Overview

Erectile dysfunction refers to the repeated or persistent inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse. Occasional erection problems are normal and usually harmless. However, if the difficulties persist over time, a medical evaluation is worthwhile – in many cases the condition can be treated well once the underlying causes are identified.

Common causes

The causes are varied and often a combination of physical and psychological factors. Physical triggers include cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, excess weight and hormonal disorders. Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption and certain medications can also play a role. On the psychological side, stress, anxiety, relationship problems and depression contribute. The condition becomes more common with age, but ED is not an inevitable part of getting older.

When to see a doctor

A medical evaluation makes sense if erection problems last longer than a few weeks or are distressing you. This conversation is particularly important because ED can be an early warning sign of cardiovascular disease. Seek medical advice promptly if you have additional symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath or pain in the genital area. In the event of sudden chest pain, breathing difficulties or a suspected emergency, call the emergency number 112 immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is treating ED via telemedicine legal?

Yes. Following a full medical history and the exclusion of contraindications, prescribing PDE-5 inhibitors via telemedicine is legal and safe in Germany.

How much does sildenafil cost?

Sildenafil is available inexpensively as a generic. The price depends on the dose and quantity. With a private prescription you pay the pharmacy price without any statutory health insurance discount.

Are there any drug interactions?
