Prescription ED medications can potentially lower blood pressure. If you already have low blood pressure or are being treated for high blood pressure, there is a possibility that ED treatments could lead to hypotension, which is a serious risk. The doctor will be able to advise you on safe treatment options. You may need blood pressure results to acquire a prescription for certain ED medications.
The most compelling new treatments being researched are acoustic wave and low-intensity shockwave therapies (LI-SWT). These treatments both use soundwaves, but the much faster-moving shockwaves appear to be more effective at stimulating blood flow and improving vascular performance in penile tissue.

Adding pelvic floor exercises, or kegel exercises as they are more commonly called, can help to improve erectile dysfunction. To do this, you need to locate your pelvic floor muscles, which can be done by stopping your urination stream midway. When you hold in the urine, you are engaging the right muscles. Contracting these muscles when you aren’t urinating will increase their strength. Contract, hold it for five–10 seconds and then relax. Repeat this about 10 times at least once daily.
Your doctor will do a physical exam and ask you questions about your symptoms. He or she may do a blood or urine test. Your doctor may consider other tests to rule out other conditions.
