Hi Your vitamin D is low but unlikely that your erectile dysfunction is due to the same. ED can be caused by multiple factors. Firstly get yourself evaluated by a urologist and rule out organic causes for ED. If that’s ruled out it might be psychological for which you need to consult a psychiatrist.
