You used to look forward to moments of intimacy. But lately, things have changed. Maybe you’ve noticed that your erections aren’t as firm as they used to be—or they don’t happen at all. Perhaps the stress of trying to perform is starting to weigh heavily on your mind and your relationship. These changes can feel frustrating, confusing, and even isolating.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) affects millions of men, and it’s nothing to be ashamed of. At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, we understand how complex ED can be. We offer a wide range of cutting-edge treatments to restore your confidence, improve your sexual health, and help you regain control over your body and your life. But first, let’s explore how you can deal with ED.
Open up and talk about it
The first step in dealing with ED is often the hardest: acknowledging it. Erectile dysfunction isn’t just a physical issue—it has emotional and psychological impacts too. Men often internalize their struggles, which can lead to anxiety, depression, or relationship strain. That’s why it’s crucial to be open with yourself, your partner, and your doctor.
By discussing your concerns honestly, you create space for understanding and support. Communication reduces stress, builds trust with your partner, and enables your healthcare provider to tailor the right treatment plan for your unique needs. Don’t suffer in silence.
Address underlying health conditions
In most cases, erectile dysfunction is linked to physical issues such as diabetes, high blood pressure, peripheral vascular disease, obesity, or hormonal imbalances. If left untreated, these conditions can affect blood flow and nerve function, which are critical for achieving and maintaining erections.
Dealing with ED often begins by managing these underlying health problems. A comprehensive medical evaluation can help identify the root cause of your symptoms. At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, our providers can evaluate overall wellness, recommend lifestyle adjustments, and work to correct any internal imbalances that may be contributing to ED.
Try hormone replacement therapy
Low testosterone levels are a common but often overlooked cause of erectile dysfunction. As men age, natural testosterone production can decline, leading to fatigue, low libido, weight gain, and poor sexual performance.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) can restore hormone levels to a healthy range, improve sexual desire, and help improve erectile function. Genesis Lifestyle Medicine offers personalized TRT programs for men based on detailed lab work and symptom assessments. When your hormones are in balance, you feel more like yourself—and that includes your performance in the bedroom.
Take ED medications or TriMix
For many men, oral ED medications such as Viagra (sildenafil), Cialis (tadalafil), or Levitra (vardenafil) are effective first-line treatments. These drugs improve blood flow to the penis and make it easier to get and maintain an erection in response to sexual stimulation.
However, when pills don’t work or aren’t appropriate due to medical conditions, TriMix injections offer a powerful alternative. TriMix is a customized combination of medications that are injected directly into the penis, and it can produce reliable, firm erections within minutes. The effects can last up to an hour or more, offering spontaneity and confidence when you need it most.
Consider minimally invasive ED treatments
If you’re looking for long-lasting improvements without daily pills or surgery, several advanced treatment options are available at Genesis Lifestyle Medicine. These minimally invasive therapies target the root causes of ED and promote natural regeneration over time.
P-Shot (Priapus Shot)
The P-Shot uses your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) extracted from your blood and injects it into targeted areas of the penis. This promotes the growth of new blood vessels, enhances circulation, and can increase sensitivity and firmness. Many men report stronger, more sustainable erections and improved sexual performance with continued treatments.
P-Toxin (Priapus Toxin)
Priapus Toxin is a groundbreaking treatment that uses a specialized formulation of botulinum toxin (similar to Botox) injected into the penile tissue. This treatment helps relax the smooth muscles and increases blood flow, improving erectile function. Unlike oral medications, P-Toxin works at the source and can be effective for men who haven’t responded to other therapies.
GAINSWave
GAINSWave is a non-invasive therapy that uses high-frequency acoustic waves to break up microplaque in the blood vessels and stimulate the growth of new ones. This rejuvenates blood flow and supports natural erectile function. GAINSWave is painless, drug-free, and has a high success rate, especially for men with vascular-related ED.
