While not being able to get or maintain an erection is normal from time to time, a prolonged issue can be a more serious problem like erectile dysfunction. This condition is characterised by a diminished sexual drive and the frequent inability to remain erect enough for sexual intercourse. Erectile dysfunction (ED) is usually related to underlying psychological, hormonal and physical health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and ageing.
Erectile dysfunction is a common disorder among men, especially those who are over the age of 57. In fact, studies show that 30-45% of all men over this age suffer from ED.

To diagnose and treat ED at Invictus Men's Health, we first need to understand each man's sexual, medical and psycho-social history. This information will help our urologists determine the underlying cause, severity and necessary treatment options needed to assist with ED.

We also evaluate the sexual interests, ejaculation, sexual pain and penile curvature of each man to ensure we can effectively treat this condition. Genital examinations with special focus on endocrine, vascular and neurological systems will also be needed to assist with this process.

Additionally, we will conduct blood tests to pinpoint hormonal imbalances that could contribute to ED. Testing for androstenedione, total testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and many other hormones, proteins and chemicals are important in this regard.

Erectile dysfunction management and treatment
Erectile dysfunction can negatively impact a man's emotional wellbeing and sexual health. The condition can also be a symptom of serious underlying medical problems too, which is why it's important to seek treatment.

When erectile dysfunction is caused by psychological issues like stress, anxiety or depression, professional counselling can help rectify the issue. At Invictus, we have certified psychologists and psychiatrists if the need arises. When the condition is a symptom of a hormonal or physical problem, however, you may need medical treatment instead.

Erectile dysfunction can be managed with oral medications, penile/ intracavernosal injections or penile implants if deemed necessary depending on your medical history and what the condition's underlying cause is. Urine tests, blood tests, a physical exam and ultrasound may be required to diagnose your erectile dysfunction before a treatment method is decided.

At Invictus Men's Health Clinic, we offer P-Shot ® therapy and shockwave therapy to treat erectile dysfunction as well. We are the only clinic in South Africa that offers this revolutionary treatment for men.
