Erectile Dysfunction Treatments

In a nutshell, erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence, is the inability to maintain an erection. Symptoms can include trouble getting or keeping an erection as well as reduced sexual desire.

These medicines relax the blood vessels that supply the penis, allowing more blood flow to the area to help you maintain a firmer erection during sexual intercourse. The medicine will not increase your desire for sex.

The main causes could be due to stress, tiredness, anxiety or drinking too much alcohol. If it happens often, it could be due to physical or emotional problems.

Health conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, neurological disorders, high cholesterol or narrowing of the blood vessels may contribute to erectile dysfunction. The main issue is not enough blood flow to the penis. Other issues include low levels of the male hormone testosterone, injury or nerve damage to the penis or surrounding area and surgery to the penis or surrounding area (e.g. prostate surgery). Some medications can also cause erectile dysfunction as a side effect, particularly if they affect hormone levels like testosterone.

Erectile dysfunction is more likely to be related to an emotional problem if you experience symptoms only occasionally. For example, when you get an erection in the mornings but not during sexual activity.

You should speak to your doctor if it keeps happening, so they can investigate further.

If you have a problem getting or keeping an erection hard enough for you to have sex with your partner, you may have erectile dysfunction. The condition is common in men over 40 years of age, although it can affect men of all ages. Symptoms may differ from person to person. Some men do not get an erection at all, others may be able to get an erection but can’t maintain it long enough for sex and some men get an erection, but it is not hard enough for sex.

Making lifestyle changes can help with erectile dysfunction, such as:

• Lose weight if you are overweight
• Stop smoking, as it damages blood vessels
• Don’t drink more than 14 units of alcohol per week
• Eat a healthy, balanced diet
• Exercise regularly
• Try to reduce your stress levels

These erectile dysfunction treatments should not be used in patients with high blood pressure. If you do not know your blood pressure you can have it tested at a number of places, including:

• Your local GP surgery
• Some pharmacies
• Some workplaces
• At home
• At an NHS Health Check appointment offered to adults in England aged 40-74
