Erectile dysfunction (ED), also known as impotence, is the inability to achieve or sustain an erection for satisfactory sexual activity. Erectile dysfunction is different from other conditions that interfere with sexual intercourse, such as lack of sexual desire and problems with ejaculation and orgasm. This article focuses on the evaluation and treatment of erectile dysfunction.
Erectile dysfunction, a sexual problem that affects between 15 million and 30 million American men, can be caused by injury, stress, or certain diseases or medications, among other things. A man with erectile dysfunction has a repeated inability to get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse. While the incidence of erectile dysfunction increases with age, erectile dysfunction is not an inevitable part of aging. There are medicines (such as Viagra, Levitra, Sildenafil Citrate, Kamagra, Proscar and Cialis) that can effectively treat erectile dysfunction at any age; and additional types of erectile dysfunction medication are currently being tested for safety and effectiveness.
