2. How is erectile dysfunction diagnosed?
A healthcare provider can diagnose ED and determine its cause. They’ll review your medical history and perform a physical exam. They’ll also ask you questions about your personal and sexual history. These questions may make you feel embarrassed or awkward. But it’s important to be honest with the provider in order to quickly determine the cause.

It depends on what your healthcare provider suspects is causing erectile dysfunction. Your provider may order: Blood tests, Complete blood count (CBC), Lipid panel, Liver function tests, Kidney function tests, Thyroid tests, Testosterone test, Urinalysis (urine test)…
Before testing, your provider will explain what’s involved with a test and answer any questions you have. If you don’t feel comfortable, you can decide not to do the test at any time.
