A healthcare provider can help diagnose underlying causes and recommend treatments such as medications, lifestyle changes, or therapy. Lifestyle changes: Focus on a healthy diet, regular exercise, reducing alcoholsmoking, and getting enough sleep. Stress management: Practice relaxation techniques like meditation or deep breathing, and consider therapy if anxiety or depression is involved. Pelvic exercises: Try Kegel exercises to strengthen pelvic floor muscles and improve erections. Open communication with your partner: Discussing concerns with your partner can reduce anxiety and improve intimacy. If symptoms persist, seek professional help to find the right treatment. Erectile dysfunction is common and treatable with the right approach.
