In Meet the Penis episode 87 (MTP 87), founder and lead urologist Dr. Paul Perito of Perito Clinic and Perito Urology in Miami discusses the relationship between veno-occlusive disease and erectile dysfunction ( ED ). Patients with veno-occlusive-disease account for roughly 80 percent of the cases we see and treat for ED at Perito Urology and the Perito Clinic in Miami. In most of these cases, the disease is genetic, although other factors such as diabetes or having bypass surgery may also lead to it. In veno-occlusive erectile dysfunction, penile veins aren't able to store enough blood to maintain an erection. When this occurs, the three main options for patients suffering from this: 1. High-dose injection therapy 2. Penile implants 3. Stop having sex Veno-occlusive ED is a valvular issue. It's typically congenital, a physiological condition, and not a psychological one, and should be treated by a trained and experienced urologist, like those here at Perito Urology and the Perito Clinic. #EDtreatment #penileimplants #erectiledysfunction To learn more about veno-occlusive disease and erectile dysfunction in general, visit: www.peritourology.com www.peritoclinic.com 135 San Lorenzo Ave, Suite 540 Coral Gables, FL 33146 (833) 876-3455
