Anything that affects the heart, can affect the erection, such as being overweight or having high blood pressure. Certain neurological conditions can also affect an erection. There are many different treatment options for erectile dysfunction including: oral medications, injections, intra-urethral suppositories, vacuum erection devices and penile implants.
