Erectile Dysfunction or ED, formerly known as impotence, has difficulty getting or maintaining an erection long enough to engage in sexual activity. It may affect as many as 30% of Indian men, making it a widespread condition. 

What is Erectile Dysfunction?

Erectile dysfunction is often a sign of underlying health issues and can be caused by several physical or psychological factors, including diabetes, hypertension, and depression. Older men are more susceptible to erectile dysfunction than younger men. Nearly 50% of men 75 years of age and older, 17% in their 60s, and 1% in their 40s are unable to get an erection strong enough for sexual activity.

It is important to note that erectile dysfunction is not limited to older adults, as it can occur in any man, regardless of age. Even though erectile dysfunction is a serious issue, many men are still reluctant to talk about it or seek help because of its stigma. The consequences of untreated erectile dysfunction can be devastating, including depression, reduced self-esteem, and relationship difficulties. 

According to Ayurveda Erectile Dysfunction is called ‘Klaibya’ and is a well-documented disorder with clear Ayurvedic treatments provided. Due to Improper diet and stressful lifestyle vitiates the Vata Dosha and creates Aam. It blocks the Majja Vaha and Shukra Vaha channels which in turn lead to low penile blood circulation. This hinders the functioning of the nervous and reproductive system. This is seen as erectile dysfunction or Low libido.

What is the best treatment for erectile dysfunction?

Erectile dysfunction can occasionally come gradually. One night, getting an erection might take longer or require more stimulation. Over time, erections may become weaker and less frequent until they eventually stop occurring altogether. An erection might not be as strong as usual another time, or it might stop before an orgasm. 

When these issues persist frequently, it's time to get natural ayurvedic treatment for erectile dysfunction because modern ED medicines cause side effects such as headache, flushing, upset stomach, nasal congestion, vision problems, diarrhea, dizziness, and rash. In these cases, natural ayurvedic treatments can provide relief, as they are often derived from plants and herbs that are not only known to be safe but also provide evident effectiveness.
