The definition of an erectile problem is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for intercourse. Losing your erection in the middle of an intercourse can also be termed as an erectile dysfunction.
Erectile dysfunction is not a life threatening disease - so you can breathe a little easier. In fact, this problem is not that unusual, although you might think that you’re the only one suffering from it. In fact, erectile dysfunction is very common in adult males.
Erectile problems can be caused by the simplest things in life. Work or relationship stress is actually the most common causes of erectile problems. Because of this, most cases are only temporary. However, if you are having a problem achieving or maintaining an erection for more than 25% of the time, then you might have a ‘serious’ erection problem.
If you fall under this category, then it is recommended that you seek treatment. Medical assistance can go along way in your recovery. Studies have shown that your partner’s support can greatly improve recovery. So if it’s possible, ask your sexual partner to help you with your treatment and you may be recovering in no time at all!
