Well now it's the turn of the girls to talk about erectile dysfunction...

So Ukmedix News recently uploaded a story that focused on the male attitude to erectile dysfunction and a chat that the boys in the Ukmedix Newsroom had..... Well now it's the turn of the girls to talk about erectile dysfunction and believe me some of them know what they are talking about.

Well after a bit of persuading Emma came forward (not her real name), she says that one boyfriend she had couldn't get an erection the first time they tried to have sex and that she was so humiliated because she thought that he didn't find her attractive. She said that he claimed that he was under stress and that this had never happened before and he was very confused. She said that they carried on going out but kept on avoiding a situation where they would be alone so that they didn't have to face the impotence problem.

Things came right later but she is still not sure what caused the problem in the first place. It sounds like a case of performance anxiety, which is the most common type of psychological impotence and which kills many otherwise perfect relationships at their very beginning.

Other women in the newsroom spoke about the fact that when their partners have drunk too much they often can't get erect and that when they work out and are generally fit and healthy they tend to be much better in bed. What is apparent is that women suffer from the impotence of their partners as much as the men do and this means that in a loving relationship the burden of the problem should be shared and talked about. Research shows that those couples that talk about erectile dysfunction and who are confident enough to talk about sexual issues are much more likely to resolve any problems that they might have.
