AB  - Erectile  dysfunction  (ED)  is  defined  as  consistent  or  recurrent  inability  to  attain  and/or  maintain  penile  erection  sufficient  for  sexual  satisfaction.1  Although  simple  in  construction,  this  definition  encompasses  a  number  of  important  considerations  when  addressing  the  issue  of  ED;  specifically,  a  man  with  ED  may  be  able  to  achieve  an  erection  but  unable  to  sustain  it  during  or  after  penetration.  Similarly,  the  inclusion  of  a  consideration  for  overall  satisfaction  (applied  primarily  to  the  man  himself  but  theoretically  applicable  to  the  sexual  partner’s  satisfaction)  indicates  how  satisfaction,  bother,  and  interpersonal  dimensions  are  critical  determinants  of  clinically  relevant  ED.
