Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction is a medical condition affecting more than 30 million men worldwide. Erectile dysfunction is characterized by the consistent inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse.

Erectile dysfunction affects men of all ages but is more common with increasing age. Various factors contribute to the development of erectile dysfunction, where the risk of development is high following prostatectomy, but also conditions like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hormonal imbalances increase the risk.

Erectile dysfunction impacts both physical health, emotional well-being and relationships, which highlight the importance of addressing both the physical and psychological aspects when treating erectile dysfunction.

Currently no curative treatment is available for erectile dysfunction.

To meet this need, we are developing the Blue Cell therapy.

Current treatments available

Oral Medications

Drugs such as sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), vardenafil (Levitra), and avanafil (Stendra) are prescribed for erectile dysfunction by enhancing blood flow to the penis. They should be used under medical supervision, considering the individual’s health and other medications. Hormone replacement therapy can aid men with low testosterone levels in improving erectile function.

Penile Injections

Alprostadil, a medication, can be injected directly into the penis to stimulate an erection before intercourse. This method is effective for many men, but it may be intimidating for some.

Vacuum Erection Devices

Vacuum erection devices (VEDs) create a vacuum around the penis, drawing blood into the erectile tissues to produce an erection. A constriction ring is then applied at the base of the penis to maintain the erection.

Penile Implant

For men who do not respond to other treatments, a penile implant may be considered. There are inflatable and malleable (semi-rigid) implants that can be surgically implanted to allow for erections when desired.

Lifestyle Change

Quitting smoking: Smoking can restrict blood flow, which can contribute to erectile dysfunction.

Reducing alcohol consumption: Excessive alcohol can impair sexual function.

Regular exercise: Physical activity can improve blood flow and overall health, which may help with erectile dysfunction.

Healthy diet: Eating a balanced diet can contribute to better overall health and vascular function.

Alternative Therapies

Some men explore alternative or complementary treatments, such as shockwave therapy, acupuncture, herbal remedies, or supplements. However, the efficacy and safety of these treatments vary, and they should be used with caution and under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

It is crucial to consult a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause of erectile dysfunction and discuss the most appropriate treatment options. The appropriate treatment for erectile dysfunction will be tailored to the specific situation, taking into account health, preferences, and any contra indications to individual treatments.
