Sexual problems can lead to embarrassment and anxiety.

Sexual health is a source of concern for many men.

In this section, we list a few common issues that can become concerns. Talk to your doctor. And although you may need to rethink some expectations about your – or your partner’s sexual response – there are treatment options available. Talk to your partner.

Open and supportive communication on these often-sensitive topics can go a long way. Yet some men are not comfortable talking to their doctors about sex. Others wrongly think that sexual problems are a normal part of aging. But treatment can help with many sexual health issues.

No matter what your age, talk to your doctor if you have:

• Problems getting an erection
• Problems keeping an erection
• Less interest in sex
• Other problems that keep you or your partner from enjoying sex
