What can elderly people do with erectile dysfunction? With the increasing age, the incidence rate of impotence is also rising. The elderly are more likely to induce impotence and affect their health. What is the cause of organic erectile dysfunction in the elderly?

With the growth of age, the incidence rate of impotence in the elderly is higher. According to the relevant data report dao, the incidence rate of the elderly over 70 years old is about 30%.

In addition to a significant decrease in the frequency of sexual activity, the quality of sexual life (sexual interest) of the elderly has also significantly decreased.

Neuropathology also found that the blood vessels supplying autonomic nerves in diabetes patients had pathological changes, which affected the nutrition supply of nerves. Therefore, the neurological reflex function decreases, leading to impotence Cardio cerebral Vascular disease: In recent years, the incidence rate of cardio cerebral Vascular disease has increased significantly, and the risk factors leading to cardio cerebral Vascular disease mainly include hyperlipidemia, diabetes and hypertension.
