GCN put out a couple videos on the subject of erectile dysfunction, and according to them the research suggesting a link between the two is fairly rubbish [1]. In fact, the prevalence of erectile dysfunction and other men’s health issues is much lower than in the general population for the same age group. Reason being that erectile dysfunction is more commonly associated with heart disease, and cycling helps to reduce the risk of heart disease.
It’s just one study. And GCN is not the best source for science news, and is certainly going to be biased in favor of cycling. But I think at the very least the risk of erectile dysfunction from cycling is vastly overstated in general.
