Impotence
Erections result from a combination of factors including brain stimuli, blood vessel and nerve function, and hormones. If any of these processes fails, and a man is not able to achieve or maintain an erection for intercourse, it is called impotence. Factors that can lead to impotence include various medications, diabetes, high blood pressure, alcohol or nicotine abuse and hormonal disturbances. Impotence can be a chronic condition; men over forty are more likely to suffer from it. Although in the past many doctors believed that this was a psychological disorder, it is now believed that a majority of cases have a physical cause.
