It’s not really a topic men like to discuss, especially between their friends however in your group of friends or in your office at least one man does/will suffer from erectile dysfunction (ED). Many men also believe ED is something which only affects old men, however it can strike at any age, so how do you know if you have erectile dysfunction?

Well ED is the inability to get and maintain an erection that is sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse. Sometimes ED may just be temporary, however because there are a number of causes you could suffer from ED permanently. ED is not to be confused with premature ejaculation which is where a man ‘comes’ too quickly or retarded ejaculation which is where a man cannot reach climax.

Many men are probably aware what the treatments for ED are, the most famous one is Viagra or ‘the little blue pill’ as it’s also know other ED treatments include Levitra, and Cialis. However all of these treatments come with side effects so you should always visit your doctor before taking them.

ED in young men tends to be caused by anxiety, you know, worrying about having sex if you’re not experienced, worrying about causing pregnancy and problems with condoms. This type of ED is something you normally grow out of with experience! For those in middle age, ED can be caused by stress, such as work or home life, cutting down on these types of stresses (if you can) can help. It can also be caused by diabetes so it’s always good to seek regular health checks. Finally for those older, you will find that the chance of having ED increases because of general health deterioration.

So what should you do if you suffer from erectile dysfunction? Well don’t jump straight on the internet to buy drugs from a dodgy retailer, god knows what you might end up getting, visit your doctor first, sometimes speaking to someone can actually help. If you still find that you need ED drugs then make sure you buy them from pharmacies and reputable online sellers such as www.ukmedix.com, where you can also get advice.
