Relationships With Others

Erectile dysfunction may follow acute problems with other family members. Cialis seems to compensate each of them, but still you must know probable problem sources.
Adolescent children: Conflict with teenage children is among the common life events that lead to erectile problems. The conflict may completely preoccupy the father, blocking the relaxation that is necessary for satisfactory sexual function. Even where there is no conflict, when older children return home for holidays, empty-nest parents who have become accustomed to total privacy may find sexual activity more difficult. Fortunately, erectile problems of this nature are usually reversed when the little darlings leave.
Adult children: More significant difficulty may arise when a grown child returns to live at home. The mere presence of the child may cause sexual inhibition, or secondly, the circumstances which led to the child’s return often may be distressing of themselves.
Elderly parents: When an older parent comes to live with a couple, the couple’s sexual relationship may suffer from the disruption of established family habits and also possibly from stress over the role reversal in which the older parent has become like a “child.”
Of course, the above discussion includes only some of the multitude of life events that can precipitate erectile dysfunction. Many of the erection problems described in this section will disappear over time, depending on the severity of the trauma of the triggering event. Up to a month may be required for return of erectile function following a relatively minor traumatic event. On the other hand, following a major traumatic event, up to six months may be required for return to normal erectile function.
