There’s a growing trend of healthy men from their teens to thirties using medications like Viagra and Cialis, drugs intended for older men and men with health-related erectile dysfunction.
But many of the young men using the drugs have a condition that is psychological rather than physiological. These young men are turning to pills to try and overcome a condition called “porn-induced erectile dysfunction.”
The massive increase in consumption of online porn by young men is causing the condition that means they can’t engage in ordinary sexual relations. For these men, porn has led to erectile dysfunction and that’s led to misuse of drugs like Viagra and Cialis. And most young guys aren’t talking about it openly just yet. They’re talking about it online, anonymously, looking for answers about why their bodies are failing them. Some are even suicidal.
