EP 660: ED Evaluations: What Should My Urologist Look For When Diagnosing/Treating My ED?

In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee answer a listener question about a diagnostic testing for erectile dysfunction. This listener's urologist has recommended a pharmaceutical penile Doppler ultrasound to help identify the cause of his ED, and he's wondering whether that kind of testing is normal. Dr. Mistry explains that a variety of factors might come into play, including those that are psychological, hormonal, neurological, and/or vascular. Penile Doppler ultrasounds can help determine which blood flow concern is causing your ED, but beware any claims that "results are guaranteed," especially by pop-up men's health clinics that only offer one type of treatment for ED. Normal ultrasounds can be manipulated to give the impression of lower or higher blood flow/volume; thus, it is easy to fake vascular changes to justify overpriced ED treatments. True Doppler ultrasounds can help your urologist identify both the cause of your ED and the best treatment options for you.
