I'm a 23-year-old student and lately, I've noticed that I'm struggling with erectile dysfunction. It's been a concern for me since last year. I don't know if it's related, but I do drink beer about three times a week. Could this be affecting me? I'm really looking for some advice on what steps I should take next.

It's important to address erectile dysfunction with a holistic approach. Regular beer consumption can sometimes affect performance, so consider reducing it. I recommend speaking with a healthcare professional to explore potential causes like stress, hormonal imbalances, or lifestyle factors, and get personalized advice for effective treatment.
