How does an erection occur at 70?
9 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Same way as at 17: While erections may become less frequent and/or less firm as a man ages, they happen the same way and work the same way at any age. We humans are sexual creatures, and it is healthy to remain that way for our full lifespan.

Same as always: The physiology of an erection is the same at 70's as it is at 18. Granted there may be some vascular or nerve compromise that "blunts" the process so it's not as "potent" at 70 as when you are 18.
