Erectile dysfunction (ED) is very common. It is easily the most common sexual problem in men.

A 2018 research show that up to one third of all men are affected by ED.

It has been estimated that currently over 150 million men worldwide suffer from ED and by 2025, the figure will increase beyond 322 million.

ED can occur at any age, but it is more common in older men – about 10 percent of men between age 40 and 49 years are affected compared to over 50 percent of those over 70 years.

Older men are more affected because they are likely to have health conditions that require medications, some of which can interfere with erectile function. Additionally, as men age, they may need more stimulation to get an erection and more time between erections.

ED often causes serious distress, prompting men to seek medical attention they may not otherwise seek. It often has a profound effect on intimate relationships, quality of life, and overall self-esteem
