Erectile dysfunction (ED) drugs are more readily available than ever before, and in general, men have gotten past any stigma about needing them. Yet many men still approach ED drugs the wrong way.
Men feel their sex life is not good and see an ED drug as an easy, quick-fix solution. But more times than not, there are underlying issues at play that a pill can't help.
FYI on ED
While men might have other sexual issues, such as low libido, premature ejaculation, and the inability to achieve orgasm, ED pertains explicitly to not being able to get or maintain an erection. ED drugs address only that issue, by improving blood flow into the penis and keeping the blood in place to maintain an erection.
There are four ED drugs currently available: sildenafil (Viagra), avanafil (Stendra), tadalafil (Cialis), and vardenafil (Levitra). At least one ED drug works in about 70% of men, but results vary among individuals. Men who have nerves or arteries damaged by prostate surgery, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease often do not respond as strongly to ED drugs.
