Devastating Effects of ED

Men suffering with erectile dysfunction generally fail to have a sexual intercourse as they lose the erection in between the sexual activity. Men suffering with the erectile dysfunction are not able to satisfy their partner as they get very soft erections; as a result they fail to make their partner reach the ultimate step of sex, the orgasm. Men who fail to achieve the erection or sustain the erection refrain from the sexual activity as they feel ashamed of it.
