What is erectile dysfunction?

The term "erectile dysfunction" has replaced the outdated term "impotence".
The word "impotence" is no longer used because it does not give a clear explanation of the problem. Moreover, the use of this term has led to an incorrect understanding of the condition. Men suffering from erectile dysfunction, are not sterile and retain the ability to ejaculation and orgasm, as well as all other men. They also have all the normal male sexual characteristics. Erectile dysfunction can be defined as "the inability to achieve and (or) maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity."The majority of men at some time in life can be a problem with achieving and maintaining an erection, possibly due to excessive stress, too much alcohol, or simply fatigue. However, if this problem persists, it most likely is associated with erectile dysfunction.
