  • Title: Attitudes and experiences: qualitative perspectives on erectile dysfunction from the female partner.
    Author: O'Connor EJ, McCabe MP, Conaglen HM, Conaglen JP.
    Journal: J Health Psychol; 2012 Jan; 17(1):3-13. PubMed ID: 21586642.
    Abstract:
    This study explored the woman's experience of her partner's erectile dysfunction (ED) focusing particularly on sexual experiences, relationship satisfaction, and communication. One hundred women completed a semi-structured interview, providing information about how ED impacted her relationship with her partner. For some women, there was a sense of hopelessness and frustration surrounding their sex lives, while for others, her partner's ED had led to efforts towards increasing non-physical intimacy and sexual communication. These findings demonstrate the importance of the relationship, including communication between the partners, in a women's experience of her partners' ED.
