Depression and Erectile Dysfunction

Depression is now a recognised medical condition and one of the problems with it is that you may not be aware you’re suffering from Depression. I provide a checklist for Depression because this issue is a common source of ED. But, it is only as a very general checklist due to the complexity of the problem. Have a look at the these symptoms and see if you can relate to any of them over a period of at least several weeks:

– You wonder whether life is worth living;

– You have lost interest in things you were previously interested in;

– You lack enthusiasm for anything;

– You have to push yourself to do tasks or your daily routine;

– You can’t concentrate and find most things meaningless;

– You suffer physically from lack of sleep, get tired easily, have lost weight, have no energy;

– You suffer mentally and feel irritable, tense, anxious and feel gloomy.

These factors don’t all have to be present but a combination of them requires professional attention in order to address the Depression issue. At the end of the day if you’re truly, clinically depressed, then ED is a common consequence.

A recent Japanese study established a link between Depression and ED and poses an interesting question as to whether Depression itself can be treated by treating ED. It makes sense that overcoming ED will boost one’s confidence. (Source: LUTS: Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, doi: 10.1111/j.l 757-5672.2011.00140.x).

Depression has been linked to serotonin levels produced by the body. We have briefly discussed how one’s reaction to a sex encounter through the autonomous nervous system can take the Parasympathetic or Sympathetic nervous paths. If you are suffering from any kind of serotonin imbalance, then the undesirable Parasympathetic path is more likely.

The good news is that if Depression is the source of your ED condition, then with effective treatment of Depression your ED will also be treated. Likewise, drugs can easily treat any serotonin imbalance. Please refer to your Doctor for a referral to a psychiatrist, or psychologist. A psychiatrist specialises in psychological aspects of medicine and a psychologist is not medically qualified but may be so as a clinical psychologist. Experience in sexual disorders is a plus. It is also common these days for Doctors to treat Depression themselves.
