Erectile Dysfunction & Testosterone Support
A prescription that works is not the same as an answer. ED is frequently the first visible sign of something vascular or hormonal, which makes the workup the valuable part.
Who this program is for
Men who want the cause identified rather than the symptom managed — particularly those for whom a pill has worked, stopped working, or never suited them.
ED is a common and treatable sign of imbalance and is addressed here without embarrassment. What it should not be is dismissed — it can be an early vascular signal worth taking seriously.
What the program includes
Testosterone measured first
Low testosterone is a primary contributor to erectile dysfunction, and a simple blood test confirms whether it is low. That result changes what treatment makes sense.
Cardiovascular evaluation
Because ED can be an early sign of vascular problems, it is assessed as part of a comprehensive cardiovascular risk evaluation rather than treated as a standalone complaint.
Medication reviewed
Certain prescriptions — including some for depression, blood pressure and allergies — are known to affect sexual performance. Yours are reviewed as part of the workup.
Treatment options explained
Oral PDE5 medications, testosterone therapy where indicated, and PT-141 for men whose issue is desire rather than blood flow.
How this program runs
Foundational Assessment — $599
A full biological picture before anything is prescribed: symptoms, history, goals and comprehensive bloodwork, reviewed by Dr. Varano.
Membership — $279 / month
Ongoing clinical oversight, direct clinician messaging between visits, and protocol adjustments based on how you actually respond.
Your protocol
Built to your labs and your goals, then re-checked and adjusted as your numbers move. Nothing here is a fixed script.
Current program pricing is listed on the specialty treatment plans page.
What we track
Testosterone, estradiol and cardiovascular markers are followed through the program. Where a medication is prescribed, side effects and suitability are reviewed rather than assumed — these are not right for every man, particularly anyone taking nitrates.

Questions men ask us
How is low testosterone connected to ED?
Low testosterone is recognized as a primary contributor to erectile dysfunction, often accompanied by symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and loss of muscle mass. A simple blood test can confirm whether testosterone is low.
How do oral medications for erectile dysfunction work?
Oral ED medications function by increasing blood flow to the penis to help achieve and sustain an erection. They are part of a drug class called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors.
Can I take erectile dysfunction medications if I have other health conditions?
While many men can use ED medications safely, they aren't suitable for everyone. Men who take nitrates for chest pain or have certain health issues, like severe heart disease or very low blood pressure, may not be candidates.
Are there any side effects associated with erectile dysfunction medications?
Common side effects can include headaches, flushing, nasal congestion, indigestion, back pain, and dizziness. These are usually mild and resolve on their own.
Can erectile dysfunction be related to heart health?
Yes. ED can be an early sign of vascular problems, which is why it is considered as part of a comprehensive cardiovascular risk evaluation.
How does PT-141 treat erectile dysfunction differently?
PT-141 targets the nervous system to increase sexual desire rather than acting on the vascular system the way medications like Viagra do. Because it uses a different pathway, it can work for men who have not responded to those.
