A fresh look at Erectile Dysfunction Treatment

Erectile dysfunction is caused from a lack of blood entering the penis, resulting in an inability to achieve an erection. A 2011medical study conducted at the University of Rochester Medical Center concludes that positive lifestyle changes can both prevent and treat erectile dysfunction. Alarmingly, this study confirms the link between erectile dysfunction and heart disease. However, head clinical researcher for the study, Dr. Stephen Kopecky, sees this association as an opportunity for both men and GPs; he hopes this discovery will motivate the former to make lifestyle changes to improve both their coronary and sexual health, while he hopes the latter will send patients with erectile dysfunction symptoms to cardiologists.

Erectile Dysfunction Treatment:

While typical erectile dysfunction treatment for severe erectile dysfunction includes oral phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitor therapies (i.e. medications), this study suggests that lifestyle changes can be very effective at improving the sexual health of men experiencing mild erectile dysfunction. The study advocates natural remedies for erectile dysfunction, which include having a balanced diet, quitting smoking and exercising. Dr. Stephen Kopecky stresses the latter, stating that “exercising for 20-30 minutes, five times a week has a huge effect.” The study found that these aforementioned positive lifestyle changes can improve a man’s erectile dysfunction score by up to 2.7 points (as measured by the International Index of Erective Function 5).

Erectile Dysfunction Psychology:

Positive lifestyle changes will not only positively affect a man’s sexual performance and coronary health, they will also benefit a man’s mental health. Mental health is often overlooked; however, it is intrinsically tied to a man’s sexual performance and negatively affected by erectile dysfunction disorder. Thus, these positive lifestyle changes will improve the overall well being (coronary, sexual, and psychological) of a man, giving more incentive for a man to make these changes.

Erectile Dysfunction Medications:

While natural remedies for erectile dysfunction may work for mild erectile dysfunction, the study still recommends using PDE-5s for severe erectile dysfunction (medication can improve a man’s Index of Erectile Function Score by up to 10 points). Thus, if a man is unable to achieve and maintain an erection, in spite of lifestyle changes, there are many highly affordable and effective medications available, such as Viagra or Cialis. To order Viagra or buy Cialis you should visit an online pharmacy.

Caverject

Filed under: erectile dysfunction — Tags: Caverject, erectile dysfunction, impotence, side effects of Caverject — Ashlynn @ 11:37 am

This medicine is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, commonly called impotence. It works by relaxing certain muscles in the penis and widening blood vessels, which increases the blood flow to the penis and helps to cause an erection. When the effect of the drug wears off, blood flow returns to normal and the erection disappears.

Before using Caverject, tell your health care provider about any of the following: if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine; if you are taking blood thinners; if you have stomach problems; if you have peptic ulcers; if you have any other medical condition like liver or kidney function impairment or heart problems.

What special warning(s) should I be aware of when taking Caverject?

Development of any unusual deformity of the penis while using this medicine is a signal to stop taking the injections and inform your health care provider.
Small amounts of bleeding at the injection site can increase the risk of transmission of blood-borne diseases such as HIV.
Use caution while driving or operating any machinery as Caverject may cause dizziness or drowsiness.
Caverject does not protect against the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.

Before using Caverject inform your doctor:

if you have blood problems, bone marrow problems or other conditions that may increase your risk for a prolonged, painful erection
if you have a penile implant, deformed penis, or certain other penile problems
if you have any other physical reason that you should not have sexual intercourse
if you have inflammation or infection of the penis, kidney problems, urinary problems, or a history of prolonged or painful erections
if you use other medicine for erectile problems
if you have a blood-borne disease (eg, HIV, hepatitis)

Side effects of Caverject

Most severe: Abnormal vision, back pain, bruising at the injection site, cough, dizziness, flu symptoms, headache, heart attack, high blood pressure, infection, inflamed or enlarged prostate, injuries/fractures/abrasions/lacerations/dislocations, leg pain, nasal congestion, pain, redness, sinus inflammation, skin disorders.

Most common: Blood-filled swelling at the site of injection, disorder of the penis (such as discoloration of the head, strange feeling, tearing of the skin), hardened tissue in the penis, pain in the penis, prolonged erection, upper respiratory infection.

Other: Abnormal ejaculation, bleeding at the urethra, blood in the urine, dizziness, dry mouth, extreme dilation of the pupils, fainting, fluid retention at the injection site, frequent or urgent urination, hemorrhage at the injection site, impaired urination, inflammation, irritation, itching, lack of sensation, leg cramps, low blood pressure, nausea, numbness, painful erection, pelvic pain, profuse sweating, rash on the penis, redness, sensitivity, swelling at the injection site, swelling of the head of the penis, swelling of the scrotum, testicular pain, tightness of the foreskin, warmth, weakness, yeast infection.

Erectile Dysfunction – Cialis

Filed under: cialis,erectile dysfunction — Tags: cialis, cialis side effects, medication for erectile dysfunction — Ashlynn @ 8:48 am

Cialis is a prescription medication used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction. It is clinically proven to work up to 36 hours and work in some men as fast as 30 minutes. Cialis may not be for everyone. Tell your doctor about your medical conditions and what medications you’re taking, and ask if you’re healthy enough for sexual activity.

Although Cialis is not a cure for erectile dysfunction studies have shown that it can improve:

The ability to get an erection
The ability to keep an erection for successful sexual intercourse
The ability to complete sexual intercourse
Confidence in the ability to get and keep an erection
Erection hardness and satisfaction with hardness
Satisfaction with sexual intercourse

What is Erectile Dysfunction?

Erectile dysfunction occurs when a man is unable to get an erection that’s hard enough for sexual intercourse. He may have difficulty keeping an erection until the end of sexual intercourse. It’s not uncommon for men to have erection problems every once in a while, but with erectile dysfunction, problems happen again and again.

For a man to achieve an erection that is hard enough for sexual intercourse, a series of events must occur in the body. Sexual stimulation triggers the brain to send nerve messages to the penis. This signals blood to flow into the penis, which causes the penis to get hard. Blood stays trapped in the penis until sexual activity is completed. Disturding one of these events can cause erectile dysfunction.

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction

Possible Physical Causes Include:

High blood pressure
Diabetes
High blood cholesterol
Nerve diseases
Injuries or surgery to the pelvic area
Low hormone levels
Possible side effect of medicine
Lifestyle factors

Possible Psychological Causes Include:

Depression
Stress at work, at home, or in social life
Anxiety about sexual performance
Relationship problems

Side Effects of Cialis

Common side effects are:

Headache
Upset stomach
Back pain
Muscle aches
Flushing
Stuffy or runny nose

Cialis side effects usually go away after a few hours. As with any ED (erectile dysfunction) tablet, in the rare event of priapism (an erection lasting more than four hours), seek immediate medical help to avoid long-term injury.

***If you think you may have erectile dysfunction tell your doctor, as it may be an early warning sign of other health conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, or hypothyroidism.
