About

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION (ED)

Erectile Dysfunction (ED), also referred to as impotence, is the inability to attain or maintain an erection of the penis that is firm enough for penetration during sexual intercourse. The treatment and management of erectile dysfunction may involve medication, psychological counseling, lifestyle changes, or surgery.

Medical treatments available for erectile dysfunction may include oral pills, urethral inserts, and/or injections. The most commonly used medications in treating erectile dysfunction are phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE-5), which relax the arteries of the penis and allow it to fill with blood, resulting in an erection.
