Smokers may have a high probability of suffering from erectile dysfunction.

Researchers observed that the risk of suffering from erectile dysfunction was 1.5 times higher in smokers than in non-smokers. The results of this study show that smoking may be a contributing factor to the development of erectile dysfunction.
