is treated with a stepped approach: lifestyle and addressing underlying disease, first-line oral phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5-Is), then local mechanical or injectable therapies, and final...
Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is not a proven treatment for erectile dysfunction and can cause harm if misused; ingesting it delivers a high sodium load that can raise blood pressure and trigger me...

Erectile problems while taking ADHD medication are a recognized and treatable issue: stimulant drugs (methylphenidate, amphetamines) are associated with higher rates of erectile dysfunction and altere...
( like sildenafil, tadalafil and vardenafil) have well‑documented side‑effect profiles and decades of safety data from clinical trials and pharmacovigilance, but they carry known cardiovascular and dr...
There are no LiSWT–specific randomized‑trial subgroup results in the provided reporting, so any statement about which patients definitively derive the greatest randomized‑trial benefit from low‑intens...
Viral claims that ingesting baking soda delivers rapid relief for erectile dysfunction lack credible clinical evidence and can cause real harm such as metabolic alkalosis, high sodium load, and worsen...
Randomized-trial evidence does not establish that erectile dysfunction () treatments reliably shorten the post‑ejaculatory refractory period in older men; the clearest randomized signal comes from a s...
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors ( commonly delay ejaculation, blunt orgasm intensity or cause anorgasmia in many men, and those effects can sometimes persist after stopping the drug (post‑SSRI...
Randomized trials exist for each modality—PDE5 inhibitors (PDE5i), vacuum erection devices (VED), and intracavernosal injections (ICI)—and several randomized studies and systematic reviews report bene...
Penile implants generally do not impair the ability to orgasm or ejaculate, and in some cases can restore orgasmic function when the cause was psychogenic rather than neurologic or systemic disease . ...

Supplements marketed as “herbal” or “natural” for sexual performance are frequently found to contain undeclared prescription PDE‑5 inhibitors (like sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil) or unapproved ana...
Clinical trials and meta-analyses show that oral L‑arginine—an amino acid precursor to nitric oxide—has produced modest but statistically significant improvements in erectile function in men with mild...
