Erectile dysfunction – Sildenafil
Understanding and Treating ED with Sildenafil
Erectile dysfunction (ED) affects approximately 1 in 5 men over the age of 20 in the UK. It can stem from physical issues like cardiovascular problems, hormonal imbalances, or medication side effects, as well as psychological factors such as stress or relationship problems. ED can lead to feelings of frustration, embarrassment, and strain on relationships. Understanding the underlying causes of ED is crucial for effective treatment.
