Coping with ED

Erectile dysfunction (ED) may cause emotional and mental stress for both the man and his partner. The following points are of vital importance in helping you cope with the problem :

• Speak with your partner more frequently and frankly about your problem. This will help you build your relationship and treatment works better when the couple is in it together. Good communication must be maintained during the whole treatment process.
• Try to seek counseling. Keep in mind that it could be difficult to solve ED on you own.
• Do not assume that you have a constant problem if you experience ED from time to time. In case you expect the problem to happen again during your next sexual intercourse, chances are your psychological state might prevail.
• Do not reckon just one incident of ED as ultimate seal of your masculinity and virility.
• Do not consider just one incident of ED as the ultimate seal on your masculinity.
• Do not forget to assure your partner that your inability to have an erection is not a sign of vanished sexual desire
