Blood Flow

An erection is hydraulics. Anything that stiffens arteries (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, being very overweight) makes it harder to fill. ED can be the first warning of heart disease, which is why we take it seriously and check labs.

Nerves and Hormones

Diabetes, spine problems, prostate surgery and some neurological conditions affect the nerves. Low testosterone lowers desire and can soften erections. Thyroid problems can too.

Medications

Some blood pressure pills, antidepressants (especially SSRIs), antihistamines and hair-loss medication occasionally contribute. Do not stop a medication on your own; tell the provider.

The Mental Side

Performance anxiety, stress, depression and relationship strain can cause ED on their own or stack on top of a physical cause. A tell: if you have firm morning erections but struggle with a partner, the plumbing works and the mind is in the way.

What We Do

A free video consultation, labs at your home (testosterone, blood sugar, lipids, thyroid), and the ED program with sildenafil or tadalafil at $199 a month. If low testosterone is the driver, TRT or enclomiphene at $199. Every prescription at Zen IV Spa is written by a licensed provider under our medical director after a free video consultation. Medication ships to your door anywhere in New York or New Jersey, and a nurse can come to your home for labs or a first dose.

Common Questions

Is ED in my 20s normal?+

Common, and usually anxiety-driven or lifestyle-driven. It is very treatable.

Can ED be cured?+

Often the cause can be fixed (blood pressure, weight, anxiety). Medication bridges the gap and sometimes rebuilds confidence enough to stop.

Does porn cause ED?+

Heavy use can condition arousal to a screen and make partnered sex harder. A break often helps.
