Impotence Treatments and Their Side Effects |
|
There are many different Impotence treatments available today, approved by the FDA. Impotence treatments include ED pumps or penis pumps, penile implants, rerouting surgery and medications or injections. Impotence or erectile dysfunction affects 1 in 8 men under the age of 50 and 1 in 5 men over the age of 50 every year. Impotence or Erectile dysfunction is considered the male body’s inability to get or keep an erection for a prolonged period of time. Impotence treatments such as the ED pumps or penis pumps are the first offered for those with ED. Pumps as an Impotence treatment offer no serious side effects like medications or surgery, have no drug interactions and offer immediate results. Impotence treatments like medications have drug interactions, unwanted side effects and must be taken hours before sexual encounters can be experienced. Medications require a monthly refill cost and can be quite expensive. Pumps are only paid for one time and you have the continued use for as long as you own it, making it the most affordable Impotence treatment option. The penile implant Impotence treatment has many of the same unwanted risks as surgery. Surgeries always have the possibility of complications, and the penile implants are no different. Both surgeries and penile implants are costly and can take years to pay off even with insurance. Scarring and complications are always a possibility with either case. Both surgery and penile implants are a last resort when doctors offer Impotence treatment options, as they are both costly and dangerous, and permanent. Impotence treatment plans can be made with your doctor based on your current and past medical history and conditions. Pumps are only the first option given, and are not the only option available to you. Remember ED is caused by underlying conditions, so it is best to treat the other condition in order to get relief. |
