Impotence - You do not talk about it

The medical phrase is called erectile dysfunction (ED). But phrases like "failing virility" are used, too. Common speech, however, uses the term impotence, which is no help for people suffering from it, for this term has a negative connotation. Many people who suffer from erectile dysfunction do not feel like full men; their self-confidence suffers, what has negative effects on their relationship. They avoid their partner, dodge body contact and do not search a speakout. But social contacts and their efficiency at work suffer as well. First of all, it has to be said that an unfrequent dysfunction is no need to worry. People do not work like machines - stress, overloading, insomnia, worries and most of all relationship problems influence sexuality, of course.

Furthermore, an erectile dysfunction can hint at not yet diagnosed illnesses - such as diabetes,

a coronal heart disease or artiosklerosis. To find out reasons for the dysfunction at an early stage is therefore important and should be carried out as fast as possible. But no matter which reasons cause the erectile dysfunction: First of all, the man has to take the important and maybe difficult step to talk with his partner about the problem. Most women feel that an erectile dysfunction is less bad than their backing out partners who do not or merely unsufficiently answer questions. By now there are a lot of medicaments and additives that enable an erection even though an erectile dysfunction exists. An urologist can deal with problems individually and can give advice. In this context it should be mentioned in any case that fulfilling sex with relish for both partners is possible even without an erection.
