At Eliv8 MD, we offer PRP injections as a safe, non-invasive treatment option for men suffering from erectile dysfunction (ED) in Colorado.
While occasional trouble getting or keeping an erection isn’t necessarily a cause for concern, it can cause stress, affect your self-confidence and contribute to relationship problems when it becomes a more common occurrence. Additionally, problems with erectile dysfunction may also be a sign of an underlying health condition that needs treatment and a risk factor for heart disease.
If you’re concerned about erectile dysfunction, we encourage you to reach out to consult with our expert team of medical professionals at Eliv8 MD — even if you’re embarrassed. Sometimes, treating an underlying condition is enough to reverse erectile dysfunction. In other cases, medications or other direct treatments might be needed.
Our team is invested in helping our patients to determine the underlying causes of what can often be a complex, multifaceted problem for many men.
Why It's Important to Seek Help for Erectile Dysfunction in Colorado
Erectile Dysfunction is a health issue that should never be ignored. For many men, erectile dysfunction can point to a hormonal deficiency that requires attention. Many men suffering from erectile dysfunction also suffer from symptoms like low energy, reduced muscle mass, depression, mood issues, fatigue and reduced muscle mass. There may be a holistic issue under the surface that requires correction through hormonal therapy, supplementation, nutritional therapies or lifestyle management.
How Is Erectile Dysfunction Diagnosed?
Treatments for erectile dysfunction have come so far in recent years. Many men still try to treat erectile dysfunction “at home” by ordering products over the Internet. Unfortunately, these products typically aren’t vetted for things like efficacy and safety. They also don’t do anything to help men identify the underlying causes for erectile dysfunction. At Eliv8 MD, we begin with a consultation that allows us to help you identify potential medical, situational or psychological sources of erectile dysfunction. A protocol for properly diagnosing erectile dysfunction often includes:
- A physical examination that looks for anomalies.
- Testing of nerve sensitivity.
- Blood tests to look for signs of low testosterone levels, diabetes, heart disease and other underlying factors linked with erectile dysfunction.
- Urine testing/urinalysis.
- Ultrasound tests to check the supply of blood to the penis.
- Screening for depression.
The most important thing for patients to remember is that erectile dysfunction is not necessarily just a “sexual” issue. In many cases, it is a symptom of a larger health issue. However, some patients are able to rule out other risk factors to focus solely on utilizing techniques that target performance.
How Is Erectile Dysfunction Treated?
In some cases, balancing hormones using hormone therapies and injections can help to get the body back in balance. Testosterone replacement therapy is a common treatment for men who are experiencing erectile dysfunction and low sex drive due to diminished testosterone levels. Men can also utilize a variety of prescription medications designed to treat erectile dysfunction. This includes well-known drugs like Viagra, Levitra and Cialis that correct erectile dysfunction by restoring blood flow.
