title: [Disorders of sexual potency].
abstract: "Impotence" means the inability to have a normal coitus. Usually it is erectile dysfunction or inhibition of orgastic control. As many men are incapable of speaking openly about these problems and hope that the cause of their sexual dysfunctions is of organic origin. Therefore such reasons are offered with preference. The doctor has to separate the patient's account from the actual facts and the results of the physical examination as it is the practice with every other disease. A combination of somatic und psychotherapeutical treatment may thus be successful.
