Causes of ED
What causes erectile dysfunction (ED)? Research indicates that 80% of erectile disorder cases stem from organic causes. For instance, ED symptoms can signify underlying cardiovascular issues, requiring careful evaluation and intervention.
Occasional erectile impotence can also be a typical part of aging or a side effect of certain medications, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), necessitating a comprehensive understanding of one’s health context.
ED risk factors include obesity, smoking, alcohol use, anxiety, and depression, which should all be addressed in treatment plans.
How do ED treatments work?
Common treatments like the ED pills sildenafil (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis) are classified as phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5is). These medications effectively increase blood flow to the penis, facilitating the achievement and maintenance of erections upon sexual stimulation.

As a member, you enjoy 24/7 on-demand virtual care with Treat Me Now or Urgent Video Chat via the One Medical app at no extra cost, regardless of your location in the United States.

*State availability varies by condition. Prices are subject to change.
Can I use my health insurance for Amazon One Medical Pay-per-visit?
Amazon One Medical does not accept health insurance for Pay-per-visit care. You can submit a claim to your insurer for possible reimbursement, but we can’t guarantee they will reimburse your one-time virtual visit.
If you typically use insurance to cover your medications, you can apply that to medications prescribed through all Amazon One Medical services. Amazon Pharmacy accepts most insurance plans. For other pharmacies, please consult directly about insurance coverage options. Remember, the cost of medication is separate from your visit fee.
What happens if my provider can’t diagnose or treat my health issue through Pay-per-visit?
If your provider cannot diagnose or effectively address your health concern through Pay-per-visit, they may advise visiting a primary care provider or a specialist for in-person care. You won't be charged for this recommendation.
Can I communicate with a provider after I receive my Pay-per-visit treatment plan?
Absolutely. When you utilize Pay-per-visit, you can message with One Medical providers within your personal dashboard for an additional 14 days at no further cost. This complimentary communication period allows you time to:
• Inquire about any prescriptions or over-the-counter medications in your treatment plan.
• Consult a provider if you believe your treatment should be adjusted based on your experiences.
• Report any side effects you might be experiencing from your medication.
• Notify a provider if there are any challenges in obtaining your prescription from the pharmacy.
• Let the One Medical care team know if you're feeling better or if there are ongoing concerns.
Your secure, HIPAA-compliant message will be directed to the first available provider, who will review your visit’s treatment plan and any follow-up correspondence. If you continue to require treatment adjustments or have further questions past the 14-day communication period, you’ll need to initiate a new visit.
What if I need to refill my medication?
If your provider didn’t include refills with the prescription when they provided your treatment plan through Pay-per-visit, you’ll need to start a new one-time virtual visit to request another prescription.
There are various reasons why a provider may determine that prescription refills are not medically appropriate. For example, they may want to evaluate how well a medication is working and whether any adjustments to your treatment plan are necessary before you continue with the same regimen.
How does Amazon One Medical protect my health information?
Amazon One Medical employs stringent, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-compliant privacy and security measures to protect customers’ protected health information (PHI) and keep it secure.
We remain committed to building an infrastructure that upholds customer privacy and prioritizes the safety of health information. We implement administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to secure customer information, including conducting thorough security reviews and testing throughout product development, utilizing encryption to protect sensitive data, and offering features like two-step verification to help customers secure their accounts.
Amazon does not sell customers’ personal information, including PHI, ensuring your information remains confidential and protected.
About ED treatment
Do erectile dysfunction medications work?
Clinical studies have demonstrated that PDE5 inhibitors like sildenafil (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis) are considered “revolutionary” treatments for ED. Why? These medications boast a 60-70% success rate, work quickly, and have a well-established safety profile.
If you’ve already tried one PDE5 inhibitor without success, research indicates that you should consider trying a different PDE5 inhibitor. Nearly 90% of men who have experimented with all the ED drugs at various times report improvements in their erections as a result.
