How Can Erectile Dysfunction Be Treated When Viagra Does Not Work?
I have erectile dysfunction, age 65, heart bypass, pacemaker, type 2 diabetes. do not smoke or drink. Viagra does not work. My urologist says that it is possible that when I do achieve en erection with a pump, and attempt insertion, that my penile blood vessels let the blood flow back out of my penis and I lose my erection. Can this be helped?
