Consult your doctor. They can assess your specific needs and recommend the best course of action, considering your overall health and any potential drug interactions.
Non-Prescription Options
Lifestyle changes often improve erectile dysfunction (ED). Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress management techniques can significantly impact sexual health. Quitting smoking is crucial. Weight loss is beneficial for many men with ED. Your doctor can provide tailored advice.
Alternative Medications
Several other medications treat ED. These include Tadalafil (Cialis), Vardenafil (Levitra), and Avanafil (Stendra). Each has its own properties regarding duration of effect and potential side effects. Your physician will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each to determine the best fit for you.
Other Treatment Approaches
Vacuum erection devices and penile injections are options for some men. Penile implants are a surgical solution for severe ED. Discuss these less common approaches with your doctor to understand their suitability for your individual circumstances. They’re not always suitable as first-line treatments.
Finding Reliable Information
Health Canada’s website and reputable medical sources provide accurate details on ED treatments. Always verify information found online with your doctor before making any decisions about your health. Be wary of unverified online pharmacies.
Next Steps
Schedule an appointment with your physician to discuss your concerns. Open communication about your sexual health is key to finding the right treatment.
Important Considerations
Always obtain prescriptions from a licensed healthcare professional. Counterfeit medications can be dangerous. Never self-treat. Understand the potential side effects of any medication before using it.
