Is Connection between COVID-19 and Erectile Dysfunction?


Researchers continuously learning more about COVID-19’s long-term impact on the body. Currently, they are finding out the link between Corona Virus and erectile dysfunction (ED). That is the reason a man had a tough time keeping and maintain a hard erection during intercourse.

Causing behind it:

Cardiovascular system problem: Erectile Dysfunction is one of the early signs of heart disease. The research concludes that Covid-19 can affect heart health because it can lead to inflammation in several parts of your body. This contains the heart, the blood vessels and veins nearby.

Covid-19 has also been associated with endothelial dysfunction i.e. type of non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). That is when the inner wall of blood vessels firm instead of contracting and expanding to pass sufficient blood flow. This is the result of how blood is carried within your body along with tissue in the penis. The interrupted blood supply in the penis can lead to difficulty getting or sustain a hard erection. 

Mental health issues:  Covid-19 is related to anxiety, depression, and stress can badly impact sexual health as a result men experience erectile dysfunction (ED).

Poor overall health: Experts conclude that ED is generally a symptom of some medical conditions. If your wellbeing is not great to be with you then you can experience unwanted symptoms from Covid-19.

Old age like after the ’50s can increase the risk of ED as well as Covid-19 infection.

What’s the reason Behind It?

When people who are infected with Virus more than 5 times are more chances to produce Erectile Dysfunction (ED) in men as per one study concluded. In one experimental study, some penis tissue samples took by researchers from two men who had experienced Covid-19 infection as a result one man found severe symptoms and the other man had mild. Both men had surgery for severe ED symptoms before taken samples. It is too early to conclude that the long-term effects of the Virus are effects on sexual and reproductive health in men.

What can you do?

The side effect of Covid-19 leads to ED can be short-term or long-term. But according to experts, they are not sure if this complication may lead to issues with fertility.

If you seem you have ED then consult with your doctor right now, especially you recovered from Covid-19 infection. They (Doctor) examine you and ask about your medical history and accordingly plan for a physical exam. Sometimes they told you for lab tests or suggest a urologist (A specialized doctor in treating male reproductive problems). A urologist discovers problems that cause your ED and finally starts the best treatment plan.

Experts recommend you to get Covid-19 vaccination as soon as possible to lower the risk of Erectile Dysfunction as a side effect.
