Having an erectile dysfunction is certainly a very problematic situation for a man, but women may also suffer significantly from this condition. If a couple experiences erectile dysfunction, most women reflect the problem on themselves, thinking that they are the cause of the condition, or they are not attractive enough anymore to stimulate their men's sexual arousal. This is a very complicated situation, which if not addressed correctly may pose great danger to intimacy, trust and relations both on physical and psychological levels. Women can misinterpret the condition and retract themselves from their partners.

It's not about the lack of love

If you think that erectile dysfunction is caused by sexual disinterest or lack of love, you are wrong. In most cases, erectile dysfunction in men is caused by certain physical conditions. What strongly affects a man's ability to have and maintain an erection is the blood flow inside the penis, and there are numerous conditions such as hypertension, diabetes or cholesterol issues that affect the blood circulation in that area. Erectile dysfunction can also be a side-effect of certain drugs such as antidepressants. And let’s not forget about psychological causes such as depression, stress, anxiety or phobia that can be aggravated if you mistrust or accuse your partner in lack of interest or love.

What a woman can do in this situation?

The best course of action for a woman in this situation, who really loves her partner and wants to help him, is showing this to her man. You shouldn't be silent about the problem, but nor you have to accuse him. Show your concern in the problem and his health, express your love and say that you will work this through together. Your man really needs your support right now, and sometimes showing your worry can alone be beneficial in improving his sexual performance.

Anxiety over sexual abilities is something that should be left far behind if you want to help your man. What is really needed is seeking help of a professional, and women can be lifesavers in this situation, because men usually are not very enthusiastic about visiting doctors, especially concerning matters such as sexual performance. This is where a woman should make it clear that her partner's problems are her problems too and they will overcome it together. Love is the most needed thing right now, and learning how to express your feelings in a non-sexual way is really important.

Treating ED

The truth is that erectile dysfunction can be treated effectively. There are many medications such as Cialis that can help overcome the physical causes of male impotence. There are also numerous psychotherapy solutions that can help a man cope with his psychological issues that may be causing ED. Combining these two ways of treating ED can really be helpful. The key to success here is believing that the treatment will work and having a healthy and trusting atmosphere within your relations. There's no point in pushing your mane with his performance because it's a gradual process. Sooner or later you will be able to enjoy your sexual life as you did before, and even better, so relax and make sure your man is feeling all the love you have for him.
