Erectile Dysfunction

What is ED?

When a man can't get an erection to have intercourse or can't keep an erection long enough to finish having sex, it's called Erectile Dysfunction or Impotence.

Erectile Dysfunction can occur at any age, but it is more common in men older than 65.

Men of any age may experience instances of Erectile Failure at some time or another. Erectile Dysfunction (ED), also known as Male Impotence, is considered a serious problem when it occurs consistently or for a long period of time, causing significant stress to the individual or to his relationship.

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction are physiological and psychological. Reduced blood flows to the penis and nerve damage are the most common causes. Underlying causes include the following:

  • Diabetes
  • Drugs
  • Vascular Disease
  • Hormone Imbalance
  • Neurological Causes
  • Pelvic Trauma and Surgery
  • Peyronie's Disease
  • Venous Leak
  • Psychological Factors

The Sexual Dysfunction Association estimates that 1 in 10 men in the UK have recurring problems with their erections at some point in their life.

Most men have difficulty getting an erection from time to time, due to stress, tiredness, drinking too much alcohol, or simply not being in the mood.

If it only happens now and again, then its usually nothing to worry about. But if you keep finding yourself unable to get or keep an erection and its preventing you carrying out your normal sex life, disrupting your relationship, or making you depressed, you should seek help from your GP.

The Symptoms of Erectile Dysfunction are:

  • not being able to get an erection, even when you are exposed to sexual situations or material such as a sexy scene in a film, which would normally give you an erection; and/or
  • if you do get an erection, it does not last, or is not hard enough, for you to complete sexual intercourse or perform another regular sexual activity.

Many men are too embarrassed to talk about problems with their erections, or are worried about wasting their GP's time. But it is worth seeking help, because your Doctor will often be able to give you some simple advice or treatment that could solve the problem.

Viagra is a proven treatment option for Erectile Dysfunction (ED). Viagra requires a prescription, then it can be purchased at any pharmacy, either in person, online, or through the mail. If you don't feel comfortable going to a Doctor to get a prescription, you can go through the prescription process online as well.
