Erectile Dysfunction? Impotence???

Quit smoking NOW..at 31 there may some damage to ur arteries (there can be some degree of healing, but no total restoration), but probably more to ur lungs. Good diet (yes, u CAN eat red meat), moderate alcohol consumption etc. can help. There r a lot of other things that can give u ED - one thing u might have ur Dr. check is ur testosterone levels - they could be low for some reason. Viagra is great - just discovered it & learned how to use it a few weeks ago & I am in my 50 is & I am insatiable right now (Cialis is even better w/ fewer side effects). I could lay pipe twice or more a night if the Mrs. could stand it right now. I also started taking 75 mg of DHEA & I think that boosted my hormone levels.
In any case u r a young man, u can do some degree of healing & if ur hormone levels r OK u should not need Viagra for another 30 years.. Good Luck.

Yes your body will recover just give it time.

you cannot reverse the damage. the damage is done. they way you explained sounds like you do have ED. smoking is really bad and can cause ED and other bad things. my father has ED and he smoked a lot. there is no cure for ED. only if you use viagra and other pills that work the same way.

Actually yes. Qutting smoking will cure up all sorts of problems, & the results can be felt within 2-3 weeks, & things just keep getting better. You will have the same circulatory system, & respiratory system as one who never smoked by only 7 years, so ur sex life should continue to improve,, as well as ur physicial stamina. And ur breath wo not smell like the bottom of a bird cage, nor will the clothes u wear, nor will ur sweat, nor ur hair. Congrats... Check out Webmd.com for benefits of smoking cessation.

Quitting Tobacco Use

Why Quit?


More than 430,000 people die each year from tobacco-related diseases. Tobacco use, especially smoking, is the number-one preventable cause of death & disease in the United States.3

Everyone who uses tobacco would benefit from quitting. The earlier u quit using tobacco, the greater ur chance of reversing the risk of tobacco-related diseases.

When u quit smoking—no matter how old u are—you will decrease ur risk of:

Heart attack & stroke. Smoking even a few cigarettes a day (1 to 4) increases ur risk of coronary artery disease. If a person who smokes has a heart attack, his or her risk of sudden death is twice as great as the risk of a person who does not smoke.
As soon as u quit smoking, ur risk of heart attack & stroke begins to decrease. If u already have coronary artery disease, ur risk of a second heart attack & possible sudden death decreases when u quit smoking. Use this tool to find out ur risk of having a heart attack: Interactive Tool: How Does Smoking Increase Your Risk of Heart Attack?
Lung cancer & other lung diseases. After 10 years of not smoking, ur risk of lung cancer is reduced by 30% to 50%. If u have asthma, u may have fewer & less severe asthma attacks. You will also have fewer respiratory illnesses, such as colds, flu, & pneumonia.
Other cancers. After u quit, ur risk for developing cancers of the voice box (larynx), mouth, throat, esophagus, intestines, bladder, kidney, & pancreas gradually declines.
Impotence & fertility problems. Men who quit smoking r less likely to develop problems achieving & maintaining an erection. Women who quit smoking r less likely to have problems becoming pregnant.
Gum disease & other dental problems. Smoking can lead to gum (periodontal) disease. People who smoke r twice as likely to lose teeth as people who do not smoke.
Early death. No matter how old u r or how long you've been smoking, quitting reduces ur risk for developing life-threatening health problems. Use this tool to find out how much smoking decreases ur life span: Interactive Tool: How Does Smoking Affect Your Life Span?

Yes the body repairs itself. Just keep the blood pumping. make sure u do not have any heart disease. No clogs.

You can, but you may also need to look at your diet (red meat can also be a culprit) and engage an exercise program
