If you experience ED after prostate cancer treatment, you’re not doomed to suffer from it forever. The team at Male Method can help restore your erections so you can regain confidence in the bedroom.
At The Male Method, the team uses various ED treatments to restore erections, such as:
Cialis, Viagra, and Levitra may be a first-line option for ED after undergoing prostate cancer treatment. These medications can provide a noninvasive way for men to achieve erections. However, if oral ED medications aren’t effective for you, the team offers other noninvasive treatments.
If Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra fail, and your testosterone levels are normal, the team at Male Method may recommend intracorporeal injections. They'll show you how to inject liquid medication using an auto applicator into the base of your penis to improve blood flow and achieve firm erections.
Another innovative, noninvasive way to treat ED after prostate cancer is called extracorporeal shock wave therapy. During this safe and effective procedure, the team uses a probe to apply sound wave technology to the penis. Doing so can improve blood flow to the penis and enhance erections.
