A member asked:

Is it normal for a 37 years old male having hypertension not able to achieve a rigid erection with his wife?even on viagra (sildenafil) 50mg it is not working!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ed: erectile dysfunction is never "normal". having said that, erectile dysfunction is somewhat common in hypertensives. see a urologist for a complete evaluation of erectile dysfunction
