What is ED?
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is defined as the inability to achieve or maintain an erection that is satisfactory for sex. ED is surprisingly common affecting 52% of men.

Which treatments do you offer for hair loss?
Currently we offer a variety of brand name and generic medications for hair loss. Consult your Phoenix physician and our online assessment to find the right solution for you.
How effective are prescription hair loss medications?
Phoenix offers treatment options which are known to be effective at treating thinning hair. While taking the medication consistently, long-term studies have shown increased hair on men within 3-6 months of starting treatment. The treatments that Phoenix offers are best used to prevent further hair loss, and are not a solution to regrow lost hair.
Hair regrowth is a naturally slow process so it may take a few months to notice any significant changes.
What happens if I stop using my hair loss treatment?
If you stop using your hair loss treatment, you’ll most likely lose the hair you regrew during treatment in three to four months. As a result, for the best benefits, it is recommended that you use it on a regular basis.
We’ll send you a refill of your hair loss therapy every month to keep you on track with your hair restoration journey, so you never have to worry about running out. You may keep any hair you regrow and encourage fresh hair development by staying on top of your hair growth prescription.
