Medical News Today -- UroToday.com - In our recent article published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, we used statistical modeling to make the first-reported estimate of the extent to which treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) affects erection maintenance directly versus indirectly via erection hardness. Because erection maintenance (along with erection hardness) is a physiologic requirement for satisfactory sexual performance, our aim was to guide treatment goals toward optimizing erection maintenance and therefore achieving successful sexual intercourse.
