Before, treatment of erection problems required vacuum erection devices, penile implants, intracavernosal injections or injections to the base of the penis and intraurethral suppositories – self-injections[2] – invasive methods that sound and look daunting enough to render anything flaccid. After the launch of the first phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE-5i) in 1998, oral treatment was established as first-line treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED), representing a paradigm shift in the diagnosis and treatment of erectile dysfunction.
Revolutionary Treatment for Erectile Dysfunction
Studies have shown that oral medication such as PDE-5i change the approach of treating erectile dysfunction since they have minimized invasive procedures.[3] They grant men convenient and effective methods to overcome impotence. It also helps that they are easy to use. Prescribing these meds depends on a case-to-case basis, considering different factors such as methods of administration, duration of action, cost, adverse effects and precautions. However, using PDE-5i therapy still requires some form of sexual stimulation to have an erection.
A Satisfying Outcome
Today, having erection problems is nothing to be embarrassed about. According to the National Population and Family Development Board of Malaysia,[5] 16% of Malaysian men aged 40 and above or around 448,000 have moderate to complete cases of erectile dysfunction. This number rises to 60% or 1.68 million, should mild cases be included. But the quicker you deal with it, the faster you can get back in the sack. Seeking healthcare professional help and understanding treatment and management options will help you manage erectile dysfunction better. With further lifestyle changes to address other comorbidities of erectile dysfunction, you’ll definitely be back at your best in the bedroom in no time.
