Most men experience occasional erectile dysfunction (ED) at some time in their lives as a result of fatigue, stress or excessive alcohol consumption. However, when it occurs consistently or for a long period of time, causing significant distress to the sufferer or to his relationship, then it starts to be considered a serious problem.

Here are some treatment options starting with self help:

Share your concerns - it is particularly important that you communicate with your partner by being open and honest and asking for their support. The lines of communication need to be opened.
Start by placing less emphasis on intercourse and more on developing other forms of sexual intimacy. Spending time cuddling, kissing, licking and massaging can still be pleasurable and will help keep you emotionally close to your partner.

Sex therapy - many men could benefit from a course of counseling or therapy. Sex therapy is particularly necessary if the ED has psychological causes which cannot actually be cured with physical treatments. Sex therapy can help to restore self esteem and sexual confidence. Involve your partner in sex therapy too.

Practice a healthy lifestyle by cutting down on the drinking and quitting the smoking. Take moderate-intensity exercise - brisk walking for example - for half an hour on most days of the week. Eat a balanced diet rich in fruit and vegetables and low in fat. Reduce the stresses in your life.

In recent years, pharmaceutical companies have been developing ED treatments as they have realized the extent of the problem. There are now 3 different brands of tablets known as phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitors. Cialis and Levitra work in a similar way to Viagra (the first drug of this type) but take effect more quickly. A 4th drug Uprima comes as a tablet to be dissolved under the tongue and it brings about an erection in about 20 minutes. Prior to such research, men who sought help and medical advice from their doctor were prescribed such treatments as testosterone or penile injections or even penile implants.

Traditional natural healing products for the treatment of ED were not always readily available in the western world. Now you can chose a natural rather than a man-made solution for ED as a safe alternative. With a natural healing product, you retain the power to control your erection as opposed to some oral and man-made drugs which induce an erection for a longer period of time but do not give you the control. A natural healing product will help boost your self esteem and confidence by allowing you to get an erection and to maintain it for as long as desired.

Many men used to feel embarrassed when they sought medical advice for an ED problem but fortunately, the problem has been discussed so openly in the media in recent years, that they are starting to feel more confident about getting help.
