Medicinal Treatments for Erectile Dysfunction
The most common treatment and often the first step in managing erectile dysfunction is the use of oral medications. These drugs, known as type 5 phosphodiesterase inhibitors (PDE5), include well-known brands such as Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, and Stendra. These medications work by increasing blood flow to the penis, thus facilitating an erection in response to sexual stimulation.
At Kano.care, you can easily obtain a legal prescription for these medications by consulting our specialists through our online platform. Our fast and confidential service ensures access to safe medications, while avoiding the risks associated with counterfeit products often sold online.
Low-Intensity Shockwave Therapy (LI-ESWT)
For patients who do not respond to drug treatments or who are looking for an alternative solution, low-intensity shockwave therapy (LI-ESWT) is a non-invasive option. This treatment stimulates the regeneration of penile tissue and promotes the creation of new blood vessels, thereby improving erectile function in the long term.
This type of therapy is particularly effective for men whose erectile dysfunction is caused by poor blood circulation. Kano.care does not offer these treatments but will guide you if necessary. You can also consult Dr. Sam Ward the medical director of Kano.care
Mechanical Devices: Penis Rings and Vacuum Pump
For men who prefer to avoid medication or invasive treatments, mechanical devices can be an excellent alternative. The penis ring and the vacuum pump are simple tools that can help achieve or maintain an erection. The vacuum pump uses suction to draw blood into the penis, while the penis ring prevents the blood from leaving the penis once an erection is achieved.
These devices are easy to use and represent a safe solution for many men. They are often recommended as a first step before considering more invasive treatments. Kano specialists will give you recommendations based on the evaluation of your condition.
Innovative Injections and Treatments
If drug or mechanical treatments do not yield the expected results, there are other options such as intracavernosal injections, which involve directly injecting substances into the penis to improve erection. These injections are usually performed by the patient themselves at home, after training with a healthcare professional, and in this scenario, Kano guides you towards the appropriate care pathway.
Furthermore, innovative treatments such as PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and Botox injections are also used to stimulate erectile function. PRP is a technique that uses the patient's own blood cells to promote tissue regeneration, while Botox can relax certain penile muscles to facilitate an erection.
Penile Implants: A Surgical Solution
Pour les hommes souffrant de dysfonction érectile sévère et résistante aux autres traitements, la chirurgie d'implant pénien peut être envisagée. Il existe deux types d’implants : les implants semi-rigides et les implants gonflables.
- Semi-rigid implants are always in an erect position, but can be positioned discreetly.
- Les implants gonflables, quant à eux, sont plus sophistiqués et permettent de contrôler le moment où l’érection est obtenue grâce à une pompe implantée dans le scrotum. Ces implants offrent plus de flexibilité et sont généralement préférés par les patients soucieux d'un résultat plus naturel.
At Kano.care, we offer specialized consultations to assess if this option is suitable for your case, and if so, a referral to an in-office consultation is necessary.
A Personalized Approach with Kano.care
The approach of Kano.care is based on a complete customization of treatments. Every man is unique, and it is essential to assess the severity of erectile dysfunction through a thorough diagnosis. We regularly use assessment tools such as the IEF-5 score (International Index of Erectile Function) to determine the best treatment plan.
This simple questionnaire, which you can fill out directly on our platform, helps our specialists understand the nature of your symptoms and to offer a personalized treatment accordingly. You also have the option to request a quick teleconsultation to discuss your options in complete confidentiality.
