Erectile Dysfunction Treatment
The treatment for erectile dysfunction depends on the cause of your erectile dysfunction.
Many treatment options are available, depending upon the cause of ED.
Psychological erection problems:
A psychologist or counsellor is what you may need. Counsellors may help you focus on stress reduction, less focus on performance, and with an emphasis on intimacy.
Hormone Problems:
Medication may be used to treat erectile difficulties caused by hormone problems. If ED is a side effect of medication, an alternative drug may be prescribed. Never reduce or change any medication without the permission of your physician. In diabetic men, diet, medication and exercise are essential, as poor blood sugar control may increase the severity of the erectile dysfunction.Damage or diminished blood flow:
ED due to permanent damage of the blood vessels or nerves can also be treated. Options include vacuum devices, injection therapy, oral medication, vascular surgery or penile implants.
