Master - Your future with ED has a lot to do with the current causes. There are a number of physical conditions that can cause ED and some of these are treatable. There are also emotional or psychological causes that can be successfully addressed with counseling. Age is also a factor and older men are increasingly likely to experience some erectile problems. Obviously, we have no power over the hands of time. Ask your doctor for a thorough workup to determine what the underlying causes might be, do whatever you can to address those problems, and take it a step at a time.
