Why this site exists

Erectile dysfunction affects a large share of men over 40, and most of them wait years before mentioning it to anyone. In that silence, two things happen. Treatable conditions go untreated. And an enormous, largely unregulated market fills the gap with supplements, shockwave clinics and subscription services, much of it sold on claims the evidence does not support.

We built ED Treatment Guides to be the resource we could not find: one that explains what each treatment actually does, what the research shows, what it should cost, and — crucially — when erectile dysfunction is telling you something more important than what it appears to be telling you.

What we do

  • Publish 105 in-depth guides covering every mainstream ED treatment, its common causes, and the practical questions that come with both.
  • Cite primary sources — clinical guidelines, regulator publications and peer-reviewed research — and link them so you can check our work.
  • Review the telehealth services people actually use, against a published rubric.
  • Build free tools that run in your browser and store nothing.
  • Say plainly when a popular treatment is not supported by good evidence, even when saying so costs us money.

What we are not

This matters more than the previous section, so we will be direct about it.

  • We are not a healthcare provider. We do not diagnose, treat or prescribe, and nothing here creates a clinician–patient relationship.
  • We are not a pharmacy and we do not sell medication.
  • We are not a substitute for a clinician who can examine you, measure your blood pressure and take your blood.
  • We are not neutral about money. We earn affiliate commissions, and we tell you exactly where and how — see how we make money.

Who writes this

Articles are written and maintained by the ED Treatment Guides editorial team and reviewed against the standards set out in our editorial policy. Pages covering clinical topics carry a review date and a link to our medical review process.

If you are a licensed clinician interested in reviewing content for us, we would like to hear from you: editorial@edtreatmentguides.com.

How we handle the obvious conflict of interest

A site that earns commissions from telehealth companies has an incentive to recommend telehealth companies. Pretending otherwise would be insulting. Instead, here is what we do about it:

Non-paying options stay in the line-up

Our highest-scoring recommendation — get a prescription from your own clinician and fill it at a retail pharmacy with a free discount card — pays us nothing at all. It is there because it is frequently the best option, and because a disclosure claiming we cover options that pay us nothing has to actually be true.

Scores follow a published rubric

Every service is assessed against the same five weighted criteria, and each review shows the breakdown so you can see where the number came from.

Disclosure appears before the link, not after

FTC guidance requires disclosures to be clear, conspicuous and placed where a reader sees them before clicking. Ours sit near the top of every page carrying a paid link — not buried in the footer.

Commercial relationships never change clinical guidance

Nobody pays for coverage, placement or a better score, and no partner sees an article before publication.
