This condition is not considered normal at any age and is different from other problems that interfere with sexual intercourse, such as lack of sexual desire and problems with ejaculation and orgasm.
In order for erection to occur, the nerves of the penis must be functioning properly, blood circulation to the penis must be adequate and there must be proper stimulus from the brain.
If something interferes with any or all of these conditions, a full erection is not possible.
You can get one, but it’s not hard enough for pleasurable intercourse, while others get a hard erection but lose it before or during sex.
Some men aren’t able to get an erection at all.
Failure to achieve erection less than 20% of the time is not unusual and medical treatment is rarely needed.
Once this stage of erectile dysfunction is reached, medical treatment is required to reverse the situation.
But the causes of this minor problem might lead to a permanent condition where failure to achieve erection occurs more than 50% of the time.
According to the National Institutes of Health, a majority of men at some point in their life experience occasional failure to achieve erection which can occur for a variety of reasons such as drinking too much alcohol or from being extremely tired.
The following men report occasional problems getting and maintaining erections:
* 40% of men in their 40's
* 52% of men aged 40 to 70
* 70% of men in their 70's
At least 20 million American men have some degree of erectile dysfunction and about 1 in 10 adult males suffers long-term from Erectile Dysfunction.
Approximately 5 percent of 40-year-old men and between 15 and 25 percent of 65-year-old men experience erectile dysfunction on a long-term basis.
