What is Impotence/Erectile Dysfunction/ED?

A condition of men's sexual health known as erectile dysfunction is when a man has trouble getting and/or keeping an erection. Men over 40 are most likely to suffer from this condition; However, it is extremely prevalent and affects men of all ages. Although ED itself is not typically regarded as a dangerous or life-threatening situation, the underlying problem and/or symptoms that accompany it may be more serious. Physical and mental conditions that are more serious and/or frustrating may include, among others, cancer, systematic vascular disease, depression, anger, low self-esteem, decreased energy, difficulty sleeping, decreased sex drive, and relational tension.

Who suffers with ED?

Erectile Dysfunction affects men of all ages. It is a common problem that mostly affects men over the age of 40. In situations of arousal, ED occurs when internal systems and external stimulants do not cooperate. A man's brain, hormones, nervous system, cardiovascular system, and other internal processes must all be working properly for him to become aroused. Additionally, these can be thrown off by mental or physical issues.          A man's inability to become aroused can be caused by a number of factors, including anger, stress, frustration, and depression. Because there are so many possible causes, the majority of men will experience ED at some point in their lives.

What is Premature Ejaculation?

Premature ejaculation (PE) is a condition in which a man ejaculates either immediately after or shortly after sexual penetration. This typically indicates that neither the man nor his partner have experienced a great deal of sexual stimulation at that point. PE can lead to a number of negative symptoms, including tension in a relationship, stress, depression, and frustration, as well as a number of other problems for one's mental and physical health. The majority of the time, these symptoms appear following multiple PE episodes; that's when it becomes a real threat to your health. PE is typically not regarded as a health condition to be worried about unless it occurs very rarely; The majority of men will encounter that at some point in their lives.

What Causes Premature Ejaculation?

There are a variety of psychological and biological factors that can result in premature ejaculation. Some possible causes are: hormone and chemical imbalances, certain medications, an injury, erectile dysfunction, stress, anxiety, and stress can all cause erectile dysfunction. If you are experiencing PE, contact or visit Des Cares Men's Clinic to speak with a specialist in men's sexual health and begin evaluating your situation.

Testing testosterone

A simple blood test can determine testosterone levels. There’s a wide range of normal or healthy levels of testosterone circulating in the bloodstream. Normal male testosterone levels range between 280 and 1,100 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL) for adult males, and between 15 and 70 ng/dL for adult females, according to the University of Rochester Medical Center. Ranges can vary among different labs, so it’s important to speak with your doctor about your results.

If an adult male’s testosterone levels are below 300 ng/dL, a doctor may do a workup to determine the cause of low testosterone, according to the American Urological Association. Low testosterone levels could be a sign of pituitary gland problems. The pituitary gland sends a signaling hormone to the testicles to produce more testosterone. A low T test result in an adult man could mean the pituitary gland isn’t working properly. But a young teen with low testosterone levels might be experiencing delayed puberty.

Moderately elevated testosterone levels in men may produce few noticeable symptoms. Boys with higher levels of testosterone may begin puberty earlier. Women with high testosterone may develop masculine features. Abnormally high levels of testosterone could be the result of an adrenal gland disorder, or even cancer of the testes.

High testosterone levels may also occur in less serious conditions. For example, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, which can affect males and females, is a rare but natural cause for elevated testosterone production. If your testosterone levels are extremely high, your doctor may order other tests to find out the cause.

Treatments and Side Effects

ED is a prevalent condition; sadly, it is frequently left untreated. The majority of men are too embarrassed to know that nearly 90% of men with ED can find effective treatment. There are numerous treatment options to choose from. Therefore, if you've tried something before that didn't work, it might be time to look into a different option. At Des Cares Men's Clinic we are dedicated to finding you the best ED treatment. We chose this career path because we want to assist men in overcoming crippling sexual conditions like ED.

Here are some of the treatments we provide or outsource:

• Oral/Sublingual Medications: Increase the penis’s blood flow to allow the penis to become hard and erect. They help a man achieve an erection once stimulated. Examples: Avenafil, Sildenafil, Tadalafil, and Vardenafil. – Potential Side Effects
• Worsening sleep apnea — a potentially serious sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts.
• Causing acne or other skin reactions.
• Stimulating noncancerous growth of the prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia) and growth of existing prostate cancer.
• Enlarging breasts.
• Limiting sperm production or causing testicles to shrink. (can be managed with addition therapy)
• Stimulating too much red blood cell production, which contributes to the increased risk of forming a blood clot. A clot could break loose, travel through your bloodstream and lodge in your lungs, blocking blood flow (pulmonary embolism).
