Abstract

Background: With the increasing trend ofpopulation aging, erectile dysfunction (ED) among elderly men has emerged as apressing health concern. Despite extensive research on the relationship betweenED and aging, ongoing discoveries and evidence continue to arise.

Objective: Through this comprehensiveanalysis, we aim to provide a more nuanced theoretical framework for thedevelopment of preventive and therapeutic strategies for senile ED, ultimatelyenhancing the quality of life for elderly men.

Methods: This review delves deeper into thecore mechanisms underlying ED in the context of aging and offers acomprehensive overview of published meta-analyses and systematic reviewspertinent to these conditions.

Results and conclusion: Our findings revealthat local structural damage to the penis, vascular dysfunction, neuronalinjury, hormonal alterations, other physiological changes, and psychologicalbarriers all play pivotal roles in the pathogenesis of aging-related ED.Furthermore, more than 20 diseases closely associated with aging have beenimplicated in the occurrence of ED, further compounding the complexity of thisissue.

期刊介绍： Andrology is the study of the male reproductive system and other male gender related health issues. Andrology deals with basic and clinical aspects of the male reproductive system (gonads, endocrine and accessory organs) in all species, including the diagnosis and treatment of medical problems associated with sexual development, infertility, sexual dysfunction, sex hormone action and other urological problems. In medicine, Andrology as a specialty is a recent development, as it had previously been considered a subspecialty of urology or endocrinology
