Erectile dysfunction (ED) affects millions of men over 40, but it doesn’t have to define your life or intimacy. In this episode of Live Better Without Surgery, Dr. Joe Albano explores innovative, non-surgical approaches to reclaiming confidence and improving sexual health.
Dr. Albano discusses the science behind regenerative treatments like PRP (platelet-rich plasma), low-intensity shockwave therapy, and even intracavernosal Botox. He explains how these therapies can restore vascular health, improve nerve function, and work synergistically to enhance erectile function — all without relying solely on medications.
This episode is part of the Albano Clinic’s holistic approach: optimizing hormone balance, managing weight, and supporting overall wellness to improve both your joints and sexual health.
