Erectile dysfunction isn’t talked about very often, but ED studies show there’s a lot of it about...
Although it's a subject that most men prefer to keep quiet about, studies have shown that erectile dysfunction affects 52% of those aged 18 to 79. And the older the man, the more likely he is to have it – a German study puts the figure at 89% of 70 to 79 year olds.
ED is also linked to certain medical conditions. Obesity is one, diabetes another, which brings a 50% greater risk. If you’ve got high blood pressure (hypertension) or high cholesterol, you’ve got another possible cause of erection problems.
