Erectile dysfunction (ED) is often treated like a personal failure—when it’s usually a whole-body message. Blood flow, nerve health, hormones, medication side effects, stress physiology, sleep quality, and relationship pressure can all impact erections. This class offers a grounded, shame-free roadmap for understanding erectile changes and choosing support strategies that match your needs and values.
 
We’ll cover:
Hormonal contributors (testosterone shifts, thyroid concerns, prolactin, cortisol/stress, and age-related changes)
Lifestyle factors that strongly influence erections (cardiovascular health, diabetes, sleep apnea, alcohol, nicotine, movement, stress load)
Non-hormonal medications (PDE5 inhibitors, other prescription options, and common med interactions)
Hormonal medications (when testosterone therapy is considered, pros/cons, labs to ask about, and safety notes)
Other therapies (pelvic floor support, vacuum devices, injections/suppositories, implants, counseling/sex therapy, and nervous-system regulation tools)
Communication skills to reduce pressure, renegotiate intimacy, and ask for support from lovers and friends without oversharing
