Erectile dysfunction or impotence is the inability to get and keep an erection firm enough for sex. Having erection trouble from time to time isn't necessarily a cause for concern. If erectile dysfunction is an ongoing issue, however, it can lead to other problems like stress and can affect self-confidence and contribute to relationship problems. Problem in getting or keeping an erection can also be a sign of an underlying health condition that needs treatment and can be a risk factor for heart disease.
