Yes, ED becomes more common with age, but it’s not an inevitable part of aging. Many men in their 40s, 50s, and beyond experience some degree of ED, but healthy lifestyle habits and medical treatment can help maintain sexual function. Aging may slow the body's response to sexual stimulation, but it doesn’t mean sex has to stop. Conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, and lower testosterone levels, which are more common in older men, can increase the risk of ED. Staying active, eating well, reducing stress, and regular check-ups can go a long way in keeping everything working smoothly.
