The First Step in Treating Erectile Dysfunction is Talking to a Specialist
That's why we're here.
Our specialists at Clinton Memorial Hospital (CMH) understand that talking about Erectile Dysfunction (ED) can feel embarrassing, but unwarranted embarrassment should not stop you from getting the care you need.
ED is so common that it affects half of all men between the ages of 40 and 70. When ED is ongoing - and continues after treating underlying health conditions that can cause ED - patients can experience stress, relationship strain and lower self-esteem.
Get the care you deserve.
Urology Associates of Southwest Ohio, located near CMH, offers a comprehensive approach to treating your ED or the underlying conditions that cause it. They have had particular success with a new, alternative, non-invasive treatment for ED called low-intensity shockwave therapy (LiSWT).
LiSWT is recommended for patients who do not respond well to medications prescribed to treat ED, but do not want more invasive treatments. The initial results of LiSWT (within the first few weeks) can be dramatic, with full benefits achieved in one to three months. You can read more about LiSWT here.
At CMH, we understand that urology issues are sensitive and can be difficult to discuss. Our team of multidisciplinary specialists work together to diagnose and treat a wide variety of urological issues, and will work with you to get you back to your most comfortable selse.

What is BPH?
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, or BPH, is a condition in which the prostate enlarges as men get older. BPH is a very common condition that affects over 40 million Americans and over 500 million aging men worldwide. Over 40% of men in their 50s and over 70% of men in their 60s have BPH1. While BPH is a benign condition unrelated to prostate cancer, it can greatly affect a man’s quality of life.
As the prostate enlarges, it presses on and blocks the urethra, causing bothersome urinary symptoms such as:
• Frequent need to urinate both day and night
• Weak or slow urinary stream
• A sense that you cannot completely empty your bladder
• Difficulty or delay in starting urination
• Urgent feeling of needing to urinate
• A urinary stream that stops and starts
If you suffer from the above symptoms, you are not alone. BPH is the leading reason men visit a urologist.
