Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com
This is Dr. Swarnava dattagupta answering your query.
I understand your concern.
The problem you are having is called as Erectile dysfunction. It is not very uncommon problem encountered, rather these days many people come to seek for help and treatment. I suggest my patients the following-
First of all, improve lifestyle.
Get healthy food to eat, more fresh fruits and vegetables, less fatty food and junk.
Avoid alcohol, smoking etc.
Lose weight if you are obese.
Increase daily exercise; cycling, swimming etc are very got exercise to get a good metabolism.
Reduce stress and anxiety. These are very potent inducers or associated factors for erectile dysfunction.
Now, lets get to the commonly used drugs.
Sildenafil and Tadalafil are most commonly used drugs for erectile dysfunction.
Now-a-days, injectable preparations like Alprostadil are available and are very effective. Also, testosterone therapy is advised in some.
You can consult your doctor for prescription of the above. You can start with sildenafil or tadalafil and if none of them seems to work, Penis vacuum pump can be used. It has given good results in cases nonresponsive to medications. Also, surgical intervention might be needed in some cases.
You should start with any of the drugs alongwith the lifestyle modification and later do as required.
Hope i have answered your question.
If you have any further questions i will be happy to help.
Regards
