Notwithstanding, erectile dysfunction is viewed as a huge problem for satisfying sex experience.

 They may be as follow:

  1. Increased blood pressure

Treatments for Erectile dysfunction

Brilliant scientists from all around the world have been working on different treatments for men to improve their erection. These treatments include drug treatments, surgical treatment, and vacuum devices. Therapists have said that changing life into a healthier lifestyle also helps in enhancing erection in men during sex. 

Drugs such as viagra pills (PDE-5) are taken by men 30-60 minutes before sex which helps them in having a larger and longer erection during sex.  

The advancement of technology has designed a device that can mechanically create an erection in men who are not willing to take pills. A vacuum pump is put onto a penis for this purpose hence causing it to erect. However, this method is not spontaneous due to which people prefer other treatments more reliable.

Surgical treatments for impotence include penile implants which are the last choice for helpless men when other treatments fail. Moreover, vascular surgery can also be conducted that has the purpose of fixing the blood vessels that caused erectile dysfunction in the first place. However, these surgeries are done in extreme cases only. 

 

Change in Lifestyle improves sex life too!

As for changing lifestyle, exercise helps in improving the condition without taking any medication. This can be done by regularly working out through kegel exercises. Aerobic also helps in blood circulation and helps in correcting erectile dysfunction.
