never really cked.
You are correct in that I would definitively know what has changed my erectile quality if possible outside of age.
I'll post my last labs from Defy as soon as I can dig them up but they were good numbers.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
