Q: How to diagnose Erectile Dysfunction?
asked by: DoctorQuestion on March 18th, 2007
Following is probably the most interesting question you were asked.

I moved from the U.S. to Amsterdam, Netherlands over one year ago. I am a single and so I go to Red Light district in Amsterdam a lot. I didn't have any erectile disfunction at the beginning, but gradually my erection was getting worse. Now after over a year, my erection is not hard enough to penetrate.

I know it is not physical problem because I got erection during sleep all the time and have good health in general.

My questions are:

Did my frequent visits to Red Light district cause my erection problem?

If yes, how could I treat my erection problem?

Thank you very much for your advice.

You can’t be sure if the erectile dysfunction is organic in nature, functional in nature, or both... until you perform a complete medical examination at a urologist's office. It doesn’t seem likely that frequent use of prostitutes’ services can cause erectile dysfunction.
