If you are unable to get and sustain erection, you have a 70 percent increased risk for premature death, a new study from The University of Mississippi finds.<\/p>\n

\u2022 If you have erectile dysfunction, the probability is that you have poor cardiovascular health, says Dr. Tobias K\u00f6hler, an associate professor of urology at the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine.<\/p>\n

\u2022 So, if you\u2019re unable to get hard, it\u2019s often an early sign that your heart is in trouble.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Many men whose erectile dysfunction is caused by poor cardiovascular health end up having life-threatening heart problems such as a heart attack within the next five years, says Dr. K\u00f6hler.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The vessels that carry blood to your penis are tiny, only one to two millimetres across, so they get clogged easily, says Dr. K\u00f6hler.<\/p>\n

\u2022 If plaque starts to build up in your vessels because of poor diet, a lack of exercise, smoking, age, or genetics, the bloodflow to your penis is the first thing that will get blocked off, Dr. K\u00f6hler says. That can make it impossible to get an erection.<\/p>\n

\u2022 If the plaque continues to build, it will start affecting larger arteries, such as the ones that carry blood to and from your heart. This can cause a heart attack or sudden death, K\u00f6hler says.<\/p>

\u2022 If you are suffering from erectile dysfunction, it is very necessary to see a doctor\u2014instead of using Viagra or any such medication.<\/p>\n

\u2022 If you heed the early warning sign, you may be able to fix your cardiovascular problems before they become fatal.<\/p>\n

\u2022 If you\u2019ve been consistently unable to get or sustain erection for three months, make an appointment with your doctor, says Dr. K\u00f6hler.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Tell your doctor about your erection problems \u2014 and make it the first thing you bring up, so your doctor has time to thoroughly check you out, he says.<\/p>\n

\u2022 If blocked arteries are the problems, an improved diet and exercise regimen may reverse the damage and get your penis back in working order, he says.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Your physician may also give you an erectile drug like Viagra to help your sex life in the meantime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
