ED is the persistent or repeated inability to attain and/or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance in the presence of adequate sexual stimulation; some experts state that the complaint of such dysfunction generally should be present over a period of at least 3 months, although individual circumstances (e.g., surgical or traumatic causes, temporary dysfunction associated with stress of producing sperm specimens) may prompt an earlier diagnosis and/or therapy.
