Before answering, let's understand what are beta-blockers and their use:

Beta-blockers are a class of medicines that doctors prescribe to treat a wide range of health issues involving your heart and your circulatory system. Additionally, they also are sometimes employed to address conditions related to your brain and nervous system. They work in the following ways:

Reduce stress on the heart

Slowing the heart rate

Lowering blood pressure

Slowing nerve impulses through the heart. This reduces the need for blood and oxygen.

Basically, Beta-blockers try to reduce the burden of the heart.

They give your heart rest.

The common side effects of all beta-blockers are the following:

Slow heart rate

Low blood pressure

Irregular heart rhythms

Fatigue

Dizziness

Nausea

Insomnia, sleep changes

Dry mouth/eyes.

But do beta-blockers cause ED, let see:

As per the information on Cleveland Clinic, Beta-blockers have a link to cause ED. However, the aetiology/cause is not well established. There is one more take: After beginning a beta-blocker, patient awareness or fear of erectile dysfunction as a possible side effect may also contribute to dissatisfaction with erectile function.

Pro tip: If dealing with ED or PE issues, do not self-prescribe. Always consult your doctor and purchase your medicine from a reliable source.

What is cause of ED and how do you cure it?

The cause of ED (or erectile dysfunction) is usually cardiovascular. In conditions such as diabetes, significant (morbid) obesity, and coronary artery disease, as well as peripheral arterial disease, there is simply not adequate blood flow to the penis. There is no known cure. However, drugs for ED, as well as prosthetic devices, have been helpful to many.
