Although prevalence estimates and cross-sectional correlates of erectile dysfunction have recently been established, incidence estimates were lacking. Incidence is necessary to assess risk, and plan treatment and prevention strategies. The risk of erectile dysfunction was about 26 cases per 1,000 men annually, and increased with age, lower education, diabetes, heart disease and hypertension.
Johannes et al. (2000) studied this question.
