Treatment options for ED-EDCure.org
The successful treatment of ED is best achieved by a step by step process in which the all of the options are delineated and then starting with one that is most cost effective, safest, easy to administer and one that works satisfactorily with out side effects. It is a process and it is not advisable to skip steps and jump immediately to a surgical solution.

The EDCure.org website is an excellent resource in all things ED and worth visiting before an office visit for this problem.

It is believed that one possible cause of overactive bladder is miscommunication between the brain and the sacral nerves; when the brain and sacral nerves don’t communicate correctly, the nerves will not tell the bladder to function correctly, which can cause bladder control problems.
The theory behind Medtronic Bladder Control Therapy is that gentle electrical stimulation of the sacral nerves reduces the signals to the nervous system which may be causing bladder control symptoms such as leaks, the sudden urge to go, or going too often.
The physicians at Northeast Georgia Urological Associates are experienced in the Medtronic InterStim implantation process and follow-up. Contact us if you feel your degree of bladder frequency or urgency warrants an evaluation.
If you add in the fact the drug only acts when it is needed by the male and that it has an effect for 36 hrs…you might agree that Cialis is indeed the new…Vitamin C.
