Where to go next
ED treatment usually starts with the cause and the least invasive option that fits. The main approaches are lifestyle changes, treating underlying conditions, oral medications such as the PDE5 inhibitors, vacuum erection devices, injections or urethral suppositories, hormone therapy when a deficiency exists, counseling for psychological factors, and surgery for select cases. A clinician matches the option to your health and goals.
