Men do experienceissues while having intimate issues or having intercourse. One of the most common issues with men is erectile dysfunction. We all know it popularly as erectile dysfunction. There is nothing newthat erectile dysfunction. Men do experience problems during intimate sessions.

Many men experience problems with sex, specifically erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence. Erectile dysfunctionis defined as regular difficulty getting or maintaining an erection for satisfying sex. It is not surprising that this happens. Getting an erection is a complex process where physical and psychological processes act together to make and keep the penis erect.

Erectile dysfunction is more likely to happen with older age. There is no specific age at which the penis suddenly stops working and erections no longer happen. And even though ED is common, not everyone experiences it.

Though research does not say when Erectile dysfunctionwill happen, many large studies give us some insight into the relationship between age, sexual function, and Erectile dysfunction.

Research clearly shows that, regardless of age, there are some risk factors for Erectile dysfunctionthat you do have some control over. For example, you can lower your chances of experiencing ED if you maintain a good diet and get plenty of exercise. You will also lower your risk of other health conditions that can cause Erectile dysfunctionor make it worse.

Put another way, prioritizing your general health and well-being as you age will benefit your sexual health, too.
