If you've been dealing with erectile dysfunction and wondering what to do next, the first question for most men is the same one.
Do I go to my GP? Or do I look at private options?
And the honest answer is: it depends on what you actually need. Both routes have real value. Both have real limitations. And knowing what each one can and can't offer makes a big difference before you decide.
We've written a full, transparent breakdown of exactly what happens at each step of both routes, including what the NHS will and won't prescribe, when specialist referral happens, what a private assessment actually involves, and what the costs look like.
It's the kind of information that should be easier to find than it is.
