How can you get an erection, and when does erectile dysfunction require medical assessment in Europe?

How to get an erection explained: physiology, psychological factors, lifestyle influences, and treatment options.

In this episode, we outline how erections occur from a medical perspective and why erectile dysfunction (ED) can develop at different ages.

You’ll learn:

• The role of blood flow, nitric oxide, and PDE5 enzymes in erections

• How stress, anxiety, and relationship factors affect performance

• The impact of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and smoking

• When lifestyle changes may improve erectile function

• How PDE5 inhibitors such as sildenafil or tadalafil are assessed

• Cardiovascular safety screening before prescribing

• Situations where a prescription request may be declined or require in-person evaluation

We explain how doctors assess medical history, current medications, hormone factors, and cardiovascular risk during an online consultation in the EU. ED can sometimes be an early sign of underlying vascular disease and may require further investigation.

This episode reflects the clinical standards used by Mobi Doctor, where each consultation is reviewed by a registered physician in line with EU medical guidance.
