Erectile dysfunction (ED) can be distressing, but it’s also one of the most treatable men’s health conditions.
For men who haven’t had success with oral medications, injectable treatments can offer a reliable and effective alternative.
At Moorgate Andrology, our Urologists specialise in advanced injectable therapies designed to help men regain confidence and enjoy a fulfilling sex life once again.
These injections work by relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow into the penis, producing a firm and sustained erection.
Unlike tablets, the results are almost immediate — usually within 10 to 15 minutes.
There are several types of injections used to treat ED. The most common are:
A single-drug treatment that widens blood vessels and increases penile blood flow.
Custom-blended combinations enhanced effectiveness.
These medications are injected directly into the side of the penis using a very fine needle.
The procedure is safe when administered correctly, and our Urologists provide full guidance on dosage and technique.
The duration varies depending on the medication and dosage used, but typically erections last between 30 and 90 minutes.
It’s important not to exceed the recommended frequency of use — generally no more than once in 24 hours and no more than three times per week.
Injectable treatments are well tolerated when used correctly, but potential side effects may include:
Mild pain or bruising at the injection site
Temporary redness or swelling
Prolonged erection (priapism), which requires urgent medical attention
Our team will teach you the correct injection technique to minimise these risks.
Erectile dysfunction injections are usually recommended when:
Oral medications like Viagra or Cialis are ineffective
There’s nerve damage after prostate surgery
You prefer a non-surgical solution before considering implants
If you’ve been diagnosed with Peyronie’s disease, injectable therapies may also be part of your treatment plan — though this depends on your individual condition.
