COVID and erectile dysfunction: Here's another good reason for men to
get vaccinated. As soon as doctors realized that the virus threatened
the endovascular system, we wondered if COVID-19 infection could cause
erectile dysfunction. Marcos Del Rosario Santiago, contributor.
It looks like there is another important reason to get the COVID-19
vaccine it could help prevent erectile dysfunction.
As soon as doctors realized that the virus threatened the endovascular
system, we started wondering if COVID-19 infection could cause ED. And
anecdotally, since the pandemic began in March 2020, urologists like
myself had noticed an uptick in patients who were experiencing erectile
dysfunction.
And let me, as a doctor who helps men who have erectile dysfunction,
affirm that there is no repeat no scientific evidence to support
rapper Nicki Minaj's assertion to her 22.6 million Twitter followers
this week that the COVID vaccines can cause impotency or "swollen
testicles."
The evidence strongly suggests that ED and COVID-19 are strongly
associated. COVID-19 appears to increase the chances of developing
erectile dysfunction, and erectile dysfunction appears to be a marker of
increased susceptibility to infection. A double whammy.
We hope that getting vaccinated against COVID will also prevent episodes
of ED.
