How does stress influence male sexual dysfunction?

erectile-dysfunction can be caused by physical factors (such as impaired blood flow to the penis) or psychological factors. Psychological erectile dysfunction can often be caused by personal, professional, or emotional stressors, as well as the pressure to perform sexually (or even obtain an erection in the first place). Fortunately, stress management techniques, when added to traditional erectile dysfunction treatment, can improve symptoms of stress and erectile dysfunction.^[1]
