I would also have to agree, as men age more need ED meds. I use them but a times I don't, just so I can compare the difference in erection quality.If I understood it right, in his interview, Dr Ranjith Ramasamy says that TRT may only improve mild ED. TRT alone does not work.
Is it why viagra/cialis is a big topic at this forum?
If low testosterone is the sole cause of ED it will help significantly.
The thing is though, most guys posting on here have other medical conditions or medications contributing to ED that they aren't mentioning. They attribute their ED to low test and expect TRT to fix everything.
I've seen a few people come in on various forums and say they are suffering from ED and start a topic trying to solve their issues since TRT didn't, then later in the thread they mention their on SSRI's for anxiety, extremely irritating!
