What is Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile Dysfunction (ED), also called impotence, affects up to 30 million men in the US. ED is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient to perform sexual intercourse. Although the incidence of ED increases with age, it is not a normal part of aging and can usually be successfully treated.
Experiencing occasional erection trouble is typically not a cause for alarm. However, when erectile dysfunction becomes an ongoing concern, it may affect the quality of life. When ED has begun to cause stress, affect self-confidence, and get in the way of a relationship, it may be time to talk to a doctor about receiving medical treatment for ED in San Antonio or Austin, TX.
Can you treat Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction treatment in San Antonio usually involves examining the individual’s medical history and lifestyle habits, as erection troubles may signal underlying health conditions that require treatment. The physicians at The Urology Place provide the appropriate solution to ED by identifying any underlying health issues that affect the patient’s ability to get or keep an erection.
ED can also be caused by hormonal imbalances such as low testosterone, often called “Low T”.

What should you do if you think you have Erectile Dysfunction?
If
you think you have ED, or if you are experiencing any erection problems, it is important to schedule an appointment with your doctor. Erection problems could be a sign of a more serious underlying health condition, so should be assessed as early on as possible.
Remember, Erectile Dysfunction is treatable in nearly all men and it is a very common condition – about 50% of men experience ED at some point in their lives. Unfortunately, impotence is one of the leading causes of male depression and mental health decline. It can also put significant stress on relationships.
