A word from our doctors

What is erectile dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction is defined as the persistent or recurring inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse. Erectile problems, sometimes referred to by inappropriate terms such as 'impotence,' 'failure,' or 'soft erection,' are very common and affect approximately 1 in 3 men over 40 in France, according to a study published by Inserm. Although they are more common with age, they can affect men of all ages.
How to treat erectile dysfunction?
Several solutions are available. Lifestyle changes, such as better nutrition, quitting smoking, or regular physical activity, can help improve the situation. However, medications like sildenafil and tadalafil are among the most widely used for their proven effectiveness. These medications work by increasing blood flow to the penis to facilitate an erection in response to sexual stimulation. These treatments require a medical consultation and a prescription issued by a doctor to ensure their safety and proper use.
What are the causes of erectile dysfunction?
The causes of erectile dysfunction are multiple and can include physical problems such as diabetes, hypertension, or cardiovascular disorders, as well as lifestyle factors like smoking, alcohol, or lack of physical activity. Psychological causes, including stress, anxiety, or relationship problems, also play an important role.

PATIENT INFORMATION
Frequently asked questions about erectile dysfunction
What is erectile dysfunction (ED)?
Erectile dysfunction is the persistent or recurrent inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse. It can be occasional or chronic and may have physical, psychological, or combined causes.
Is it normal to have erection problems at my age?
Occasional issues can occur at any age and are not necessarily concerning. However, their frequency increases with age. After 40, around 40% of men experience it regularly. A medical consultation can help identify the causes and propose a suitable treatment, which may be temporary or regular depending on the identified causes.
What are the main treatments for erectile dysfunction?
Treatments include medications like Viagra, Cialis, or Levitra (or their generic versions Sildenafil, Tadalafil), behavioral therapies, Kegel exercises, and lifestyle adjustments. The choice depends on specific causes and requires a medical prescription to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Are natural solutions effective?
A healthy lifestyle, regular physical activity, stress management, and some dietary supplements can help. However, these approaches are not always sufficient, especially if ED is linked to an underlying medical issue.
Is it dangerous to buy medications online without a prescription?
Yes, it’s risky. Many medications sold on unregulated websites are counterfeit and may contain harmful substances. It’s essential to consult a doctor for a prescription and purchase medications from a licensed pharmacy.
When should I see a doctor for erectile dysfunction?
If problems persist for several months, affect your confidence or relationships, or if you have other symptoms like pain or unusual fatigue, consult a doctor promptly. It could reveal an underlying health issue such as diabetes or cardiovascular disease.
Is erectile dysfunction a sign of a more serious health problem?
Yes, sometimes. Erectile dysfunction can be an early symptom of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, hypertension, or hormonal imbalances. Consulting a doctor helps detect and treat potential underlying conditions.
Can stress and anxiety cause erectile dysfunction?
Absolutely. Stress, performance anxiety, or emotional issues can inhibit the erectile response. Managing stress or consulting a therapist can help overcome these difficulties.
Is erectile dysfunction reversible?
In many cases, yes. Depending on the cause, lifestyle changes, medications, or specific therapies can restore erectile function. Early intervention increases the chances of success.
What tests might the doctor prescribe to diagnose erectile dysfunction?
The doctor may request blood tests to evaluate hormone levels, check cardiovascular health, and rule out conditions like diabetes. A physical examination, psychological tests, or a penile ultrasound may also be necessary.
