Vacuum-Assisted Erection Device
Intraurethral Suppository
Intraurethral (or transurethral) suppositories are a non-surgical option for men with erectile dysfunction (ED). An applicator is used to place a pellet containing the medication alprostadil into the urethra which then dissolves and increases blood flow to the penis, creating an erection. MUSE® (Medicated Urethral Suppository for Erection) is currently the only intraurethral suppository approved by the FDA. MUSE® is available in 4 dosage strengths: 125 mcg, 250 mcg, 500 mcg, and 1,000 mcg. MUSE® is available in various strengths. Together, you and your doctor will determine the dose that is right for you.
Penile Implant
Penile implants are a permanent surgical option for men with erectile dysfunction (ED). Penile implants are surgically-placed medical devices that produce natural-looking and “- feeling” erections. There are two main types of penile implants: inflatable and semirigid (or malleable). Each type of penile implant comes in a variety of lengths and girths, work in different ways, and have their own pros and cons.
Oral PDE-5 Inhibitors
Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors are the only FDA approved oral medications for the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction (ED). PDE-5 inhibitors are readily available with a prescription at retail pharmacies. These medications include sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), vardenafil (Levitra), and avanafil (Stendra).
Penile Traction Therapy
Peyronie's Disease Treatment
Penile Traction Therapy
RestoreX is an adjustable penile traction device used to reduce curvature from Peyronie’s disease and/or prevent lost penile length from urological procedures that result in E.D. Peyronie’s disease develops from repeated injury to the penis, usually as a result of sexual or physical activity. RestoreX is an FDA approved device with clinical trials reinforcing its effectiveness for Peyronie’s disease and lost penile length post-prostatectomy.
