Pharmaceutical Options for Treating ED
Medication is often the first line of treatment for erectile dysfunction. These drugs enhance the effects of nitric oxide — a natural chemical your body produces that relaxes muscles in the penis, increasing blood flow and allowing an erection in response to sexual stimulation.
Commonly prescribed medications include:
- Sildenafil (Viagra): Typically taken about an hour before sexual activity.
- Tadalafil (Cialis): Known for its longer duration, it can be taken daily or as needed.
- Vardenafil (Levitra, Staxyn): Another option that can be taken with or without food about an hour before sex.
- Avanafil (Stendra): Known for its fast-acting properties, it can be taken with or without food 15-30 minutes before sex.
These medications are effective for many men but come with potential side effects, such as headaches, facial flushing, or nasal congestion, which are generally mild.
Advanced Non-Pharmacological Treatments
For men who prefer not to use medication or do not find it effective, we offer advanced non-pharmacological treatments that have shown promising results:
- GAINSWave Therapy: This treatment uses high-frequency sound waves to improve blood flow to the penis. It is non-invasive and has been shown to be effective even for men who have not responded to traditional medications.
- P-Shot (Priapus Shot): This innovative treatment involves injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from the patient’s own blood into specific areas of the penis. It is designed to promote tissue growth and enhance blood flow, leading to improved erectile function.
- Vacuum Erection Devices (VEDs): A mechanical way of creating an erection using a vacuum pump. It’s an option for men who prefer a drug-free method.
Psychological Counseling
Recognizing that psychological factors such as stress, anxiety, or depression can often contribute to ED, counseling or therapy can be beneficial. Therapy can help address the psychological barriers to achieving an erection and improve sexual relationships.
