Impotence and ageAlternative NamesErection difficulties - age related InformationQuestion: Do most men experience impotence (difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection) with age? Answer: Getting older does not mean you will experience impotence, although sexual responses may become slower and less intense. For example, it may take longer to achieve an erection than it did when you were younger. On the other hand, you may maintain an erection for a longer period of time. See impotence for details.
