I have tried pills for ED assistance without much help. I'm looking a the the pump approach and would like to hear any experiences you may have had using these devices. Pros and cons and brand experience. Thanks.

Hi Perry, you will find members like @jimhd @jakedduck1 @glenner075 and others talking about pump approaches and other treatments for erectile dysfunction in the Men's Health group (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/mens-health-1/) in this discussion:

- ED treatments https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/ed-treatments/

I suggest you hop over there, join the discussion and ask your questions.

@a2perry
I have no experience with pumps or implants.
Neuropathy was the primary cause of my ED. I tried pills too that didn't help.
I tried pills including Cialis and was expecting some help for a drug I paid over $60 for.
Someone told me about penis injections and immediately I said “NO WAY!” but I checked into it and now use it (Trimix) very successfully. Don't be concerned about the injections being painful, it's not. The needles are very small. At worst it's like a pinprick but usually I never feel it at all.
It isn't cheap though. I last paid $37.50 for prefilled syringes but it's available in vials that are a little cheaper. I imagine the price varies by strength & dose. This medication has to be filled at a Sterile Compounding Pharmacy. I live in California, not sure if it's more expensive here or not. I believe another member, @jimhd had a penile implant awhile back. Hopefully he will join in.
Best of luck you,
Jake
