Not at all! If you have unhealthy lifestyle habits like smoking or chronic health conditions like diabetes or high cholesterol, addressing these can often improve erection strength without your having to take medication. That’s because smoking and chronic health conditions like diabetes are associated with narrowed, clogged arteries, and restricted blood vessels are a major contributing factor to erectile dysfunction. Better circulation equals better erections, and whatever you can do to improve your circulation will help.
The healthier your everyday lifestyle, the less likely you are to have erection problems. Of course, these remedies aren’t as convenient as taking a pill, but they have countless other benefits as well, such as helping you shed excess weight and increasing your stamina, both of which can boost confidence in the bedroom. And even if you take prescription medications for erection problems, taking the additional steps of improving your lifestyle can help them work better than they would on their own.
