    Erectile Dysfunction Definition

    Erectile dysfunction, which is also referred to as ED, is a health condition that can make men incapable of getting or keeping an erection strong enough in order to engage into sexual intercourse.

    Erectile dysfunction can affect a man in the short-term as well as in the long-term. You might be diagnosed with erectile dysfunction if you:

    • Are able to get an erection from time to time, but you cannot control it, in order to keep it firm;
    • Are able to have an erection, but it is not enough in order to get and offer satisfactory intercourse;
    • Are mostly incapable of having an erection when you want to.
