Abstract
Erectile dysfunction is a common sexual problem for males in the United States. Health care practitioners need to consider sexual concerns as part of their holistic approach to clients who have sexual problems. This article examines the etiology, assessment and treatment of erectile dysfunctions in the heterosexual male. Physical and psychological influences on erectile dysfunctions are discussed. History-taking, including sexual history, physical assessment and common diagnostic tests, are described for the practitioner who is caring for the sexually dysfunctional client. General treatment modalities and referral needs are discussed.
