Erectile Dysfunction (Impotence)

What is Erectile Dysfunction?

What do we mean by Erectile Failure: is defined as persistent or recurrent, partial or/ complete, failure to obtain or sustain, an erection until completion of satisfactory sexual activity. 
Alternative terms  for erectile dysfunction are Impotence, erectile failure, erectile dysfunctions, sexual inadequacy, sexual weakness, less erection, decreased erection, failure in intercourse, sexual incompetence, unable to sex i.e. intercourse, erection problem, napunsakata, less hardness of penis, looseness of penis in mid of sex or before penetration, E. D., ED, etc.
The symbol for the man's "masculinity" is the erect penis. It represents manhood and is expected to be ready to perform at a moment's notice. 
When man suffers with erectile failure it comes as a major shock, when suddenly the symbol of his masculinity does not respond on. It usually means much more to the man than the simple fact that he is not responding sexually at that moment. It causes him to question his status as an adequate male. Thus when he fails, becomes panicky. 

Severity of Impotence: It can take on many forms as:
I t may be complete erectile disorder: i.e. some men achieve no erection at all. For others, an erection may occur in the regular manner, but as the love play continues the erection is lost (we call it mid failure). For still others, the erection may be maintained very adequately up to the point of entry. As soon as entry is either contemplated or attempted, the erection disappears. For some, erection may be maintained beyond the point of entry, and then wane after a period of activity inside the vagina. No matter when the erection goes away, its loss is always troublesome. Erectile dysfunctions though a benign disorder has a great impact on the affected individual. Patient feels frustrated, depressed, ashamed, has lowered self-esteem & may even disturb his family relationship. There has been an explosion in the interest in male sexual dysfunction with the development in techniques of modern scientific diagnosis & treatment of male sexual disorders with very good treatment outcomes. Now majority patients are cured by proper diagnosis & correction of the defect. Thus now more & more people are seeking medical advice regarding their problems.
