My father has BPH and has finally listened to me to get a proper diagnosis to see if he has thyroid and low t levels. I know he has both just from all the symptoms he tells me he has. I know it's hard to tell exactly by just symptoms since they can be interchanged with one another. My question...

I have been reading conflicting information. Does BPH cause ED or are they separate issues?

Just started seeing a new doc and he gave me a BPH blood test. I have noticed everyone on here gets PSA. In Lamens terms can someone talk me through the difference and was the test he got me just pointless?
