Can Kidney Stones Lead To Weakened Erections?

Can Kidney stones lead to weak erections? I m a healthy enough 20 year old male who s had no problems with the little guy saluting me before, but I ve noticed recently it s becoming a nuisance. I didn t think anything of it at the time, but the doctor asked if I d noticed anything going on or weakening of my erections, but now it s got me thinking twice. I ve got a stone in each kidney they say, and they basically told me good luck and to wait it out hoping for the best. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Welcome to HCM.
Kidney stone is not the cause for the weak erection,
It might be due to stress of your condition.
Sometime there is discomfort feeling and can lead to weak erection due to continuous irritation and mild pain through out the tract.
Otherwise drink more water and other liquids.
Think positive,avoid stress and keep in touch with your doctor.
