A member asked:

Hi dr is chelation therapy helpful for treating erectile dysfunction caused by blocked arteries?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Blocked arteries need to be either bypassed or cleaned to have flow again. Chelation therapy, i can't comment on usefulness to avoid debate with other doctors. Some promote it, some don't. Some believe it, some don't. Some benefit financially, I am neutral.
