Talking With Your Partner About Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction is not unusual. This is the first thing to take into account if you are suffering from erectile dysfunction. You are not alone. This common men’s health issue is treatable, so don’t worry. This is not the end of your sex life. Revive Medical Center treats erectile dysfunction, and we advise that part of the treatment is discussing your erectile dysfunction with your sexual partner. Getting things out in the open can actually help treat erectile dysfunction because it relieves the stress and embarrassment of this condition.

Be Open

Many things can cause erectile dysfunction including health issues and stress. Be open and honest with your partner about what is going on in your life right now. Do you have a health condition that causes erectile dysfunction? If so, tell him her or her about this condition. Are you under a lot of stress at work or in life? If so, tell him or her this, too.

Be Honest

Be honest about the above and about erectile dysfunction. Let your partner know that the problem is a common medical condition from which many men suffer. Be honest about any type of pressure that your partner is putting on you, as this can increase your chances of having difficulties in bed. An open and honest communication about your erectile dysfunction is crucial to resolving it.

Listen to Your Partner

Give your partner an opportunity to discuss her or his concerns and listen carefully. It might be that your partner is concerned about a medical condition that is causing your erectile dysfunction and is frightened that having sex could be harmful to your health. If your partner is hesitant regarding sex, you may take this personally and this will increase your chances of erectile dysfunction.

Don’t Be Embarrassed

Never be embarrassed about erectile dysfunction. Again, and we cannot state this enough, this happens to every man at least once or twice in his life. Erectile dysfunction is a common problem in middle-aged and older men, and, again, it also happens due to medical conditions and stress. An open conversation with your partner will help relieve embarrassment on both sides.

Discuss Solutions

Finally, discuss solutions with the medical professionals here at Revive Medical Center and your partner. It’s important to include your partner in any erectile dysfunction solution because it gives your partner a chance to express her or his concerns.
