Heart Disease and Erectile Dysfunction
There are many myths suggesting that men with heart disease can't take medications to treat Erectile Dysfunction (ED). There are even more myths suggesting that these medicines actually cause heart problems. These are just myths. In most cases, men being treated for heart problems can safely take medications for ED. Often, vascular disease (which includes heart disease) is the cause of the Erectile Dysfunction.
However, some men (and women) require nitrate medication to alleviate symptoms of heart disease. Men who are on nitrate medication regularly, have frequent angina (chest pain) or have an unpredictable or frequent need for nitrate medication, cannot take tablets to treat Erectile Dysfunction.

Before jumping right into action though, each man should assess whether he can tolerate the exercise involved with sexual activity.
AT OMH we welcome men with heart disease, and will work with you to determine the safest and most effective treatment for your Erectile Dysfunction.
My wife and I were getting along OK, but we had slipped into a routine of avoiding sex because it was awkward for both of us when I couldn't perform . We just put it down to age and moved on. One day I just decided to look into it further, and let me tell you, don't let anyone tell you that you need to give up sex just because of your age. Our life is much more complete now than it has been in years. Get help today. My wife and I are so glad we did.
Last year, out of nowhere, I couldn't keep an erection. I thought it was just from the stress of final exams and tried to ignore it. But when it happened again I freaked out. I really love my girlfriend so this stressed me out even more. But after talking it over with my doctor and taking some brief treatment, things got right back on track, and now everything is better than ever.
