Abstract

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common form of sexual dysfunction that significantly impacts both the physical and mental well-being of the affected man and his partner. This, in turn, can lead to social maladjustment. The pathogenesis of erectile dysfunction is multifactorial, encompassing arterial, neurogenic, hormonal, cavernous, iatrogenic, and psychogenic causes.

In light of the coronavirus pandemic, complications related to COVID-19 are being increasingly observed. These complications not only involve the respiratory system but also include urogenital manifestations and issues, particularly the potential impact of coronavirus infection on male fertility.
