Impotence, more commonly known as erectile dysfunction, is the repeated inability to get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse.

Treatment for impotence often involves medications and counseling (which can help couples deal with the emotional effects of the condition). The health conditions that caused impotence should also be treated.
