According to a survey of over 1,000 people by sex toy company Adam & Eve, 77% said they have at some point experienced difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection, and 23% didn’t.

Why does this happen?

“Erectile dysfunction can occur for a variety of reasons,” said Adam & Eve’s resident sexologist Dr. Jenni Skyler. “Age, weight, alcohol use, certain medications, and underlying health conditions can all contribute to ED. Any man can have an issue maintaining an erection every once in a while. It becomes concerning when it occurs often and impacts your sex life.”
