What is erectile dysfunction?
When a man can't get an erection to have sex or can't keep an erection
long enough to finish having sex, it's called erectile dysfunction.
Erectile dysfunction is also called impotence. Erectile dysfunction can
occur at any age, but it is more common in men older than 65.
Is erectile dysfunction just a part of old age?
Erectile dysfunction doesn't have to be a part of getting older. It's
true that as you get older, you may need more stimulation (such as
stroking and touching) to get an erection. You might also need more time
between erections. But older men should still be able to get an erection
and enjoy sex.
What causes erectile dysfunction?
See the box to the right for some physical causes of erectile
dysfunction. The following medical problems can also cause erectile
dysfunction: Diabetes (high blood sugar) Hypertension (high blood
pressure) Atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) If you can't keep
your blood sugar or your blood pressure under control, you can get
erectile dysfunction. It's important that you take your medicines for
these problems just the way your doctor tells you. Sometimes your hormones
get out of balance and this causes erectile dysfunction. Your doctor will
decide if you need blood tests to check your hormones.
Some medicines can cause erectile dysfunction. If this is true for you,
your doctor may take you off that medicine or give you a different one.
Drinking too much alcohol, smoking too much and abusing drugs can also
cause erectile dysfunction.
Problems in your relationship with your sexual partner can also cause
erectile dysfunction. You might try therapy to see if improving your
relationship helps your sex life. Therapy will probably be most effective
if your sex partner is included. Couples can learn new ways to please one
another and to show affection. This can reduce any of your anxiety about
having erections.
How is erectile dysfunction treated?
There are many drugs available online like Generic Viagra,which is same
in quality as Viagra and sold cheaper than it.
