Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

From the past two to three months, I did not get stimuli for sex and am suffering from erectile dysfunction. I am 32 year old. Currently I am taking high blood pressure medication from the past two years (Telma 20 tablets). My routine is hectic. Please suggest to me what to do.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you very much for consulting us. Erectile dysfunction and loss of libido are two main issues which are related to stress and hormonal imbalance and can be a side effect from medications like anti hypertension medications. Busy work and stress can be a main factor in absence of other causes. For that you need appropriate rest and physical exercise. It is recommended to check Testosterone level for all people who got loss of libido so you need serum testosterone level Test. I need to know what anti hypertension medication are you on as some medications will cause erectile dysfunction.

Please revert back to me with things I requested above to continue with management.

Kind regards.

Thank you.

Hello doctor,

Thank you for replying.

I have attached reports of testosterone test. I am taking Telmisartan tablet 20 mg for past two years for high blood prssure as prescribed by my doctor.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Thanks for following up. The hormone level is normal, which means there is no organic cause for your issue. I recommend you to have tablet Tadalafil 20 mg every three days. I hope this will resolve your issue.

Please do not hesitate to contact me again if you have any other queries.

Thank you.

Kind regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
