Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction How common is it?

Erectile dysfunction is a common problem. One in five men older than 20 years of age experience erectile dysfunction and this number increases with age.

A man is considered to have erectile dysfunction if he regularly finds it difficult getting or keeping a firm enough erection to be able to have sex, or if it interferes with other sexual activity.

Everyday I see men in my clinic who are embarrassed that their penis isn’t performing like he used to. What always amazes me is that the same are not at all surprised that their knee, shoulder or other body parts are not working as well as they used too but for some reason they expect sexual function to remain unchanged as they age.

Despite this problem occurring so often, research shows only 1/3 of men talk to a health practitioner about it. This issue is easy to treat so don't suffer in silence.

ED

What’s to know about erectile dysfunction?

Causes can be physical or psychological.

Organic causes are usually the result of an underlying medical condition affecting the blood vessels or nerves supplying the penis. Numerous prescription drugs, alcohol, recreational drugs and smoking can all cause ED (erectile dysfunction).

When a penis owner loses their erection once, they often develop performance anxiety and the worry causes the problem to keep occurring. The important thing to note is you are not alone and this problem is treatable. 

ED can also be a warning sign that you have cardiovascular (heart) disease, so seeking help for this could save your life.

Causes

Normal erectile function can be affected by any of the following:

  • Psychological/mental health
  • Hormonal
  • Vascular
  • Neurological
  • Lifestyle such as alcohol, drugs, weight gain

The following list summarises many of the most common physical causes of ED

Physical causes account for 90 percent of ED cases.

  • Age – 1 in 3 men over 50 years of age have ED, the prevalence increases with age
  • Heart disease and narrowing of blood vessels, high blood pressure, high cholesterol
  • Diabetes
  • Obesity and metabolic syndrome
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Hormonal disorders including thyroid conditions and testosterone deficiency
  • Structural or anatomical disorder of the penis, such as Peyronies disease.
  • Smoking, alcoholism, and substance abuse, including cocaine use
  • Treatments for prostate cancer / disease
  • Surgical complications
  • Injuries in the pelvic area or spinal cord
  • Radiation therapy to the pelvic region

Treatments include:

  • Drug treatments – drugs called PDE-5 (phosphodiesterase-5) inhibitors, hormone therapy
  • Injection therapy
  • Vacuum devices
  • Surgical treatments
  • Counselling

There are solutions!

The good news is that there are many treatments for ED, and most men will find a solution that works for them.

Work with me

I have developed these online programs to enable you to get assistance in the privacy of your own home and in your own time.

Through many years of consulting on these problems, I found that I was often explaining the same thing to people and my waiting list was months long. I then developed these online programs will teach you what the problem is and provide ways to assist you in finding solutions.

Once you have completed the program you can also book an appointment with me online. My current waitlist for clinic appointments is 12 weeks however program purchasers get to jump the cue. Once you have enrolled in the program you will be sent a link to book an online consult and a discount code.

Program purchases pay a discounted rate of $150 for a 45 min consult, you are welcome to book consult without purchasing program however this will be at the standard consultation rate of $280.

The advantage of doing the program first is all the generic information that you need to get started is covered. The later private consultation if required will be about the details specific to your situation and needs.
