Erectile dysfunction is a troublesome condition. It affects millions of men around the world, making it harder for them to have a satisfying sex life. Fortunately, there are many ways to help manage erectile dysfunction and improve intimacy for both you and your partner.
What Causes Erectile Dysfunction?
From obesity to low testosterone, many factors can lead to erectile dysfunction. With that said, there is one underlying cause of ED symptoms. The primary factor behind erectile dysfunction is poor blood flow to the penis. When blood flow to the penis is impaired, it makes it difficult to achieve or maintain an erection.
Regardless of the cause, men who struggle with ED want an effective solution. Erectile dysfunction can be treated in several ways, including through testosterone therapy and penile injections.
Hormone Replacement
Men struggle with testosterone loss as they get older, which can lead to erectile dysfunction. To resolve ED in these cases, you can supplement your natural testosterone levels through injections or oral medications.
VED Treatment
VED stands for “vacuum erection device.” It uses suction power to manually pull blood into the vessels of the penis. This is also known as a penile pump, and it is an effective way to achieve an erection.
Urethral Suppository
Urethral suppositories are tiny pellets inserted into the urethra. They release a drug into the body that stimulates blood flow and draws more blood into the penis.
Penile Injections
Injectable treatments can also be used to increase blood flow to the penis. Men are discovering the potential options of regenerative medicine. These therapies include platelet rich plasma (PRP) or stem cell therapy and contribute to the improvement of erectile function by enhancing the health and function of penile tissues and blood vessels.
