Men’s sexual health is a complex topic, often shrouded in secrecy and misunderstanding. Two common concerns, erectile dysfunction (ED) and performance anxiety, can be confusingly similar. However, they have distinct causes and require different approaches..
Understanding the Difference
- Erectile Dysfunction (ED): This is the physical inability to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse. It can be caused by various factors like underlying medical conditions (heart disease, diabetes), hormonal imbalances, nerve damage, or even certain medications.
- Performance Anxiety: This is a mental state characterized by worry, fear, or self-doubt about sexual performance. Performance anxiety can manifest in difficulty getting or maintaining an erection, premature ejaculation, or reduced libido. Unlike ED, it’s not a physical issue, but rather a mental block.
