E.D. is both extremely common and immediately treatable. Approximately 52% of men experience some form of E.D. in their lifetime. Lots of men are looking for a solution for Erectile Dysfunction, Premature Ejaculation, and Penis Girth, form, and function. How do you know when you're genuinely experiencing erectile dysfunction?
The basic definition of erectile dysfunction is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for sex. If this occurs frequently, it can stress you, your relationship, or your self-confidence, so seeking help is critical.
For many men, the most challenging part of treating erectile dysfunction (E.D.) is talking about it. Some men may feel reluctant to speak to a healthcare professional about what they are experiencing. There is no reason to be embarrassed. The team at Happy Valley Clinic is very empathetic and will find a solution that works for you.
In many cases, erectile dysfunction may be a sign of an underlying issue, especially problems with your heart, metabolism, or vascular system. Investigating the cause of your E.D. could be the first step to treating your heart disease, diabetes, neurological issues, or other conditions.
If you have diabetes, heart disease, or a similar condition, don't ignore E.D., as it could be a warning sign of other symptoms to come.
Psychological conditions can also play a significant role in causing erectile dysfunction. Some of the most common psychological factors include depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders. Stress may also be a factor, as well as relationship problems.

It's essential to note that occasional difficulty with erections is common and doesn't necessarily indicate erectile dysfunction. However, please get in touch with us if the symptoms persist or become a consistent problem please contact us.
In many cases, men with erectile dysfunction:
In some cases, problems with ejaculation are to blame, such as premature ejaculation or the inability to ejaculate at all.
There are various treatments for E.D., depending on the severity of your condition and the specific cause. The first step of treatment at Happy Valley Clinic is determining what underlying condition is to blame.
If an underlying physical condition is the root cause of your E.D., treatments like focused shockwave therapy or intracavernous injection therapy can be highly effective. The most successful E.D. clinic has trained the team at Happy Valley Clinic in California.
If blood flow isn't to blame, combining treatments, including psychotherapy, with our highly experienced therapist can help you work with your partner to address and solve outstanding challenges. We will provide you with an action plan that can literally change your and your companion's lives.
Focused Shockwave therapy sends acoustic shockwaves into the vascular system within the penile shaft, which triggers a response within the body for the body to send in sequences of amino acids to recover the vascular system, regenerate existing blood vessels, and create new blood vessels (angiogenesis) breaking up plaque. Focused Shockwave Therapy is performed using the Duolith SD1 medical device.
Happy Valley Health Clinic is the only practitioner in Utah currently offering this breakthrough technology. This focused wave therapy improves the underlying causes of erectile dysfunction, including impaired blood vessels and poor blood flow.
Focused Shockwave therapy is safe, non-surgical, and non-invasive. Please visit our Focused Shockwave Therapy page to learn more about this revolutionary treatment.

Red light therapy for erectile dysfunction (E.D.) involves using low-intensity red light to stimulate blood flow to the penis, potentially improving erectile function. When you begin treatment, we may provide you with a red light therapy device.
Vacuum erectile therapy for E.D. involves using a device to create negative pressure around the penis, drawing blood into the erectile tissues to produce an erection. We may provide you with a penis pump when you begin treatment to use at home to promote blood flow to your penis.
Our physician may prescribe E.D. medications in some instances. Still, it's important to note that many of our patients find that medication may no longer be a necessary tool to achieve and maintain an erection after treatment.
Penile implants can be an effective way to treat E.D. in more severe cases. Check out our fantastic blog post all about Penile Implants.
In the beginning, your doctors will discuss your lifestyle with you. Your treatment plans begin with ensuring that your diet and drinking habits are healthy. If you smoke, your doctor will suggest that you stop. Increasing your exercise can also help.
Your doctor will also go over any prescription drugs you are taking. Never stop taking your prescriptions without talking to your doctor, but there may be alternatives available if one of your prescriptions is interfering with your sex life. After you and your doctor have discussed all possible non-invasive options, then it is time to talk about other treatment plans that may be more invasive.
There are drug and hormone therapies, but also there are devices or surgical options. The oral prescription drugs to treat E.D. are called PDE5 inhibitors. These drugs increase penile blood flow. If you have normal nerve function in the penis, these pills will improve normal erectile responses. About 70% of men report having better erections when their treatment plans include these prescription drugs. The prescription would need to be taken about two hours before intercourse.
There are some rare cases when low testosterone levels are the culprit. When testosterone therapy is combined with the PDE5 inhibitors, patients can experience normal erections again. Treatment plans may also include more aggressive physical options such as vacuum erection devices, injection therapies, intraurethral therapy, or surgical treatment for penile implants. A vacuum erection device is a sort of pump that is used to suck blood into the penis.
This results in an erection that can last up to 30 minutes. About 75% of men properly trained with this device have good results. Treatment plans can also focus on injection therapy.
Your doctor's office would provide self-injection lessons. This may sound difficult, but it is effective for about 85% of properly trained patients. However, since the nervous system does not regulate the election, it is possible to have a prolonged orgasm past the climax (Erections lasting between 2-4 hours should be treated in the Emergency Department). Treatment plans your doctor offers may also include intraurethral therapy.
For this kind of therapy, a tiny medicated pill is placed into the urethra. This will allow you to avoid injection therapy, but it does not work quite as well as injections. With this therapy, prolonged erections of 2-4 hours should be treated in the emergency department.
Treatment plans that involve surgery involve the insertion of a penile implant or prosthesis. Of course, these surgeries come with risks, just like any surgery. However, they also have the highest rate of success and satisfaction among all treatment plans. The doctor can offer two different kinds of implants.
Semi-rigid or bendable implants can be bent in the patient's desired direction. The other option is an inflatable implant; two fluid-filled cylinders that are controlled by a pump. This results in a natural feeling for the patient and partner.
As you can see, there are many options when It comes to erectile dysfunction. With all the technology, there is almost no reason to suffer from this condition. It truly affects your self-image, confidence, and esteem.
