Brief Answer:
The only option is to put Penile Implant

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .You are facing problem of Erectile Dysfunction since many years and have been taking Intra Cavernosal injection of Alprostadil .

Have you ever tired oral drugs like Cialis ?

I would suggest you to try taking 5 mg of Cialis every day and 20 mg of Cialis one hour before sex on the day of planned sexual activity .

This works equaly good to have adequate hard erection to have enjoyable sex .

If it fails to give you satisfactory erection only permanent option is to undergo surgery of Penile Prosthesis .This is covered under insurance in US.
Discuss the option with your Urologist .

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions ,I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.
