Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition with many causes. At Private Men’s Health, we offer a stepwise, evidence-based pathway—lifestyle guidance, oral medications (e.g., sildenafil/tadalafil), device-based therapies, and, when appropriate, penile implants for long-term results. Start with a discreet medical evaluation.
Who benefits from ED treatment?
Men with persistent difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection despite lifestyle changes or pills may be candidates for advanced therapies. After a focused urology consult, we tailor care—from optimized medications to vacuum devices, injections, or a penile implant when a definitive solution is desired.
A clear, stepwise pathway to restore sexual function
ED can be related to vascular, hormonal, neurological, medication-related, or psychological factors. We begin with history, examination, and essential tests, then move through proven options in a structured way to maximize safety, comfort, and outcomes.
- First-line therapy: lifestyle optimization and oral PDE-5 inhibitors (sildenafil, tadalafil) when suitable.
- Device-based options: vacuum erection device or intracavernosal injections for non-responders.
- Penile implants: inflatable or malleable prosthesis for durable, high-satisfaction results.
Inflatable (three-piece) implants provide a natural look and flaccidity via a discreet scrotal pump; malleable (semi-rigid) rods are simple to use and always firm. Choice depends on medical history, manual dexterity, and personal preference—your surgeon will discuss benefits, risks, and recovery.
Our team offers transparent plans, clear pricing, and thorough aftercare. Book an online consultation to review your case, treatment expectations, and the next steps toward regaining confidence.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers for international patients in Antalya/Alanya about erectile dysfunction (ED), treatment pathways, and surgical options.
What is erectile dysfunction (ED)?
ED is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity. If it is recurrent and persistent, it should be considered a problem and evaluated by a urology/andrology specialist for diagnosis and treatment planning.
What causes ED?
Common causes include atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, hormonal issues (e.g., low testosterone), smoking, alcohol, obesity, stress, depression/anxiety, and side effects of certain medications. In many cases, physical and psychological factors act together.
Is ED related to age?
Risk increases with age, but it is not an inevitable part of aging. It can occur in younger men as well. When the underlying cause is identified, treatment is possible at any age. Modern stressors often contribute, too.
Is ED permanent?
No. ED is often treatable. Depending on the cause and individual factors, options range from lifestyle changes and psychological support to oral medications, vacuum devices, injections, and—if ineffective—penile prosthesis surgery.
Can ED be a sign of heart disease?
Yes. ED can be an early warning sign of vascular health problems and may appear before overt cardiovascular disease. Your doctor may recommend a cardiometabolic risk assessment alongside ED care.
Which doctor should I see for ED treatment?
Urologists/andrologists manage ED. Depending on the cause, input from endocrinology, cardiology, or psychiatry may also be helpful.
Is non-drug treatment possible for ED?
Yes. Regular exercise, healthy nutrition, quitting smoking, reducing alcohol, stress management, and weight control can markedly improve erection quality. If insufficient, other treatment options are considered.
Are Viagra-like tablets safe for everyone?
They are generally safe under medical supervision. However, they must not be used with nitrates and can pose risks in low blood pressure or certain heart conditions. Unsupervised, over-the-counter use is not recommended.
Can psychological factors cause ED?
Yes. Performance anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship problems can contribute to ED. Counseling/therapy is beneficial and can be combined with medical treatments.
What is done in advanced or unresponsive cases?
If medications, injections, and other supports are insufficient, penile prosthesis surgery (see penile prosthesis FAQs) can provide a durable solution. A urologist will assess suitability.
