What Is The Correlation Between Erectile Dysfunction And Chronic Congestive Epididymitis?

default
Posted on Thu, 18 Jun 2015
Question: Yes, thank you. Several years ago, I had a vasectomy. Now, I've been diagnosed with erectile dysfunction and chronic congestive epididymitis. Can these two things be connected? Where can I find documentation on this? I've been prescribed Viagra, but I can seldom get an erection. With an ultrasound, I also have bilateral head cysts. Thx, I'm trying to understand this...

The Chronic Congestive Epididymitis is a common radiological finding in those who have undergone Vasectomy however Erectile Dysfunction can not be due to Chronic Epididymitis and you can not find out documentation on internet regarding relation between Erectile Dysfunction and Chronic Epididymitis.

It is very common and normal to get Erectile Dysfunction some time or other in every one's life at this age what is called as Secondary Erectile Dysfunction where one can not find any organic cause.But most in most of the cases it gets resolved over a period of time .

Please consult qualified \Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to find out any cause for ED.
