Erectile dysfunction
An erection is a prerequisite for a man's sexuality. Without an erection, sexual intercourse is simply not possible. However, the erect penis does not function according to an "on/off" principle, as it is not uncommon for men to have an erection that is too flaccid or does not last long enough to enjoy sex. Erectile dysfunction is widespread in the male population and affects not only older men, but also younger men. Almost 10 per cent of men under the age of 30 report occasional erection problems. Among men aged between 50 and 60, every second man suffers from erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction can therefore be regarded as a "common male disease".

WHAT PROBLEMS DO MEN COMPLAIN ABOUT?
Problem 1: The penis doesn't get really hard!
The first problem that men notice is that the penis doesn't always get really hard. A flaccid erect penis in the morning is not so noticeable. But when it comes to sexual intercourse, men often realise that the corpus cavernosum is not well supplied with blood and the penis is too flaccid to enjoy sex.
Problem 2: The penis goes flaccid too early!
If the penis becomes flaccid during sexual intercourse, sexual intercourse cannot be completed. Patients report that the penis initially becomes hard, but then becomes "flaccid" during intercourse. An orgasm is then often not possible or only half-heartedly possible.
Problem 3: Ejaculation (orgasm) comes too early or too late!
Many men also complain about the problem that orgasm (which is associated with ejaculation in men) occurs too early, too late or not at all. Premature orgasm is also referred to as premature ejaculation or ejaculatio praecox. Both problems can have different causes and can be improved in different ways.
OUR CONCEPT FOR IMPROVING ERECTIONS.
As a first step, you will receive an electronic questionnaire with a few questions about yourself and your problems. Based on this questionnaire, we will draw up a diagnosis and treatment proposal for you.
As part of an initial examination, your hormone status (testosterone, oestradiol and other hormones) will be determined in order to rule out an endocrinological cause. If necessary, hormone levels that are too low, e.g. testosterone, are then raised.
In the second step, the therapies that can lead to an improvement in erection are determined.
These include the following therapies:
- P-Shot® or P-Shot® Pro.
- Erection-enhancing infusion therapies
- Shock wave therapy (shock wave treatment)
- Therapy with phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors
- Therapy with prostaglandins for injection
It is not possible to generalise which treatments in which combination are useful for you to improve your erection and this must be decided as part of the joint treatment.
