What is Erectile dysfunction?

Erectile dysfunction sits within the sexual health area that Hi-Doctor covers. Our doctors review your case individually — not through an algorithm — and propose a therapeutic approach when indicated.

How is Erectile dysfunction evaluated in an online consultation?

You fill in a sexual health-oriented medical questionnaire (~5 min). An EU-licensed doctor reviews your clinical history, current medication, allergies and background in less than 2 hours on average. If clarifications are needed, they message you via the private chat in your account.

What treatments does the doctor consider for Erectile dysfunction?

The doctor proposes the most appropriate treatment among those authorised in the EU for sexual health. The plan is €25/month for weight loss or €15/month (billed €45 every 90 days) for hair growth; sexual health remains a €35 one-off consultation. If your case is not eligible, the applicable fee is refunded in full.

How long until you see results?

It depends on the case. For sexual health, reasonable timelines are explained during the consultation and follow-up lives inside the private chat. The full medical record stays in an auditable thread inside your account.

Can I consult for Erectile dysfunction from Zaragoza?

Yes. Hi-Doctor runs 100% online across the EU, so from Zaragoza you can fill in the questionnaire and receive the medical review without travelling. The electronic prescription issued by the licensed doctor is valid at any EU pharmacy under Directive 2011/24/EU; in Spain it is dispensed directly from the prescription QR.

Is my sexual health consultation fully confidential?

Yes. All communication happens in the private chat of your account, GDPR-compliant. The doctor treats discretion as a core of the service and there is no history visible outside your consultation.

What is the private electronic prescription and why is it valid across the EU?

The private electronic prescription (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) is issued by a licensed doctor in Spain. It is a PDF carrying every field required by EU Directive 2011/24/EU (patient, prescriber with country of registration, active ingredient, dose), which makes it legally recognised across all 27 EU member states. In Spanish pharmacies it is dispensed from the QR; outside Spain, the pharmacist dispenses the locally marketed equivalent of the same active ingredient.

How does Hi-Doctor work step by step?

If the review is not approved, the applicable fee is refunded in full.

SEXUAL HEALTH

Erectile dysfunction

The cause can be cardiovascular, hormonal or psychological. The online consultation starts by ruling out anything serious before proposing a treatment.

WHAT IT IS

Erectile dysfunction is the persistent difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity. It is not an isolated episode but a recurring pattern over time.

Its causes can be varied — from vascular and hormonal factors to psychological aspects such as anxiety or stress. For this reason, a medical assessment is essential to identify the origin and determine the most appropriate approach.

The doctor considers the overall health context — including cardiovascular and metabolic conditions, and the use of other medications — before proposing any treatment option.

HOW COMMON IT IS

A common condition, particularly after age 40, though it can occur at any age. Many men experience it at some point in their lives.

CAUSES

Cardiovascular causes (hypertension, atherosclerosis)
Hormonal causes (low testosterone, diabetes)
Neurological causes
Psychological causes (anxiety, stress, depression)
Medication (antidepressants, antihypertensives)
Lifestyle (smoking, alcohol, sedentary habits)

TREATMENT APPROACHES

Lifestyle modification (exercise, diet, smoking cessation)
Psychological counselling or sex therapy
Oral medication (PDE5 inhibitors) after medical assessment
Hormonal therapy if a diagnosed deficiency exists
Vacuum devices or intracavernosal injections in selected cases

WHEN TO SEE A DOCTOR

See a doctor if the difficulty is persistent (several weeks), if it affects your relationship or self-esteem, or if it appears suddenly after an injury or surgery.
