Men fear the thought of having erectile dysfunction at any point in their lives. This is because it literally makes them feel useless, even to themselves!

 

Experts say if a man has an occasional problem achieving an erection, it is really nothing to worry about. However, if he is having a problem more than half of the time when trying to have sexual intercourse, he should make an appointment with his doctor.

 

Many things can make a man experience erectile dysfunction, and they include lack of sleep, illness, diabetes, heart conditions or emotional stress.

 

Contrary to what many — including men — think, the penis doesn’t just rise up to the occasion immediately a man thinks of s*x or even when he sees a stimulating sight, such as a woman’s naked body.

 

Rather, an erection is a result of several conditions that must work together for anything to happens, urologists say.

 

So, how do you know if you have erectile dysfunction? These ways…

 

• How many times during the last four weeks did you have the feeling that your bladder wasn’t completely emptied after urination?

 

• How many times during the last four weeks did you have to urinate another time within two hours?

 

• How many times during the last four weeks did it happen that you had to stop urination a few times just to restart again after a few seconds (sputtering out rather than a regular stream)?

• In recent times, do you have less sex with my partner because you’re afraid of not getting an erection or not being able to keep it up?

 

• Compared with three to five years ago, is it distinctly more difficult to get and/or keep up an erection?

 

• Do you feel tension/nervousness before having s*x?

 

• During sex, do you intentionally check the strength of your erection?
