Erectile dysfunction (ED), sometimes called impotence, is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection that is sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity. It is a common condition that can affect men of all ages, although it becomes more common with age.

ED can be caused by a combination of physical, psychological and lifestyle factors. Common contributing factors include high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, smoking, stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. In some cases, erectile dysfunction may be an early sign of an underlying health condition that requires medical attention.

The good news is that effective treatments are available. Medicines such as sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis) and vardenafil can help improve blood flow to the penis, making it easier to achieve and maintain an erection when sexually aroused. Different treatments vary in how quickly they work, how long they last and their suitability for individual patients.

At My Private Pharmacist, our online erectile dysfunction service provides discreet access to licensed ED treatments for suitable patients. Complete a short online consultation and our UK prescribing and pharmacy team will review your medical history, current medicines and symptoms before recommending a suitable treatment option.

Despite how common this condition is, most men do not seek help as they find it difficult to talk about and may feel embarrassed. We understand that ED can have a significant impact on a man’s self-esteem and can lead to sexual frustration which can affect your intimate relationships.

Thankfully this condition is treatable and at My Private Pharmacist we offer various licensed medicines for you to choose from. Such approved medicines are safe and effective and work by increasing the blood flow to the penis helping you to achieve and maintain an erection. In order for these medicines to be effective, sexual stimulation is also required.

Although licensed ED medicines work in the same way, they have differences in onset/duration of action, extent of effectiveness and type of possible side effects that may be experienced by each person. So if one treatment does not provide desired effects or causes side-effects, you can try the other available medicines or contact us for advice.  

Seeking help does not have to be hard and My Private Pharmacist removes the social barriers associated with ordering ED treatments, allowing you to order ED medicines online both safely and discreetly for when you might need it.
