Doom scrolling, the excessive consumption of negative online news, is linked to erectile dysfunction (ED) due to its effect on the dopamine reward system. Chronic stress from doom scrolling disrupts dopamine function, impacting sexual arousal and performance. While regular digital use isn't inherently harmful, addictive behavior with social media can also negatively affect sexual health through dopamine dysregulation. The sources explore the neurochemical pathways involved, highlighting the importance of managing stress and digital consumption for optimal sexual health. Long-term dopamine dysregulation from stress can cause various sexual issues including decreased libido and hypersexuality.
