Suggest Treatment For Erectile Dysfunction While On Lexapro

Question: Hey Doc,
My name is xxxxxxx and im 24 yrs old. 6 2 220lbs. average build male. lately ive been having some serious erectyle disfunction issues to the point where Ive needed to take over the counter "stimulants" to help me get an erection and even keep one. Even on the stimulants I struggle to maintain one. I tried taking horny goat weed from a vitamin shoppe and noticed significant improvement. My pcp had me do 2 testostorone and libido tests and one of them two different times i had it done, it came back with lower levels. Can it be possible that my testorone levels are low and that i need some type of treatment. i also forgot to mention that i am on generic lexapro.
thanks

Brief Answer:
You probably have low testosterone and that’s the reason why!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this erectile dysfunction. With low testosterone levels, that’s the most likely explanation. I will say get the supplements going and see how well you respond. I am confident this will work and the problem solved. Unless something else comes up, I will not be going for further aggressive investigations when we already have a possible and probable cause that can be treated easily.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
