Erectile dysfunction (ED) can feel like a private struggle—but it’s often a sign of deeper health imbalances. At Patients Medical in NYC, we believe that ED doesn’t need a lifetime of pills—it needs root-cause healing. And yes, many of those solutions can start right at home.
From nutrition and exercise to hormone balancing and stress relief, our integrative, functional medicine approach empowers men to take back control of their health and vitality—naturally and sustainably.
Erectile Dysfunction is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for satisfying sexual activity. It can be short-term or chronic—but in either case, it’s a health signal worth investigating.
Often, ED is not just about aging or mental blocks. It’s about:
Metabolic dysfunction

Functional medicine helps identify and reverse these issues, starting with lifestyle and nutritional strategies at home.
