If there is anything embarrassing men have to face, it is being unable to sustain an erection. For many, this can be a major problem. They may experience frequent ejaculations or be incapable of having sex with their partners. Luckily, there are solutions. One of the best known being Viagra – a drug that treats erectile dysfunction and allows men to regain their fertility. But is Viagra the only effective treatment for Erectile Dysfunction?

Alternative Treatments

In addition to Viagra, there are several other treatments that also help men with Erectile Dysfunction. One of the more popular and effective treatments is called Cialis.

Unlike Viagra, which is a drug and only acts on the nervous system, Cialis is a tablet and can be used directly to treat erectile dysfunction. In fact, it has been shown to be more effective than Viagra in some studies. The drug also has fewer side effects, which is why many doctors prefer it as first-line treatment. It is not a perfect remedy for erectile dysfunction, however. Many men experience headaches and nausea when taking Cialis. But the benefits often outweigh the drawbacks.

Vitamin E And Tadalafil Combination

Another popular treatment for erectile dysfunction is a combination of vitamin E and tadalafil. Vitamin E is an antioxidant which has been shown to enhance erectile response to stimuli in several studies. Tadalafil is a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor, which is used to treat erectile dysfunction and enhance sexual performance in men. The combination of the two has been shown to give rise to an even more powerful treatment for erectile dysfunction than either of the two compounds separately. The combination of the two has also been shown to have fewer side effects than either one of the compounds separately. This makes it a popular treatment for erectile dysfunction.

Terms Used

In this article, we will discuss the various terms used to describe the various treatments for erectile dysfunction. But first, it is important to note the difference between the terms impotence and erection. According to the American Diabetes Association, impotence refers to “the inability of the penis to become rigid or erect”. On the other hand, an erection is “the physiological response of the penis to sexual stimulation”. Impotence and erection are both conditions that men can experience, but they are not the same thing.

What Is ED?

To start things off, let’s discuss the most common and most accurate way of describing erectile dysfunction. According to the Merck Manual of Manuals, “Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is a disorder in which a male has problems becoming sexually aroused or having an erection.” Essentially, ED prevents a man from having normal erections. It does not necessarily mean that the man is not attracted to his partner or does not want to have sex. It just means that the sex is not as good as he would like it to be. ED can also occur in females, but it is much less common. A female with ED may have trouble reaching orgasm during sex, or she may not even be able to have sex at all due to pain or discomfort. In rare cases, ED can lead to heart disease and kidney failure.

The Main Symptoms Of ED

Here is a list of the most common symptoms of erectile dysfunction:

  • Difficulty becoming sexually aroused
  • A constant need to use the bathroom before, during, or after sex
  • Inability to maintain a hard erection
  • Frequent headaches, dizziness, or fainting spells
  • Aches in the knees, elbows, or back
  • A general feeling of malaise or fatigue
  • Heart palpitations or anxiety
  • Muscle weakness or spasms
  • Changes in vision or hearing

Diagnosis Of ED

Now that you know what symptoms to look out for, let’s discuss how to properly diagnose erectile dysfunction. The most common way is to take the patient’s history and perform a physical examination. During the history taking stage, the physician will probe the patient to find out what is causing the dysfunction. For example, is it hormonal, psychological, or physical? The physician will also want to know how severe the symptoms are, how often they occur, and what makes them better or worse. The last thing a physician wants to do is prescribe a drug for something that is not medical. After the history and physical, the physician may choose to perform certain tests. These tests can help rule out any medical problems and determine the exact nature of the patient’s erectile dysfunction. Sometimes, a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor (PDE-5 inhibitor) test is performed, which can help determine the underlying cause of the dysfunction.

The most important thing to note about erectile dysfunction is that it is not a normal reaction to sexual arousal. Every male should be able to become sexually aroused without it being a problem. The problem is that, for some men, sex becomes a problem. Sometimes, this is due to a physical problem that needs to be treated. Other times, it is due to a psychological problem that needs to be addressed. In either case, it is important to seek help and determine the root of the problem so that it can be cured.
