What really happens when you're referred to hospital for erectile dysfunction? Who will you meet? What questions will you be asked?

Ms Marta Skrodzka, Urologist from St Georges Hospital, Tooting joins Clare and Dr Fabio Catiglione to walk us through from the moment you step into the clinic, to the tests and treatments you might encounter.

We’re here to demystify the process. You’ll learn:

  • Who you’ll meet during your hospital visit
  • The questions you’ll be asked and why they matter
  • Common tests, including imaging and the NPT (Nocturnal Penile Tumescence) test
  • Understanding venous leak and how it’s assessed
  • The role of testosterone — including the risks of misuse
  • How PDE5 inhibitors are used and when they’re appropriate
  • The value of psychosexual counselling and where it fits in your care journey
