ED is Treatable in Nearly Every Man

Excellence-Urology_Care-banner2At New York Urology Specialists, our urologists are specially trained in the evaluation and treatment of erectile dysfunction.  We understand the challenges that ED creates for our patients, their relationships, and their self-esteem.  We help you find a treatment for erectile dysfunction that fits your needs, lifestyle, and your preferences.

Urologists are doctors specializing in the treatment of men with erectile dysfunction. By the virtue of our experience and skill, we are able to offer an effective treatment option for nearly every man who desires an effective treatment for ED.  We offer medical and surgical treatment for erectile dysfunction.

We Treat Some of the Most Complex ED Problems Including:

Penile Injection Treatment for Erectile Dysfunction: What You Need to Know

When oral pills such as Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra do not work well, injectable medications can be used to directly deliver medications that improve blood flow to the penis and allow men to get excellent erections.  These medications are self-injected directly into the penis at home, typically 10-15 minutes before sex.

Penile injection therapy results in high satisfaction rates among men for whom oral medications do not work well.

The part of the penis that creates erections is called “corpus cavernosum”. Injectable medications used in the treatment of ED are injected directly into the part of the penis where erections occur.

Benefits of Penile Injections For Treatment of Erectile Dysfunction.

Erectile dysfunction treatment with injections offers a number of benefits to men.  Penis injections allow many men to obtain excellent erection quality (hardness) when oral pills and supplements do not work as well.  Using injection therapy for erectile dysfunction can also allow men to maintain erections for a prolonged period of time without losing it even after ejaculation.  This is helpful to men with premature ejaculation.

Many men are worried about the pain of self-injecting medications in the penis. Fortunately, using tiny needles, penile injections are nearly painless.

Treatment with Penis Injection Therapy

At New York Urology Specialists, we offer therapy with penile injection therapy as one of the many options for men who experience difficulty obtaining erections that are sufficient for intercourse.  Our procedure for men who are interested in penile injections for ED:

  • Schedule an initial appointment for evaluation; necessary tests and blood work are ordered
  • Penile Doppler ultrasound is performed to evaluate the cause of ED and a test injection is given
  • Another test injection may be necessary to select a correct dose of medications.
  • If a patient wants to use penile injections at home for treatment of ED, the patient can order penile injections to be used at home.  The patient will be taught how to self-inject correctly.

Our experienced urologists have treated hundreds of men with penile injection therapy.

Penis Injections for Treatment for Weak Erections

A few different medications are available to choose from that can be injected into the penis to produce a good erection.  We use our extensive experience and patient preferences to determine the most appropriate medication for each patient.

Medications used for penile injections act on the blood vessels to improve blood flow to the penis.  Injectable medications used for ED treatment include in order of potency:

Each medication (Prostaglandin, Bimix, Trimix, Quadmix) is available in multiple concentrations (strengths); medications obtained from different pharmacies are not interchangeable.

Getting Penile Injections

Medications used for penile injections require a prescription. At New York Urology Specialists we require a full evaluation before penile injections are prescribed.  It is important that you fully understand all options available for the treatment of ED as well as the risks and benefits of penile injection therapy for impotence.

Before we prescribe penile injections, the correct medication and the correct dose need to be selected. In general, when choosing medication our goal is to select the medication and dose to provide an excellent erection that does not last more than 1 hour (to avoid the risk of priapism).

Retail pharmacies such as CVS, Walgreens and others do not carry Bimix, Trimix and Quadmix; these need to be custom-ordered from special pharmacies. At New York Urology Specialists we only use FDA-certified pharmacies.  Retail pharmacies carry EDEX and Caverject but tend to be very expensive compared to generic prostaglandin. 

For the convenience of our patients, we work with pharmacies that offer less expensive injectable medications that require refrigeration; we also work with pharmacies that offer more expensive medications that do not require refrigeration which is convenient for men who travel extensively.

Side Effects of Penile Injection Therapy

Injectable medications for ED are highly effective but they are associated with some side effects which do not occur with oral medications.  

A small number of men may experience pain after penile injections if the erections are too strong. Lowering the dose of medications usually solves this problem. 

When prostaglandin is injected alone, 30-40% of men report pain which occurs when the medication starts working, typically 10-15 minutes after injection This pain is rare with Trimix and does not occur with Bimix.  Pain typically goes away after a few hours. Pain is dose-dependent. If a small dose of prostaglandin does not cause pain, a higher dose might cause penile pain.  For men who experience pain with alprostadil, the medication is usually changed to Bimix or Trimix.

Additional risks of injectable medications are priapism (an erection that lasts more than 3-4 hours). Should an erection last more than 3-4 hours, the patient needs to go to the nearest emergency room for treatment.  Typically, the first few doses of these medications are administered in our office and the patient is observed; the goal is to choose a dose of medication that creates a good erection that lasts under an hour.  This minimizes the risk of priapism.  We require patients to have phenylephrine injections at home to self-inject in case erections last more than 2 hours to make erections go away.  

Long-term use of penile injections is also associated with a risk of developing scarring in the penis which can lead to penile curvature, narrowing or shortening (Peyronie’s disease).

Who is a Good Candidate for Penile Injection Therapy for ED

Penile injection therapy is a well-tolerated treatment for ED with high effectiveness.  It is appropriate for men who do not achieve desirable results with oral treatment options such as Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, and Stendra or for whom shockwave therapy for ED does not work.  

Penile injection is a good alternative for men who experience unpleasant side effects from oral medications such as sildenafil, tadalafil, and avanafil. Penile injections are also used as part of penile rehabilitation therapy after radical prostatectomy.  Men for whom penile injection therapy does not work or they are unwilling to self-inject can be effectively treated with a penile implant.

Shang Ring circumcision
by on Oct 29, 2019

Overall, it was a good experience. Dr. Shteynshlyuger (Dr. Alex) was very nice, warm and helpful. He performed a Shang Ring circumcision for me and the procedure went well. I'm pleased with the results and there were no complications. If anyone is interested in the shang ring circumcision in the tristate area, then I'd recommend him. The whole procedure is $1850, which includes the initial consultation (provided that ther are no complications) and every follow up visit up to six months.
