FAQ'S
It is important to remember that erectile dysfunction is a common and treatable problem. Consulting a doctor is the first step to understanding the cause and seeking appropriate treatment options.
Erectile dysfunction (impotence) is a common problem, especially in men over 40. The term covers the complete inability to produce an erection and the inability to maintain erections long enough to have sex. Treatments work by providing a firmer, longer-lasting erection due to increased blood flow to the penis. The medication can start to have an impact slowly and it may take up to four attempts to be effective.
It's best to take the medicine on an empty stomach and about an hour before sexual intercourse. To promote the effectiveness of the treatment, you will need to become sexually aroused with foreplay or other stimuli.
Erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence, is a man's persistent inability to obtain or maintain an erection firm enough to have satisfactory sexual intercourse. It can be caused by physical, psychological factors or a combination of both.
The causes of erectile dysfunction can vary and include health problems such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, smoking, side effects of certain medications, stress, anxiety, depression and psychological factors. Aging is also a common risk factor.
The treatment of erectile dysfunction depends on the underlying cause. Treatment options include oral medication, psychological therapy, hormone replacement therapy, vacuum devices, penile injections, penile prostheses and lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise.
Erectile dysfunction medications are generally safe and effective when used under proper medical supervision. However, they may have side effects, interact with other medications, or not be suitable for everyone. It is essential to talk to a doctor before starting any treatment with these medications.
Preventing erectile dysfunction involves maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including managing risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension and obesity. Quitting smoking, reducing alcohol consumption, managing stress, and maintaining open communication with your partner about sexual problems can also be helpful in prevention.
