A reliable option when tablets are not enough
If oral medication has let you down or you are recovering from prostate or pelvic surgery, intracavernosal injections can offer consistent, on-demand erections.
It sounds intimidating at first, but with the right guidance, most men find injections easy, discreet, and highly effective.
How it works
A tiny dose of vasoactive medicine is injected into the side of the penile shaft – increasing blood flow, producing a firm erection that typically develops within 5 to 15 minutes and can last long enough for satisfying intimacy.
Who it can help
- Men who cannot take, tolerate or do not respond to oral tablets
- Post-prostatectomy or diabetes-related erectile dysfunction
- Men seeking a targeted, drug-sparing option without implants
The process
Benefits
- High success rates when tablets fail
- On-demand timing – you choose when to use it
- Precise dosing tailored to your response
- Compatible with rehabilitation programs after surgery
Safety and side effects
Most men experience minimal discomfort with correct technique. Possible effects include temporary ache or bruising at the site, prolonged erection, or rarely fibrosis.
We teach clear safety rules, including the correct dose, site rotation, maximum weekly frequency, and when to seek urgent help.
Your questions, answered
- Will it hurt – Most describe it as a brief sting that eases with proper technique and a fresh needle.
- How long does it last – Typically 30 to 60 minutes depending on dose and response.
- Is it discreet – Yes. Tiny syringes and a simple routine that becomes second nature with practice.
