Impotence can have a psychogenic or organic basis, or a combination of both. Many times the partial erection or inability to maintain the erection is at least somewhat the result of the aging process. Once the cause has been established, through careful history taking and appropriate testing, the physician, along with the patient and his partner, can choose the most desirable treatment method. With patience and realistic expectations, the patient can usually achieve a satisfactory resolution of the problem.
阳痿可能有心理性或器质性基础，或两者兼而有之。很多时候，部分勃起功能障碍或无法维持勃起至少在一定程度上是衰老过程的结果。一旦通过仔细询问病史和进行适当检查确定了病因，医生与患者及其伴侣可以共同选择最理想的治疗方法。只要有耐心并抱有现实的期望，患者通常能够使问题得到满意的解决。
