MANY ways: Sometimes, lifestyle changes alone are enough: losing weight, drinking less alcohol or quitting smoking. Reducing or trying alternative medications may help, especially high blood pressure drugs & antidepressants. Medications include the well-known Viagra, (sildenafil) Cialis, etc. Psychotherapy to reduce anxiety can help as well as vacuum-devices & rarely surgery. Individualize therapy with your doctor.

It really depends: On what's causing your erectile dysfunction. If it's from a non-necessary medication, this may mean stopping it or finding an alternative. If it's related to a particular medical condition, either by addressing that medical condition or using a medication like a "Viagra (sildenafil)" may be able to compensate for that issue. Remember there are many other medications and even devices beyond Viagra (sildenafil).