When using ED medication, it’s crucial to adhere to dispensing instructions to maximize the medication's effectiveness in addressing ED symptoms. Studies suggest that in many cases where men were dissatisfied with sildenafil (Viagra), they were not following the prescribed dosage instructions correctly.
What’s the difference between the erectile dysfunction medications?
Sildenafil (Viagra) and vardenafil (Levitra) are both as-needed medications that should be taken about an hour prior to sexual activity. Healthcare professionals generally recommend taking these medications on an empty stomach for optimal results.
Tadalafil (Cialis) stands out as the only ED medication that can be taken both as-needed and daily (in a lower dose). This flexibility allows it to persist in your system longer, offering greater sexual spontaneity. Tadalafil can be taken with or without food, adding convenience to your routine.
Avanafil (Stendra) is another PDE5 inhibitor, though less commonly prescribed. It acts faster than other as-needed medications, but it currently lacks a generic version, which may lead to higher costs compared to other treatments.
Your provider will take into account your health history and individual preferences when determining treatment through Amazon One Medical. The most effective medication for ED will align with your lifestyle while maintaining a strong safety profile based on your unique physiology.
How many erectile dysfunction tablets can be prescribed through Pay-per-visit?
If your provider assesses that PDE5 inhibitors are appropriate for you, they will consider your lifestyle, preferences, and health history when formulating your online prescription through Amazon One Medical Pay-per-visit.
Daily tadalafil (Cialis) prescriptions are typically written as a 1-month or 3-month supply of 30 ED tablets/month plus refills to ensure ongoing treatment.
For as-needed prescriptions of tadalafil, sildenafil, or vardenafil, prescriptions are generally written as either a 1-month or 3-month supply with a specified number of ED tablets (6, 10, or 15) per month along with refills, based on your intended usage frequency.
If you exhaust your refills, a new prescription request will necessitate another ED consultation to ensure your medication needs are accurately reassessed and adjusted as necessary.
How safe are ED medications?
ED medications are generally considered safe when taken according to the guidance of a healthcare provider. However, they can lead to side effects if taken concurrently with certain medications or not adhering to prescribed guidelines. For instance, certain drug combinations can result in lowered blood pressure, while taking too many ED pills can cause headaches, digestive issues, and visual disturbances.
It’s essential to inform your provider about all medications you’re currently taking as well as any underlying health conditions when being evaluated for erectile dysfunction treatment. If you seek ED treatment via a telehealth consultation, especially if you’re young and otherwise healthy or possess specific risk factors, an online doctor may recommend seeing a primary care provider for an in-person evaluation before safely prescribing ED medication.
Are there any natural ways to make erections last longer?
Yes, certain lifestyle changes can generally enhance sexual health, such as:
• Experimenting with new approaches in the bedroom to maintain interest and excitement.
• Reducing alcohol consumption, which can improve overall performance and satisfaction.
Can I get treatment for premature ejaculation?
Yes, if you’re experiencing symptoms related to premature ejaculation, we recommend that you start by visiting Amazon One Medical's dedicated Premature ejaculation page for tailored guidance and treatment options.
What’s the difference between an ejaculatory disorder and an erectile disorder? Premature ejaculation refers to when men ejaculate too early (typically within 2 to 3 minutes), while erectile dysfunction (ED), also known as impotence, involves having difficulty maintaining an erection.
Both erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation can occur simultaneously. If you experience both conditions, providers typically suggest addressing ED first before implementing treatments for premature ejaculation.
Can I get telehealth ED treatment if I don’t get erections at all?
No, if you are experiencing an inability to achieve any erections, a telehealth visit may not be the most suitable option for you. It will be necessary for you to consult a primary care provider for an in-person evaluation.
There are two types of erections: reflex erections and psychogenic erections. An inability to achieve a reflex erection could indicate an underlying nerve issue or another organic condition that would require thorough examination.
