Penile erectile dysfunction (ED)

It is recommended that you make lifestyle changes before or at the same time as treatment for ED, especially if you have cardiovascular or metabolic disease (e.g., diabetes, hypertension, etc.). The latest research findings prove that good lifestyle habits (such as quitting smoking, moderate aerobic exercise and regular sex, etc.) are beneficial not only for erectile function, but also for overall health. A. Lifestyle adjustment: Lifestyle adjustment should be the first thing in ED treatment. Increased physical activity, proper nutrition, weight control, and proper supplementation of fatty acids, antioxidants, and calcium can improve vascular function and erectile function. With improved cardiovascular and metabolic system function, the overall health of the patient will also improve. Recent studies have found that the Mediterranean diet (based on fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains and fish, with a small amount of red meat and fine grains) can be used to reduce the risk of heart disease, and cardiovascular disease and ED have a common pathological basis. Second, the underlying disease control: ED is a treatable disease, and part of it can be cured. For patients with clear underlying disease, should be treated for clear causes, such as: cardiovascular disease, diabetes, endocrine abnormalities, depression, etc.. And it should be treated simultaneously with or before ED treatment. It is important to note that some therapeutic drugs may cause ED while treating these underlying diseases, such as certain antihypertensive drugs that cause ED, etc. ED and coronary vascular disease often coexist. Both have common risk factors. Decreased endothelial function is the common pathological basis. Treatment of cardiovascular disease also benefits the treatment of ED, delaying or even restoring erectile function. Treatment of cardiovascular symptoms and stabilization of cardiovascular function should precede treatment of ED. Diabetes is an important risk factor for ED, and control of diabetes can delay the onset of ED. III. The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the following: (1) the patient’s health and well-being, and (2) the patient’s self-confidence and self-esteem. Education or counseling may enable you to restore good sexual function.

Older people can have sex 1-4 times a month according to their health, and young adults can have sex 2-6 times a week according to their own and their partner’s condition. Because of the individual differences, the above frequencies are for reference only. Masturbation, oral sex and other ways are optional.
