Do not take sildenafil if you are also using a nitrate drug for chest pain or heart problems. This includes nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate, and isosorbide mononitrate. Nitrates are also found in some recreational drugs such as amyl nitrate or nitrite ("poppers"). Taking sildenafil with a nitrate medicine can cause a sudden and serious decrease in blood pressure.
Certain oral medications can be used to relax the penis and allow for proper blood flow when sexually aroused.
Nearly 95% of men with erectile dysfunction can obtain an erection sufficient for sexual satisfaction with a vacuum constriction device.

Virtually all men of all ages and with all types of erectile dysfunction can have successful intercourse with a vacuum constriction device.

Yohimbe root is a very strong extract that can put too much pressure on your heart if not used properly. If you decide you want to try yohimbe, be sure to consult with your doctor before beginning a regimen of use. There have been multiple studies that showed men with erectile dysfunction are more likely to have low levels of DHEA. In 2009, 40 men with ED participated in a study in which half of the subjects received 50 mg DHEA, and the other half received a placebo. The participants took the DHEA supplements once a day for six months. Those receiving the DHEA were found to be more likely to achieve and maintain an erection.
3. L-arginine ? This is a naturally occurring amino acid which makes nitric oxide, allowing blood vessels to relax and support sustained erections in men. Significant improvement in men experiencing ED was accomplished when they ingested about 5 grams of L-arginine supplement. Combined with a plant supplement called "pycnogenol" which is derived from tree bark, nearly complete ED was restored to about 80% after two months and to 92.5% after three months.
