Is ED reversible or permanent?

Whether ED is reversible depends on the cause. For many men, ED is temporary and improves with lifestyle changes, therapy, or medication. Psychological ED, in particular, often responds well to counseling and stress reduction. When ED is due to underlying health issues like diabetes or cardiovascular disease, managing those conditions can significantly improve symptoms. In some cases, such as severe nerve damage or after prostate surgery, ED may be permanent, but treatments like implants or injections can still offer solutions.
