Treatment for Erectile Dysfunction
When considering lifestyle changes as an approach to correct erectile dysfunction, consideration of habits that may be contribute to the condition need to be addressed. These include:
- Decreasing or limiting the consumption of alcohol
- Dietary changes to reduce the intake of fat and cholesterol
- Eliminating the use of tobacco and substance abuse
- Losing weight
- Exercising regularly
If the above treatments are unsuccessful in managing erectile dysfunction and psychological causes are ruled out, your physician may recommend penile implant surgery. The implant, called a penile prosthesis, is contained within the body. Considerations for choosing the appropriate implant include medical condition, lifestyle, personal preference and cost. As with all surgeries, there are associated risks that include pain, infection and other complications.
