ENHANCED ED

    ED treatment in New Zealand.

    Erectile dysfunction is a symptom, not a diagnosis. We find what's actually causing it — then treat that. Doctor-led telehealth, anywhere in NZ.

    What You're Noticing

    The specific pattern matters — it's the single most useful thing in working out the cause. Tick what applies.

    Why the Cause Matters

    A prescription without a workup treats the symptom and misses what's underneath. There are four common drivers, and they need different answers.

    Vascular

    The one that matters most to rule out. ED can precede a cardiac event by 3–5 years — the vessels in the penis are smaller than those in the heart, so problems show up there first.

    Hormonal

    Low testosterone, high prolactin or thyroid dysfunction all affect erectile function and libido. Bloodwork tells us whether this is actually your driver, or a red herring.

    Medication-induced

    SSRIs, beta-blockers, thiazide diuretics, finasteride and opioids are all common causes. Often the fix is a medication conversation, not a new prescription.

    Psychological

    Performance anxiety, depression, relationship stress and porn-related patterns are real causes with real treatments — and they present differently to physical ED.

    What's Included

    • 30-minute initial telehealth consult — history, pattern, medication review, cardiovascular and mental-health screen
    • Lab request where clinically indicated — morning testosterone, SHBG, LH, FSH, prolactin, TSH, fasting lipids, HbA1c
    • Lab results reviewed and explained in plain English
    • Treatment plan addressing the cause, not just the symptom
    • Prescriptions where clinically appropriate, with a clear titration plan
    • Referral to cardiology, urology or psychological support where that's the right call

    How It Works

    01

    Book

    Choose a time that suits — all consults are telehealth, anywhere in NZ.

    02

    Consult

    A proper 30-minute conversation about the pattern, your history and your medications.

    03

    Bloods

    Where indicated, a panel at your local lab (Awanui, Pathlab) — so we're treating data, not guesses.

    04

    Treatment

    A plan that addresses what's actually driving it, with follow-up to check it's working.

    Honest expectations

    Most men with ED respond well to first-line treatment — but not everyone, and a tablet isn't always the right answer. If your bloods or history point to something else driving it, we'll tell you that and treat what's actually there. If ED is flagging cardiovascular risk, that becomes the priority, not the erection.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    ED becomes more common with age, but it's never just something to accept — and in younger men it's especially worth investigating. Around 1 in 4 men have some degree of ED by their mid-thirties. It's almost always treatable, and the cause usually matters more than the age.

    Not always, but usually yes. ED can be the first sign of cardiovascular disease, low testosterone or early diabetes — and none of those are visible without bloods. If the pattern clearly points elsewhere, we'll say so rather than order tests for the sake of it.

    You can, and for many men a PDE5 inhibitor is the right treatment. But ED is a symptom, and prescribing without looking for the cause means missing the cardiovascular, hormonal or medication-related problem underneath it. We do the workup first — it's usually the same consult.

    PDE5 inhibitors (sildenafil, tadalafil) are first-line and work for roughly 70% of men. Beyond those: treating the underlying cause (blood pressure, weight, sleep, a medication swap), hormonal correction where bloods show it, vacuum devices, and referral for second-line options where first-line treatment isn't working.

    Yes. Consults are telehealth, records are confidential under the Health Information Privacy Code, and we only contact your GP if you want us to.

    That's a real diagnosis with real treatment, not a dismissal. Psychological ED usually has distinguishing clinical features — preserved morning erections, situational onset — and we screen for it properly rather than assuming it once the bloods come back normal.

    The initial ED consult is $149 and a follow-up consult is $149. Any medication is on the standard NZ prescription pathway and dispensed at your community pharmacy — there is no markup from us.

    No PDE5 inhibitor (sildenafil, tadalafil) is funded in New Zealand for general erectile dysfunction, so the medication itself is a private prescription. Sildenafil can also be supplied without a prescription by specially trained pharmacists to men aged 35–70; tadalafil always requires a prescription.

    Book Your Appointment

    ED and low testosterone overlap, so the initial workup starts with the same first appointment — the Low Testosterone Assessment. It's a 30-minute doctor consult, $149, covering your symptoms, the wider causes of ED — vascular, medication-related, psychological — and the bloods worth running.

    TRT consultations

    Evidence-based testosterone replacement therapy assessment, with bloodwork referrals and ongoing follow-up included.

    Enhanced ED

    Erectile dysfunction assessment and treatment — a proper workup of vascular, hormonal, medication-related and psychological causes.

    Enhanced Athletes

    Discreet, judgement-free harm-reduction consultations for men using performance-enhancing compounds.

    Hair Loss Treatment

    Non-surgical hair loss assessment and medical management for men — prescribed and monitored by telehealth.

    Enhanced Support

    General men's health: weight, energy, sleep, sexual health and longevity reviews.

    What to expect

    Consultations run 20–30 minutes by secure video with your Enhanced Men doctor — an NZ-registered doctor practising evidence-based men's health. We review your history and goals, arrange any blood tests at a local NZ lab, and, where appropriate, send prescriptions directly to your nearest pharmacy. Follow-up reviews are scheduled to track response and adjust treatment over time.
