A member asked:

The sexual perfomance of male (erectil function) at what "age" begin to decrease and need viagra (sildenafil)...all elderly need viagra (sildenafil) for sexual intercourse ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No specific age: Ed is a vascular problem that can affect a male at any age but it's frequency increases as we get older, as does the frequency of vascular disease. To delay or avoid ed, stay active and healthy and screen early for risk factors of vascular disease such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, high lipids, and smoking.
