Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction, or impotence, is the inability to get and keep an erection firm enough for sex.
Having erection trouble from time to time isn't necessarily a cause for concern. If erectile dysfunction is an ongoing issue, however, it can cause stress, affect your self-confidence and contribute to relationship problems. Problems getting or keeping an erection also can be a sign of an underlying health condition that needs treatment, and it can be a risk factor for heart disease.
If you're concerned about erectile dysfunction, in-person or video consultations are available. Sometimes treating an underlying condition is enough to reverse erectile dysfunction. In other cases, medications or other treatments might be needed.

Depending on the cause and severity of your erectile dysfunction, as well as any underlying health conditions, you might have various treatment options.
