For many men who have erectile dysfunction, their inability to get an erection may not be the only reason they use the excuse “Not tonight, honey.” A new study from Taiwan reveals that men who have been diagnosed with erectile dysfunction are 63% more likely to also get a diagnosis of migraine than men without erection problems.

Only about 5% of men experience migraine, according to the Migraine Trust, while the incidence of erectile dysfunction is higher and depends on age, affecting about 5% of men younger than 40 and between 15% and 25% of those 65 and older. This new study is believed to be the first to show a relationship between migraine and impotence.
