How is impotence evaluated?
Rather than simply choosing a pill or penis injection for treatment, our philosophy is to attempt to define the cause of impotence. Each patient’s need is unique and therapy is individualized based on cause, severity, partner, and budget. We begin with a thorough medical history looking for any underlying conditions that might contribute or cause impotence. The initial visit will include a focused physical examination, and when indicated, appropriate blood testing. Specialized testing may include an ultrasound study of penile blood flow, or at-home monitoring of expected nighttime erections.
