Simply put this means that the male is unable to achieve and sustain an erection necessary for sexual activity. This can happen at some time in any man’s life, but should this become a repeated situation, then the cause needs to be found and treated.
Does this mean a lack of interest in sex, lack of virility or sterility?
No,
none of these. The inability to have and maintain an erection does not denote any lessening of interest in sexual activity, virility, lack of strength and power, or sterility.

Regarding relationship problems - it is more beneficial to be open and direct with your partner and discuss the problem openly. This should help your partner to understand just what effect impotence is having on you, and bring to bear patience and understanding.

What Does Medical Diagnosing Comprise?
Normally it will take the form of obtaining a medical and sexual history, questions will be asked about smoking, alcohol consumption and whether or not any medications are currently being taken. Mainly the physical side of the examination will include taking blood pressure and just a standard examination. If there is an underlying medical cause, laboratory tests on blood and urine will help to determine treatment needed.

Impotency - Should The Male Accept This and Learn to Live With it? NO
Impotence can be a source of emotional stress, and in turn this will lead to a loss of self-confidence, poor self-image and maybe depression. It is one of those health areas which provokes a feeling of embarrassment and reluctance to discuss the problem, but this means that the condition, as long as it is not diagnosed, remains untreated. Medical advice must be sought to obtain the best and most appropriate treatment.
As mentioned earlier this condition is a very difficult condition to live with, but if you are in a relationship the best thing to do is discuss openly with your partner the problem rather than bottle things up as this will lead to more problems.

Not necessarily, although as you would expect there is a higher incidence among older men because of age-related conditions, vascular disease, diabetes, etc. Any disorder that causes nerve injury or an impairment of the flow of blood to the penis may cause erectile dysfunction. The medications for these diseases can add to the problem. Impotence is not a natural nor acceptable part of growing old. Erectile dysfunction is treatable at any age, and awareness of this is growing and this has lead to more men seeking help and returning to normal sexual activity. Between 15 and 25 percent of 65 year old men experience erectile dysfunction, but it should not be taken as inevitable because of aging.
