Persistent erectile dysfunction may be an early warning sign of cardiovascular disease: an analysis of 23 studies found that it may precede diagnosis by about three to five years. Its prevalence rises from around 40% among men in their 40s to 70% among men in their 70s. Factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, obesity, and physical inactivity are linked to poor circulation, while psychological factors and some medications may also contribute. Medical assessment includes checking blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar, and reviewing lifestyle and medications. Treatment may include medicines that increase blood flow, along with managing chronic conditions, losing weight, exercising, quitting smoking, and treating sleep apnea. A review of 16 trials involving around 1,500 men also found that improvements in diet and physical activity were associated with better erectile function.
