Although it is commonly associated with older age, erectile dysfunction in young men is an increasingly frequent reality. At Andrología Barcelona, we know that this problem can deeply affect self-esteem, confidence, and the overall quality of life of those who suffer from it, especially at a young age.
Studies show that up to 9 out of 10 men under the age of 40 experience erection difficulties at some point due to psychological causes. While often it is just a one-off episode, in some cases it can become chronic and require the help of a specialist in erectile dysfunction in Barcelona.
Erectile dysfunction in young men in Barcelona: causes, diagnosis and treatment
Why does erectile dysfunction occur in young men?
Male impotence in young men can have a psychological, organic, or mixed origin. We can distinguish two main causes of erectile dysfunction:
Psychogenic causes
Psychological erectile dysfunction often appears after an occasional failure. That first episode creates anxiety for the next sexual encounter, which may trigger repeated failures and lead to what is called performance anxiety.
In these cases, an erection may not be achieved or may be lost during intercourse. Without appropriate intervention, insecurity can reinforce this vicious cycle and make the problem worse.
Organic causes
Although less common in younger men, they should still be taken into account:
- Diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
- Hormonal disorders.
- Smoking, alcohol and drug use.
- Obesity and sedentary lifestyle.
At Andrología Barcelona we carry out a comprehensive assessment to identify the exact cause and recommend the most appropriate treatment.
