Y<\/span>our body must be adequately hydrated to function at optimal levels. Dehydration impedes blood flow, which in turn leads almost inevitably to erection difficulties and maybe even full-blown erectile dysfunction.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You know that drinking plenty of water can keep your skin looking good, rinse away plaque on your teeth, and even fend off hunger. But did you know it might also help to ward off erectile dysfunction?<\/p>\n

Common Causes of ED<\/h3>\n

Erectile dysfunction can be caused by a wide variety of physiological and psychological issues, including diabetes, stress, prostate cancer surgery, depression, cardiovascular disease, and anxiety.<\/p>\n

But one often-overlooked condition is dehydration. In order to be able to achieve and sustain an erection suitable for intercourse, the body needs to have its fluid levels topped off.<\/p>\n

Good hydration allows for more efficient blood flow, which is critical for an erection. In addition, dehydration can cause the body to start producing something called \u201cangiotensin.\u201d It\u2019s a hormone that causes constriction of your blood vessels, which can lead to increased blood pressure and decreased blood flow to the penis. And finally, reduced blood flow can reduce sensation in the penis, making it more difficult to get aroused.<\/p>\n

Signs You May Be Dehydrated<\/h3>\n

Don\u2019t assume that thirst is your first indicator of dehydration. By the time you\u2019re thirsty, you\u2019re already dehydrated.\u00a0There are other symptoms of dehydration to watch for, including fatigue, dizziness, feeling disoriented or confused, dry mouth or tongue, dark urine, reduced need to urinate, and a reduced volume of urine.<\/p>\n

However, if you suspected that your erectile dysfunction was caused by dehydration but then took extra care to drink plenty of fluids with no change, it may be time to see your doctor.<\/p>\n

Erectile dysfunction can be a sign that something more serious is wrong.\u00a0Plus, your doctor can give you a prescription for an ED drug such as Viagra, Cialis, or one of their generic equivalents. These medications have been found to work for most men with erectile dysfunction that’s caused by insufficient blood flow to the penis.<\/p>\n
