Erectile Dysfunction: The TRUTH About Cialis, Viagra & Testosterone — A Urologist Explains

In Part 2 of this conversation on men’s health and erectile dysfunction, Dr. Chhaya Makhija continues her discussion with sexual medicine specialist Dr. Katherine Klos, shifting the focus from causes to treatment.While erectile dysfunction is commonly associated with low testosterone, this episode highlights why treatment requires a broader perspective. Hormones are only one component of a complex system involving vascular function, neurologic signaling, metabolic health, medications, and psychosocial factors.They explore how medications such as Viagra and Cialis actually work — improving blood flow rather than desire and discuss why stimulation and intimacy remain essential. The episode also outlines what happens when oral medications are not effective, including injection therapy, vacuum devices, implantable prostheses, and newer regenerative options.If you or someone you care about has been struggling with ED and feeling unsure about the next step, this conversation will help clarify what realistic, evidence-based treatment actually looks like.Follow Dr. Chhaya Makhija here:https://www.instagram.com/chhayamakhijamd/https://www.facebook.com/unifiedendocrinehttps://unifiedendocrinecare.com/https://www.youtube.com/@chhayamakhijamdhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/chhayamakhijamd/Email: [email protected] Download Free Resources here: https://linktr.ee/chhayamakhijamdFollow Dr. Katherine Klos here:https://www.instagram.com/drkatherineklos/?hl=enhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/katherine-klos/https://www.youtube.com/@UCSEXmRjdUrJ8CIgGotoEJGA https://www.rachelrubinmd.com/drklos Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.
