While it is possible to cure erectile dysfunction permanently, results would vary from person to person, and, of course, progress would also be dependent on the causes of erection problems.

Can tiredness cause erectile dysfunction? For most of us, a large portion of our day is filled with work, hobbies, and even exercise. With this, you may come home physically exhausted but mentally prepared for sexual activity. In this instance, ED can be permanently cured with more time for rest.[3]
Can vices cause erectile dysfunction? According to research, men who drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes are more likely to have reduced erectile function. Making the change towards a healthier lifestyle can potentially improve symptoms of ED.[4]
