Erectile Dysfunction
What is it?
Erectile dysfunction (ED), sometimes called "impotence", is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection for sexual intercourse. Impotence can involve three aspects of erection development: the time to develop an erection, the strength of the erection, or the amount of stimulation needed to achieve an erection. Erectile dysfunction may be a result of a variety of factors, ranging from chronic diseases, medications, to psychological factors.
