What Baby Boomers Need To Know About Erectile Dysfunction
Could Erections be Barometers into more Serious Problems?
Through continued research into erectile dysfunction, the medical profession is realizing more and more every day that ED can be a barometer of sorts into other more serious problems. Urologist, Barry Buffman M.D., specializes in sexual dysfunction. He warns baby boomers to pay close attention to the early signs of erectile dysfunction.
Buffman adds that more often than not is ED a standalone problem. It can be an early warning sign that men should take seriously. Doctors these men visit should also take this problem a little more seriously too as the research does show that other health issues could be lying in wait. It should not be a simple diagnosis anymore. “Doctor, I have some erection issues.” The common reply is, “Well let’s prescribe you some Viagra then.” This should not happen anymore.
The Massachusetts Male Aging Study reports that more than 30 million American men between the ages of 40 and 70 have reported having trouble with erections at one time or another. More doctors need to get into the deeper issues that may be causing the erectile dysfunction.

In these studies, a high percentage of men with ED have also been diagnosed later with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high cholesterol, and other physical ailments. These areas now need to be checked, can you imagine how many potential lives could be saved, or the millions in medical costs that could be saved by using the penis barometer?
Complete health check up if suffering from ED
It’s time to look beyond the short-term problem, it’s time to stop treating the symptoms, and it’s time to ask your doctor for a more intensive examination if you are suffering from erection problems. Have the entire health of you body analyzed. Not only could you stop a heart attack, or another potentially life threatening problem, but you’ll be fixing the cause of the ED as well.
Dr. Buffman say’s there is good news for aging men. You can regain sexual health, and when you do, your overall health will have improved as well. “Maintaining sexual health goes beyond managing other health problems, it supports overall health well into old age.”
Eat well, exercise regularly, drink lots of water, and the erection problems shouldn’t be an issue. Should they become one, ask your health care provider to help you discover if there is any under lying problems that should be addressed. It could be as simple as stress, but it could be more.
