7 Benefits Of Penile Implants For Erectile Dysfunction

If a man is having difficulty in the bedroom, he is not likely to talk about it, but he doesn’t have to suffer in silence. There is a safe and effective way to overcome erectile dysfunction with a penile implant. Here are just 7 of the many benefits of penile implants for erectile dysfunction.

It’s A Common Problem

A penile implant can be used when there is a clear medical cause for erectile dysfunction and if the problem is unlikely to resolve naturally or with other medical treatments.

Erectile dysfunction is a problem more common than you may think, and the only answer is not taking a pill every time you want to have sex. A more permanent solution is a penile implant. There are two types of implants, and Louisiana Healthcare Associates Urology Division can recommend which one might be right for you during an appointment at our Covington, LA office.

What makes ED such a common problem is the fact that the causes are quite common.

They include any or any combination of the following issues:

• An injury, such as injury of the brain or spinal cord
• Having diabetes
• A heart condition
• High blood pressure
• High cholesterol
• Smoking
• Excessive alcohol consumption
• Drug use
• Trauma to the genital area
• An operation, such as prostate gland removal

Of course depression and anxiety can lead to ED and then can make it even worse.

A man with ED is not alone!

7 Benefits Of A Penile Implant

There are endless benefits to a penile implant, but we will discuss seven.

A Discreet Solution

Since the implant is completely invisible located inside the penis, no one needs to know.

High Satisfaction Rate

Before making a big decision, it is always helpful to know how satisfied others have been. There is a 90-95% satisfaction rate of men and their partners after having a penile implant.

Safe And Effective

Penile implant surgery has a very low infection rate post-operation. Special antibiotics and techniques are utilized that reduce the possibility of infection.

Long-Lasting Results

Most penile implants last 15 to 20 years. Understand that the implant is a medical device that can break or have problems. This can be corrected by another short procedure.

On-Demand Erections

You can have an on-demand erection in just 15 seconds whenever and however long you want.

Outpatient Procedure

Penile implant surgery takes about one hour to complete, and you can go home afterward. You can resume normal activities in one week, but should wait 6 weeks to have sex.

No Changes To Sexual Enjoyment

Maybe the most important benefit is there are no changes to sensation, ability to have an orgasm, or to ejaculate.
