Doctors have been able to reliably predict the onslaught of heart diseases by a bout two to three years for men who have been diagnosed with erectile dysfunction. This comes to light as doctors find other medical people to have been ignoring warnings of such a relationship that no preemptive steps are being taken to monitor or check for heart problems thus increasing the risk of death from heart problems. Doctors emphasize that though dysfunction is a sexual problem, heart disease is far more of a killer due to the complications that arise.
Doctors who were part of the study who have seen patients with recent heart attacks found that these very same people have been diagnosed as having erectile dysfunction two to three years prior with their doctors not paying attention to earlier warnings of the relationship between possible heart problem development.
