Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
Although erectile dysfunction (ED) does increase with aging, it need not be accepted as a normal part of aging. Rather, because older men are more likely to have medical conditions that affect the blood vessels they are also more likely to have ED. Many older couples engage in satisfying sexual activity without erections or intercourse and may not choose to seek treatment. Nevertheless, treatment of ED can be appropriate for older men.
