At Hormn, we offer medical treatments for erectile dysfunction (ED) using medications from a class called PDE5 inhibitors. These medications work by improving blood flow to the penis, helping you get and maintain an erection when sexually aroused.

Types of Treatment

Our doctors may prescribe:

  • Short-acting, on-demand PDE5 inhibitors: Taken 30–60 minutes before sexual activity. These are suitable for occasional use.

  • Daily, long-acting PDE5 inhibitors: Taken once per day, maintaining a steady level in your system to allow for more spontaneity.

  • On-demand, long-acting PDE5 inhibitors: Taken prior to sexual activity but with a longer duration of action (up to 36 hours), offering a longer window for intimacy.

How They Work

These medications work by blocking the PDE5 enzyme, which increases blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. They do not increase libido but help you respond physically when aroused.

Why Some Men Need Treatment

Erectile issues are common and can happen at any age due to:

  • Poor blood flow

  • Low testosterone

  • Nerve sensitivity issues

  • Psychological stress, anxiety, or performance pressure

  • Use of medications, alcohol, or smoking

  • Chronic conditions like diabetes or cardiovascular disease

Benefits of Treatment

  • Stronger, more reliable erections

  • Increased confidence during intimacy

  • Less performance anxiety

  • Improved sexual satisfaction

  • Greater spontaneity and quality of life

Erectile dysfunction is nothing to be ashamed of. Our doctors are experienced in treating thousands of men with ED and can personalise your treatment plan based on your needs, goals, and health.
