Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is more common than most men realize. It’s the ongoing difficulty to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for sexual activity. While an occasional challenge is normal, persistent ED can affect confidence, relationships, and overall well-being.
ED often has more than one cause. At Lite Medical, we look at the whole picture—physical health, lifestyle, and emotional factors.
Circulation issues: Heart disease, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol can restrict blood flow.
Diabetes: Can damage nerves and blood vessels linked to erections.
Hormone imbalances: Low testosterone or thyroid issues may play a role.
Neurological conditions: Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, or spinal injuries can interfere with nerve signals.
Medications: Some prescriptions list ED as a side effect.
Lifestyle: Smoking, alcohol, or inactivity can all contribute.
Stress and anxiety: Worrying about performance can make it worse.
Depression: Low mood can lower desire and function.
Relationship challenges: Tension or poor communication may contribute.
ED shows up in different ways, but common symptoms include:
Trouble getting or keeping an erection
Reduced interest in sex
Anxiety or stress during intimacy
Simple changes can sometimes make a big difference:
Eat a balanced diet rich in whole foods
Exercise regularly to support circulation and energy
Quit smoking and reduce alcohol
Manage stress with mindfulness, yoga, or deep breathing
Get consistent, restorative sleep
When lifestyle changes aren’t enough, we offer proven medical and therapeutic options:
PDE5 inhibitors: Prescription medications that improve blood flow
Hormone therapy: Testosterone replacement if levels are low.
Vacuum devices: Support blood flow naturally
Implants: A surgical option for more severe cases
Counseling: To address stress, anxiety, or relationship concerns
Alternative therapies: Acupuncture or natural supplements, with medical guidance
Every patient receives a personalized plan designed to restore confidence and function.
A private, compassionate discussion about symptoms and goals
Lab work or imaging, if needed, to uncover the root cause
Treatment tailored to your unique needs
Regular follow-ups to adjust care and celebrate progress
Erectile Dysfunction is common, but it doesn’t have to define your life. At Lite Medical, we focus on restoring balance and confidence with treatments backed by science and guided by compassion.
