Erectile dysfunction refers to difficulty in getting the penis erect or maintaining it in the erect position for substantial periods. Men with erectile dysfunction are able to ejaculate, but the satisfaction of intercourse is minimal. Besides, penile problems can indicate much serious conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular problems and nervous disorders. Men need to realize that an erectile dysfunction disorder is nothing to be ashamed of and that it can be cured in almost every situation.
The first course of action that most men adopt for erectile dysfunction is the drug Sildenafil, popularly called Viagra. However, in nearly a third of the cases, the patients do not respond to Viagra. Moreover, Viagra can be potentially lethal to men with cardiovascular disease and hence the drug cannot be prescribed to all. Nonetheless, there are various other solutions to dysfunction problems, but before a treatment can be finalized the underlying cause for the dysfunction needs to be identified. Sometimes, men cannot achieve erection because of performance anxiety and such an issue can be resolved in a few sessions with a psychologist.

Most people have generally accepted the causes of the way of contracting the disease but there is still a handful who believes that there are other methods that it can be picked up as well such as a door handle or public washrooms for example.
There is no one part of the body that is safe from the effects of AIDS. Most often individuals go to their doctor complaining of just general poor health then through this investigation of the problem AIDS will often show up as being the culprit. Based on this many people are afraid to go to the doctor because they are concerned about being diagnosed. There are thousands of people that walk around every day with HIV and don't even know they have it and this is what makes it dangerous in respect to sexual acts of those who are unsuspecting of the AIDs virus.
