Solution

The correct option is D being less anxious and depressed

Erectile dysfunction is the inability to achieve or maintain successful erection of penis so that sexual intercourse is not possible. It is also called impotence.

Depression is a psychological disorder that causes the imbalance in the production of hormones that controls the physiology of the body. Anxiety, guilt, history of sexual abuse, marital or relationship problems, stress can also lead to ED in many cases.

High levels of bad cholesterol in the bloodstream creates plaques in blood vessels that block blood flow. These blockages will result in inadequate circulation of blood throughout the body including the penis. As a result, erection dysfunction may occur. Use of statins in people having high cholesterol may be advised.

Regular exercise, weight loss in obese or overweight men, and improved control of diabetes are advised. Weight loss can also modestly improve low testosterone levels.
