Just a serious thought here...If the liver processes (or makes) all hormones -thyroid, pancreatic, or male/female and the liver is compromised, it would make sense that it could cause ED, perimenopause, early menopause, or loss of desire if hormones like testosterone were to drop below adequate levels. Frequently, part of the txing fallout is screwed up hormones.
So, Mrs Little, with a little catalog shopping from Adam and Eve to help the hubby's confidence, and a thorough checkup and a chat with his Dr (please don't do Viagra if he takes heart medication -he may come and go at the same time...) perhaps you all can get things going again. Best wishes. ~MM

I think the original question pertained to the disease itself contributing to ED...which it often DOES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

. No argument whatsoever here and there are studies to support this.. however below...
is what you said  .


"In addition, the tx also has a very negative impact on erectile function.

  Interesting.... my hepa who has also treated many hundreds if not thousands of male patients in many clinical studies told me that Ed would not be a problem...so i guess we both have just  our Hepas word on things...so if you would be good enough to list those studies for members to peruse to see what is actually fact ..that would be beneficial.
