ED Supplements or ED Injections: Which Is Better?
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) affects over half the men in the UK. With a statistic like this, you’d expect conversations to be more open around this subject.
But sadly, even in an age where openness about all health matters is growing, some aspects are still shrouded in shame and embarrassment.
Looking for an effective treatment to cure ED can end up feeling more like a covert operation, with hidden search windows and hushed conversations with your Dr. But here at Elite Aesthetics, we take intimate health very seriously and don’t want anyone to feel ashamed or embarrassed in seeking information and help.
In fact, we have been increasing the types of treatments we offer to help overcome erectile dysfunction while also ensuring men feel comfortable and able to talk about their intimate health concerns.
In this blog, we compare ED treatments, including P-Tox, the revolutionary ED supplement exclusive to us, to help you understand your options.
What Is Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction is the inability to get and keep an erection that’s sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse. It’s the most common sexual problem that men report to their doctors.
ED might affect you occasionally, or you may find yourself frequently dealing with the issue.
The main symptom is an inability to get an erection or maintain a firm erection for intercourse. You could have trouble getting an erection, keeping an erection, or experiencing reduced sexual desire.
It happens most often when blood flow in the penis is limited, or the nerves are harmed. One of the reasons this can occur is as a side effect of an illness or medication.
Causes can be varied from person to person, but the most common include:
- Age
- High blood pressure
- High blood sugar
- Cardiovascular
- Diabetes
- High cholesterol
- Smoking
- Drug use
- Alcohol consumption
- Obesity
- Lack of exercise
- Peronie’s Disease
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Relationship conflicts
- Stress
ED Medication
The most well-known treatment for ED is medication that can be taken orally.
Your doctor can prescribe any of the following, and many treatments are available to buy over the counter too.
Sildenafil
This tablet comes in 20mg tablets that start to work within 30 minutes of taking it and last up to 4 hours. This medication has been under intense trials with high levels of success; however, there are side effects associated with it, such as allergic reactions. It is also not recommended for people suffering from cardiovascular issues.
Tadalafil
This medication works by increasing the blood flow to the penis. Doctors also prescribe this drug to treat high blood pressure in the lungs and enlargement of the prostate.
This is one of the longest-lasting treatments, with effects lasting up to 36 hours. It is suitable for long-term use, too, because the dosage can be taken at lower levels.
Although there are benefits to taking ED medication, they are not right for everyone. The potential side effects are a drawback for many, as is taking strong medication long term.
ED Supplements
After working with many, many patients who are dealing with erectile dysfunction, Dr Shirin wanted to find a more natural treatment option that boosted all-around physical wellness at the same time as helping men regain their sexual virility.
P-Tox is a natural ED supplement similar to a vitamin tablet formulated specifically for men. ED supplements have been carefully formulated over many years by intimate health doctor Dr Shirin, and they are designed to be taken daily to help by:
- Boosting testosterone
- Improving blood flow
- Enhancing libido
- Strengthening erections
The dosage will vary from person to person, and Dr Shrin will carefully prescribe your tablets based on a thorough health care check and your desired results.
As a general rule, you can expect to take the following: 2-4 tablets for mild ED and general maintenance and 6-8 tablets for cardiovascular issues, diabetes, and severe ED and later reducing the dosage down.
The combination of the ingredients used in these supplements can help with a variety of healthcare issues, such as ED, diabetes, and cardiovascular issues.
P-Tox is very effective at helping with a variety of different healthcare concerns. These daily ED supplements are more effective the longer you take them and will also help to improve your overall sexual virility long-term.
These supplements are easy to take and provide benefits to your overall health – with no side effects to worry about!
ED Injections
The Priapus Shot, commonly referred to as the P-Shot, is a pioneering treatment used to treat erectile dysfunction issues such as the inability to get or maintain an erection.
This treatment uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections to repair damaged tissue and promote penile tissue growth. Medical professionals have successfully used PRP treatments to repair damaged muscles and nerves for many years.
Experts found that when using the same process, PRP injections can successfully combat erectile problems. This is because PRP contains cell-regenerating growth factors essential for the treatment of ED.
The procedure works by drawing a small amount of your blood and then spinning it at a high frequency within a centrifuge. This separates the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) ready to be used in the treatment area.
Your doctor will inject the PRP directly into your penis, and although this might sound uncomfortable, the whole procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so no pain is experienced.
The effects of this treatment can last up to 18 months before another treatment will be required. It is a quick and painless procedure that treats ED effectively without relying on taking medication for extended periods.
At Elite Aesthetics, we achieve an 84.2% success rate with our highly refined injection techniques. Some of our patients have even reported an increase in penis size, both in girth and length.
So, Which Is Better?
ED supplements could be the answer if standard medication isn’t working for you or you’re fed up with managing unwelcome side effects. You might also be drawn to these tablets because you’re looking for a more natural treatment.
But how do you choose between ED supplements and ED injections?
A lot is down to personal choice, perhaps the idea of having your penis injected is not for you, and you would rather stick to a daily tablet. If this is the case for you, then choosing the ED supplement is probably the best choice.
However, depending on the severity of your symptoms and your lifestyle, ED supplements might not work for you.
If you’re suffering from ED as a side effect of Peyronie’s Disease, for example, then the P-Tox supplement won’t work for you. Your doctor would likely recommend the P-Shot over P-Tox because of the high success rate amongst our patients at the clinic with the PRP treatment.
Some men, however, combine both treatments as a means to take full control of their health and bodies, and if this is something that is of interest to you, you can discuss it at your consultation.
