Objectives: To examine whether there is an association between smoking and erectile dysfunction in a representative sample of Australian men.Design: Secondary analysis of cross-sectional survey data from the Australian Study of Health and Relationships.Participants: 8367 Australian men aged 16-59 years.Main outcome measures: Erectile dysfunction was identified in men who reported having had trouble keeping an erection when they wanted to, a problem which persisted for at least one month over the previous year.

More than a quarter (27.2%) of respondents were current smokers, with 20.9% smoking 20 cigarettes per day.
