There is nothing more discouraging than not achieving what you desire, and erectile dysfunction can hinder the progress of intimacy. Our specialized approach focuses on addressing both the root of the problem and the symptoms to improve your performance.
What Is Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction (ED), commonly referred to as impotence, occurs when individuals are unable to achieve or maintain a penile erection sufficient for satisfying sexual intercourse for both partners. While occasional occurrences of ED are common among adult males, up to 30 million American men experience it regularly. Fortunately, the vast majority of men who seek treatment for ED report experiencing some degree of relief.
Erectile Dysfunction Causes
Previously, physicians often attributed erectile dysfunction to psychological issues or, in the case of older men, to aging. However, contemporary medical understanding has evolved. Although arousal may take longer as one ages, persistent erectile dysfunction warrants medical evaluation. Furthermore, psychological factors typically play a minor role. Urologists now posit that physical conditions predominantly underlie enduring cases of erectile dysfunction in men aged 50 and above.
Erectile dysfunction in older men
Erections primarily rely on the functionality of blood vessels, and in older men, the most prevalent causes of erectile dysfunction (ED) are conditions that impede blood flow to the penis. These conditions often involve arterial hardening (atherosclerosis) and diabetes. Additionally, a malfunctioning vein that allows rapid blood drainage from the penis can also be a contributing factor. Other disorders, hormonal imbalances, and certain medical procedures can also lead to ED.
The intricate blood vessel processes crucial for achieving an erection are regulated by the nervous system. Certain medications have the potential to disrupt the nerve signals necessary for initiating an erection. These medications encompass various categories such as stimulants, sedatives, diuretics, and antihistamines, as well as drugs used to manage high blood pressure, cancer, or depression. However, it’s important never to discontinue medication without consulting your doctor. Furthermore, substances like alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs, such as marijuana, may also exacerbate ED.
Erectile dysfunction in younger men
In younger men, psychological issues often underlie erectile dysfunction (ED). Lack of effective communication with one’s partner or disparities in sexual preferences can precipitate tension and anxiety, contributing to the problem. Additionally, ED may be associated with these factors:
- Depression
- Fatigue
- Stress
- Feeling that you’re not good enough
- Sexual fears
- Rejection by your parents or peers
- Childhood sexual abuse
Erectile Dysfunction Symptoms
The manifestations of erectile dysfunction can differ among individuals. If you’re experiencing ED, you may:
- Be unable to get an erection at all
- Get an erection sometimes
- Have trouble keeping an erection long enough for sex
- Lack of desire for sex
Erectile Dysfunction Diagnosis
When consulting a doctor for symptoms of erectile dysfunction (ED), they will endeavor to determine if there are underlying health conditions contributing to the issue. They will inquire about your medical history, including details about your sexual activity. Possible inquiries may include:
- A physical Test
- Blood and pee tests
- A mental health exam
- An ultrasound.

This was my second visit to Apex Health and this was easily as great as the first! Dr. Sharp is very professional and patient as he does his work. He walked me through each step of the drip and made sure I was very comfortable throughout my IV treatment. I will definitely continue to visit Apex Health for future treatments!
Dr. Sean is amazing. During my 30 minute intake he was attentive and helpful. He asked questions I hadn't thought of and answered all of my questions. My insurance approved the same day, but since there is a Wegovy shortage we decided to go with the compound pharmacy. So far, this process has been painless. Thank you to the excellent service. I look forward to working with you!
Great experience as a first timer. Haven’t been able to lose weight in years and Dr. Sharp has helped me tremendously when I inquired about losing weight. Medication comes with everything you need and is delivered very fast right to my doorstep and no need to go anywhere! Dr. Explains how to do every step. Highly recommended if you’re looking to lose weight. Started in Feb 2023 and so far down 27 pounds.
