Erectile dysfunction has been defined as persistent inability to attain and maintain an erection, sufficient to permit satisfactory sexual performance. In Ayurvedic classics, sexual dysfunction are described under the domain of klaibya. Acharya Charak and Acharya Sushrut first described the condition called dhwajbhangaj klaibya, which closely resembles with erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction is emerging as one of the most serious life style and stress related disease. Sexual desire, arousal and orgasm are mediated complex yet still not fully understood, there is somatic and autonomic nervous system operating at the central and peripheral levels. Sexual behavior is regulated by both subcortical structure and several cortical brain areas. Providing healthcare professionals with information concerning sexual behavior may overcome useless and dangerous barriers. This narrative review aims at characterizing the involvement of the nervous system in human sexual behavior.
