SIGNS / SYMPTOMS
Medications for Sexual Wellness:
-
Tadalafil (Cialis):
Tadalafil is a medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It works by increasing blood flow to the penis, allowing for a firmer and longer-lasting erection. Tadalafil can be taken as needed or on a daily basis, depending on your needs.
-
Sildenafil (Viagra):
Sildenafil is another medication used to treat ED. Like tadalafil, it works by increasing blood flow to the penis. Sildenafil is typically taken as needed, about 30 minutes to 1 hour before sexual activity.
-
Tri-Mix:
Tri-Mix is a combination of three medications – papaverine, phentolamine, and alprostadil – that is injected into the side of the penis to treat ED. Tri-Mix works by relaxing the blood vessels and increasing blood flow to the penis, resulting in an erection.
-
Oxytocin:
Oxytocin is often referred to as the "love hormone" because it plays a role in social bonding and sexual reproduction. In the context of sexual wellness, oxytocin may be used to enhance feelings of intimacy and connection.
-
PT-141 (Bremelanotide):
PT-141 is a peptide that is thought to improve sexual arousal and desire by activating melanocortin receptors in the brain. It may be used to treat hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in both men and women.
