Erectile dysfunction or impotence is related to a man's condition where he is not able to get a better hardness of his penis and unable to sustain the hardness. People with erectile dysfunction or impotence are known to have many psychological issues like depression and stress. If the problem of erectile dysfunction or impotence persists, it may lead to many problems between partners and also bring in many family problems.

Erectile dysfunction or Impotence comes in two types - primary and secondary. Primary impotence is a condition where a man has never been able to have an erection. A rare condition seen among men, primary impotence means the complete failure or inability to get an erection. Primary impotence is mainly seen in young people.

Primary impotence is mainly related to psychological issues rather than physical. Societal, intra-psychic, and family issues can lead to primary impotence. The other causes of primary impotence include performance anxiety, religious beliefs that relate sex as a sin, seductive relationship with mother, anger towards women, traumatic failure and fear of impregnating a woman.

Once you feel of having any erection issues, it is better to contact the doctor as he can only determine if you are having primary or secondary impotence. He is the only person who can strengthen your mind and lead you to have a normal sex life.

As primary impotence is more related to the mental condition, the impotence drugs like cialis, viagra and levitra have only a lesser role to play. It is better to have a psychological treatment rather than go for other medications.
