Is it true that erectile dysfunction can be caused by both physical and mental factors, such as trauma?
Yes. Erectile dysfunction is well-documented to stem from a combination of physical conditions, neurological issues, and psychological or traumatic factors.
Verdict: SUPPORTED · 4 sources for, 0 against · Last checked
The analysis
The retrieved literature consistently supports the claim that erectile dysfunction is a multifactorial condition driven by both physical (neurological, vascular, metabolic) and mental (psychological, trauma-related) factors. Papers 0, 1, 2, and 3 explicitly discuss both organic and psychogenic causes or the interplay between them. No papers refute the core claim.
