Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
Erectile Dysfunction is the consistent or recurrent inability to attain or maintain a penile erection sufficient to permit satisfactory sexual intercourse. ED relates only to the erectile capability of the penis - excluding probelms of sexual desire, ejaculation and orgasm.

ED is a common sexual problem yet the incidince of ED among the general population is difficlut to estimate due to limited scientific inquiries. There is general agreement that erectile dysfunction affect one in ten men over the age of 21.
Most men experience occasional erectile failures at some time during their lives, often as a result of fatigue, temporary stress, or drinking excess alcohol.

Just as an erection can result from thinking about sex, negative thoughts can inhibit an erection from occuring. Performance and anxiety, negative imnages, and guilt can cause psychogenic erectile dysfunction.

The impact of smoking on sexual health was confirmed in a recent study, in which men who experienced difficulty maintaining an erection suffered more problems if they smoked. Moderate alcohol intake may impair erectile function.

Therapies available for erectile dysfunction, depending on the cause and extent of the problem include: systemicc drug treatment, arterial surgery, implanted penile prostheses, treatment of underlying diseases, diabetes and hormonal disturbances.
