Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction, also knows as ED, is the most common sex problem that men report to their doctor. It affects as many as 30 million men. ED is defined as trouble getting or keeping an erection that’s firm enough for sex. Though it’s not rare for a man to have some problems with erections from time to time, ED that is progressive or happens routinely with sex is not normal, and it should be treated.
ED can happen:
- Most often when blood flow in the penis is limited or nerves are harmed
- With stress or emotional reasons
- As an early warning of a more serious illness, like: atherosclerosis (hardening or blocked arteries), heart disease, high blood pressure or high blood sugar from Diabetes
Finding the cause(s) of your ED will help treat the problem and help with your overall well-being. As a rule, what’s good for your heart health is good for your sex health.
Birth Control
Birth control pills are a type of contraception that is 99% effective at preventing pregnancy when taken consistently every day. The pill contains hormones that regulate menstruation, lower the risk of ovarian and uterine cancers, improve acne and treat endometriosis.
How effective is the pill?
The pill has the potential to be 99% effective at preventing pregnancy if you take it without fail — meaning you don’t forget to take the pill for even a day or two. However, taking the pill perfectly can be difficult, which is why nine out of 100 women who use the pill will have an unintended pregnancy every year. The pill is most reliable when you take it consistently at the same time each day. Being consistent helps keep hormone levels from fluctuating.
How does the pill work?
Hormones in birth control pills prevent pregnancy by:
- Stopping or reducing ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary).
- Thickening cervical mucus to keep sperm from entering the uterus.
- Thinning the lining of the uterus so that a fertilized egg is less likely to attach.

Birth Control
In addition to helping prevent pregnancy, some types of birth control can also help treat certain health problems or provide other health benefits — like making periods lighter and less painful. Birth control isn’t one-size-fits-all.
Urinary Tract Infections (UTI)
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common infections that can affect the bladder, the kidneys and the tubes connected to them. Anyone can get them, but they’re particularly common in women. Some women experience them regularly. UTIs can be painful and uncomfortable, but usually pass within a few days and can be easily treated with antibiotics.
Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs)
Our sexual health providers offer sex-positive testing, diagnosis, and treatment of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Regular STI testing and early treatment can help you stay safe and prevent the spread of STIs in our communities.
Sexual Health
Hormonal imbalance often results in low libido, vaginal dryness, or inability to orgasm which can be frustrating and stressful. But with correct treatment, patients are healthier, feel happier, have a more satisfying sex life, and improved relationships.
Pre and Post Exposure Prophylaxis
Pre Exposure Prophylaxis, also knows as PrEP, is a daily medication that reduces the risk of HIV infection by up to 99%. 95% of our patients pay nothing for PrEP.
Post Exposure Prophylaxis, also known as PEP, is a medication taken in emergency situations after a potential exposure to HIV. PEP must be started within 72 hours (3 days) after a possible HIV exposure.
