Erectile Dysfunction

Has anyone experienced Erectile Dysfunction after their transplant. What was the cause and what treatment did the doctor prescribe for it. I am 2 years post transplant and this a big problem for me. I am thinking it could be the medications I am talking but not sure or any other cause. I want to start dating again but I feel that this problem is holding me back. Is this a common problem for transplant patients. Would anyone like to comment on this subject. Thanks in advance.

Appreciate your honesty. I have been told that kidney disease itself can cause ED as well as Prograf. Viagra may be an answer
