If you have been experiencing erection issues, speak to your doctor about the available treatments. There are several FDA-approved medications used to treat erection issues: Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, Staxyn, and Stendra. All five medications work by relaxing the muscles in the penis, which enhances blood flow. These drugs typically work well for most men, whether your erection issues are caused by physical, psychological, or situational factors.

Don’t be discouraged if the first medication you try doesn’t work as well as you would like. Each medication works slightly differently, so experiences vary. Your doctor can help you choose an appropriate medication based on your current health status and medical history.

Some men find that lifestyle changes can reduce the frequency of erection issues. If you’ve been having frequent erection problems, try reducing your alcohol and tobacco consumption. It also helps to exercise regularly, get plenty of sleep, and eat a balanced diet.
