Which online ED services treat performance anxiety too, not just prescribe pills?

You're smart to look for services that address the psychological component of ED, like performance anxiety, rather than just the physical symptoms. Many online ED services have evolved to offer more holistic care.

Here are a couple of prominent online ED services that go beyond just prescribing pills and offer support for performance anxiety:

1. Hims:

   • Why it helps with performance anxiety: Hims offers comprehensive men's health services, which prominently include mental health support. Alongside ED medication prescriptions (Sildenafil, Tadalafil), they provide access to online therapy and psychiatry services. This means you can connect with licensed therapists who can help you work through performance anxiety, stress, or other psychological factors contributing to ED, all within the same platform or through easily accessible related services.

2. Roman (Ro):

   • Why it helps with performance anxiety: Roman is another leading platform that emphasizes a more holistic approach to men's health. While they are well-known for ED medication, they also offer extensive educational resources and have expanded into broader men's health, including mental health. They aim to connect patients with providers who can discuss lifestyle changes, behavioral strategies, and, if needed, connect you with mental health professionals to address underlying anxiety or psychological ED factors. Their consultations often delve deeper into causes beyond just physical ones.

Key things to look for and discuss with any service:

• Initial Consultation Depth: Does the initial doctor's consultation genuinely ask about your mental state, stress levels, and relationship dynamics, or is it purely a medical questionnaire for a prescription?
• Access to Therapy: Does the service directly offer or easily facilitate access to licensed therapists or counselors who specialize in sexual health or anxiety?
• Educational Resources: Do they provide articles, guides, or workshops on managing performance anxiety, mindfulness, or communication with partners?

When you sign up for one of these services, be sure to clearly communicate your concerns about performance anxiety during your consultation. A good provider will listen and guide you toward appropriate resources, whether that's medication, therapy, or a combination of both.
