Most men occasionally experience problems achieving an erection.
However, for one in ten, impotence becomes a chronic condition. It has been estimated that 10 million men in the US are impotent. Erection problems can be caused by illness, drugs, depression, or a vicious cycle of stress and anxiety. Whatever the cause, erection problems can undermine a man's self confidence and erode his relationship with his partner. The first step a couple can take to restoring a pleasurable sex life is to seek professional help.
