Men who suffer with erection problems (erectile dysfunction or impotence) have
frequent difficulties with getting or keeping an erection sufficient to have
satisfying sex.
The man is often unable to penetrate their partner or keep their erection to
allow enjoyable sex. This is a common problem. Half of all men over the age of 40
years have some difficulties with getting and keeping their erections. The problem
becomes more prevalent in older men. It is thought that about 1/5 men between 50
and 54 years and half of men between 70 and 74 years have erection problems.
90% of men do not seek treatment. This is remarkable because the treatments
available are highly effective in many cases when they are used appropriately.
They are also very safe if authorised by a registered doctor and used as

Causes of Erection Problems
Both psychological and physical considerations can cause a man to
have erection problems. In all cases a reduced blood flow to the penis causes an
insufficient erection.
Physical factors are present in three quarters of cases. The following things can cause or
contribute to erection problems; diabetes, alcohol and drug abuse, smoking, high cholesterol,
stroke, low blood flow to the penis or too much leakage of blood from the penis, nerve damage,
hormone imbalance.
Psychological factors that contribute to or cause erectile dysfunction include; an unhappy
relationship, stress and anxiety and depression. Men with erection problems often suffer from
the fear of failure. Men who have suffered from erection problems in the past worry about their
performance, and this removes the pleasure of feeling sexually excited. This in itself
contributes to their erection problems.
Treatments
The most common treatments for erection problems are Viagra
(sildenafil), Cialis (tadalafil) and Levitra
(vardenafil), but because there are many
possible causes there are many different treatments.
If there is an underlying problem, such as a hormonal imbalance addressing this can
remove the erection problems. In some cases surgery can ensure normal blood flow is
restored. Treatment of depression can remove erection problems caused by this.
Psychotherapy can be of great help if the cause is psychological. In many cases
medicines will be prescribed by a patient’s doctor to directly assist the body to
create and maintain a good erection no matter what the cause. These medicines can
either be injected into the penis (E.g. Caverject (alprostadil), inserted into the
eye of the penis (E.g. MUSE (alprostadil)) or taken as a tablet (e.g. Cialis
(tadalafil), Levitra (vardenafil), Viagra (sildenafil).
