What is erectile dysfunction (ED)?

Erectile Dysfunction (ED) refers to the inability to sustain an erection adequate for fulfilling sexual activity.

The process of achieving an erection is intricate, involving the coordination of your brain, hormones, emotions, nerves, muscles, and blood vessels. When any of these elements fails to function harmoniously, it can result in the inability to achieve an erection.

You should consult a doctor if:

  2. Difficulty with erections causes significant distress or disrupts relationships.
  3. Other sexual issues, such as premature or delayed ejaculation, are experienced.
  4. Underlying health conditions, like diabetes or heart disease, are present.
  5. Additional symptoms are associated with your erectile dysfunction.

  1. Counseling: Recommended for psychological factors like anxiety or stress.
  2. Medication: Common ED prescription pills in Canada, such as Cialis [tadalafil], Viagra [sildenafil], Levitra [vardenafil], or injections may be prescribed.
  3. Vacuum Devices: These devices improve penile firmness by enhancing blood flow.
  4. Surgery: Vascular reconstruction surgery addresses cases of restricted blood flow to the penis.
