Many men delay consulting a doctor due to stigma, but early treatment is highly effective.

• Low Testosterone (Hormonal Imbalances) – affect sexual desire and performance
• Obesity & Sedentary Lifestyle – linked to metabolic syndrome and ED
• Side Effects of Medications – antidepressants, blood pressure drugs, etc.
