What is erectile dysfunction?

Erectile dysfunction, commonly referred to as ED, is a common problem affecting middle-aged and older men. It’s a condition that diminishes the ability to have strong or long-lasting erections. More than 50 percent of men between ages 40 and 70 struggle with ED. If you want to restore sexual function, see the New Vitality Centers providers for an evaluation.

What are the common causes of erectile dysfunction?

The most common cause of ED is aging. Other contributing factors include:

• Genetics
• Medical conditions
• Hormone imbalance
• Some medications
• Ongoing stress

Relationship challenges with your partner and carrying excess body weight may also increase your chance of developing ED.

How does my provider diagnose erectile dysfunction?

Your New Vitality Centers specialist can diagnose sexual dysfunction after reviewing your medical history and asking questions about your symptoms. They may also complete a physical exam and order blood tests, as well as imaging procedures if needed, to determine the best ED treatment for your individualized needs.

How is erectile dysfunction treated?

The New Vitality Centers providers use various methods to reduce ED. They may recommend medically supervised weight loss, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, or shockwave therapy.

Shockwave treatment is a painless, noninvasive method for enhancing blood flow and regenerating new cells naturally. It’s 80% effective for treating mild to moderate ED.

Some of the benefits associated with choosing shockwave therapy or other ED treatments at New Vitality Centers include improved circulation and stronger, longer-lasting erections. Shockwave therapy is painless, and there’s no need for anesthesia. You can administer the shockwaves yourself using six easy, 10-minute treatment sessions.

New Vitality Centers offers a MoreNova device, which has an FDA Class 111 rating. This  requires pre-market approval, as well as clinical documentation of effectiveness and safety. Its linear shockwave treatments have considerable research showing proven results, and New Vitality Centers provides just one in three of these machines available in the state of Florida.

You might need more than one ED treatment to ensure superior erections and the best quality of life possible, especially in the bedroom.
