一項於2004年針對台灣男性的研究發現，特定疾病族群出現勃起功能障礙的風險較高，男性糖尿病族群中有36.1%，男性高血壓族群有28.3%，男性心血管疾病族群有23.3%，攝護腺肥大族群有22.0%，男性憂鬱症族群有25.8%，患有勃起功能障礙。
因此，若是有相關疾病的男性就需要注意是否出現勃起功能障礙的情況；在許多案例中，在治療勃起功能障礙的過程裡，也能同時改善其他慢性病的情況。
治療勃起功能障礙3種療法
1.磷酸二酯酶第五型(PDE-5)抑制劑：藥物作用使陰莖海綿體平滑肌放鬆，讓血液能夠正常流入，以幫助勃起功能與狀態；但服藥後仍需要適當的刺激才會勃起。經過台灣衛生主管機關核准的口服勃起治療藥物有三種：威而鋼(sidenafil)、犀利士(tadalafil)和樂威壯(vardenafil)。
2.睪固酮補充治療：睪固酮補充劑能夠幫助治療與改善勃起功能障礙，並且提高國際勃起功能指標量表IIEF量表的分數；藥物有Nebido、Sustanon等。
3.陰莖海綿體注射治療：通常是在病患口服藥物後效果不好時才使用。在進行性行為前使用，使陰莖能夠增加血流、保持勃起狀態
會導致勃起功能障礙的原因很多，通常並不是單一病因所致的，若是出現類似的情況，可以先使用國際勃起功能指標量表(IIEF)做簡單的自我診斷，並且不要因為不好意思或是害羞而不去就醫，可能會導致勃起功能持續惡化。
