Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Thank you for your question.

Erection problems are common in adult men.

An erection problem is when a man cannot get or keep an erection that is firm enough to have intercourse. He may be unable to get an erection at all. Or, he may lose the erection during intercourse before he ejaculates.

Almost all men sometimes have trouble getting or keeping an erection.

In many cases, the problem goes away with little or no treatment. In other cases, it can be an ongoing problem. If he has trouble getting or keeping an erection more than 25% of the time, it is a problem and he should consult his physician.

Regards,
Maryann
