It is best to adopt a simple and straightforward approach. You should begin by telling your doctor that you have a sexual issue that you need to discuss with him. At the outset you must let him know how you feel about the matter. If you are nervous let him know it. It is advisable to be direct and tell him that you have heard a lot about erectile dysfunction and prescription medicines for treatment being available. Ask him if you can discuss this with him because you think you have a similar problem, as it is related to your erections. Let him know of your feelings about the present state of affairs and what is important for you as you proceed with the treatment.

Once you have opened the conversation this way you have done your part by addressing the issue. Now be prepared to answer correctly and openly to the questions your doctor may put. Many of them may appear unrelated to ED but rest assured your doctor has a reason for asking these question because every answer will provide him with clues to your diagnosis and line of treatment. He may want to know since when you have been facing the problem, whether you suffer from diabetes, hypertension, cardiac problems or any other health issues along with the medications you are presently taking for any ailment.

Other than this he would also like to check up on the psychological aspect and ask you about your marital relationship, any stress situations you are facing in other spheres of your life as also about habits related to your lifestyle e.g. drinking, smoking and substance abuse. The answers you will provide to these questions will guide your physician about other questions that he needs to ask.

You must feel absolutely comfortable during the conversation. If you find some questions disturbing, be straightforward and ask for reasons why the question is being asked. This can let you gain more knowledge about ED.

Most important is to let your doctor know of your own views on ED and its treatment. If you have tried any therapies earlier that were not effective tell your doctor everything about it. Similarly if there are other treatment methods and therapies that you know about but would not be interested in trying make sure to let him know of this also. Ask about available prescription drugs, vitamins and supplements and other newer options in treatment that are available and how suitable can they be in your case.

There are several prescription drugs for erectile dysfunction. Ask your doctor which one would be best for you.
