Abstract 

We surveyed 234 sexually active males aged 18–25 years about erectile dysfunction (ED). Thirteen percent reported ED, but rarely discussed this with medical providers; 25% reported ED occurring with condom use, which was associated with risky sex. Six percent used ED medications, rarely under medical supervision, and often mixed with recreational drugs.
