How To Diagnose Erectile Dysfunction

How is erectile dysfunction diagnosed?

Primarily, erectile dysfunction is a diagnosis that's made through patient history. For example, with psychogenic erectile dysfunction, a man has the ability to obtain erections when they wake up in the morning and by themselves. However, they're unable to perform adequately with a partner. Additionally, the diagnosis can be made through blood tests looking at hormone studies, that is, regarding testosterone. In many men, their testosterone levels are low enough to where it's a contributing factor to their erectile dysfunction issue. By correcting the testosterone deficiency, their erectile dysfunction may be eliminated or improved.
