\"\"<\/a>Thirty million men in the U.S. and more than 300 million worldwide suffer from erectile dysfunction. The majority of the cases are caused by heart problems and insufficient blood flow, studies show.\u00a0 While millions of men take popular medications like Viagra or Cialis to threat the condition, they don\u2019t work for everyone.<\/p>\n

The new answer<\/strong>
\nMedtronic is now testing a stent that is placed in the penis to help men whose erectile dysfunction is caused by clogged arteries.\u00a0 The study found 68 percent improvement in erectile function after three months in 30 men with an average age of 60 who were implanted with the stents.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe set out to show this could be done and it didn\u2019t hurt people. It was a first-in-man trial and the fact that it was feasible and improved blood flow is amazing. This is the birth of a whole new approach to erectile dysfunction,\u201d Jason Rogers, director of interventional cardiology at the University of California Davis Medical Center in Sacramento said.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It\u2019s the first study to use a stent for erectile dysfunction, typically stents are used to keep blood flowing around the heart.<\/p>\n

The next step<\/strong>
\nMedtronic is now working on its second study with about 350 male patients.\u00a0 While more studies need to be done, Rogers believes it is promising results for men battling sexual problems.<\/p>\n

\u201cAchieving a good erection requires a variety of vascular components to work well, including a good flow of blood to the penis through the arteries,\u201d Rogers said. While drugs like Viagra relax the spongy tissue to allow the blood to enter, \u201cif you don\u2019t have good inflow into the penis, it doesn\u2019t matter how much that tissue relaxes, you don\u2019t have a good erection,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

ED drugs available<\/strong>
\nAs scientists research different ways to treat erectile dysfunction, Viagra and Cialis are both FDA approved to treat the condition.\u00a0 eDrugstore<\/a> sells these medications through a secure online pharmacy.\u00a0 For more information please check out our website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
