Viagra Connect & Erectile Dysfunction

VIAGRA connect is a medicine that treats erectile dysfunction (ED) symptoms in men aged 18 years and older. VIAGRA connect works by increasing the blood flow to the penis to help men get and keep an erection that lasts long enough for sex.

VIAGRA connect is clinically proven to treat all three issues of ED:

• Getting an erection

VIAGRA connect can help you:

• Get an erection hard enough for sex
• Maintain an erection during sex

VIAGRA connect will NOT help you:

• If you do not have symptoms of erectile dysfunction
• Get an instant erection
• Get an erection that lasts all night
• Increase your sexual desire or improve your performance

Viagra Connect has enabled over 1 million men to take action!**

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a relatively common medical condition that affects men of all ages. 4.3 million men in the UK experience symptoms,* so don’t worry – if you’re experiencing ED symptoms you are not alone.

Many men ignore their ED symptoms for years, because they are too embarrassed to see a healthcare professional, but the symptoms of ED can be treated in most cases.

What are the symptoms of erectile dysfunction?

Men can experience symptoms in different ways:

• Some men do not get an erection at all
• Some men get an erection, but cannot keep it long enough for sex
• Some men get an erection, but it is not hard enough for sex

For some men with ED, it can be difficult to get or keep an erection every time they try to have sex. For others, symptoms can happen just once in a while.

Erectile dysfunction is generally due to physical causes, although psychological issues and some types of medication can also be a cause of ED.

The main physical cause of ED is not enough blood flowing into the penis, so a man cannot get and keep an erection when he is sexually aroused. This happens because the blood vessels that supply the penis during an erection become blocked or narrow.

Erectile dysfunction can sometimes be caused by different health conditions such as:

• Heart and circulation problems can reduce the flow of blood to the penis (e.g. high blood pressure, high cholesterol)
• Low levels of the male hormone testosterone
• Diabetes
• Injury to or disease of the penis or surrounding areas
• Mental health problems, such as depression and anxiety, or relationship issues
• Surgery to the penis or the surrounding areas (e.g. prostate surgery)
• Lifestyle issues, such as stress, lack of exercise, smoking, alcohol and recreational drug abuse

ED can sometimes be an early warning sign of an underlying health condition, even if you feel healthy.

While not all men with ED will have other health problems, it is always best to talk to a pharmacist or a doctor who can fully assess your health and treat any condition you might have that could be causing ED symptoms.
