The best way to relieve the symptoms of erectile dysfunction without taking a medicine is to strengthen the muscles in your pelvic floor by doing Kegel exercises.

Following are some exercises to resolve the problem of ineffective erection due to erectile dysfunction:
Kegel exercises
Kegel exercises are simple moves that you can perform to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. Here is how to perform kegel exercises:
- Recognize your pelvic floor muscles at first by stop peeing midway. The muscles that you use to stop peeing midway are the pelvic floor muscles.
- After the identification of pelvic floor muscles recognition, contract these muscles for 3 seconds and then release them.
- Repeat this movement for 10 to 20 times in a row for three times per day.
A small study involving two groups of males with erectile dysfunction reports a comparative analysis. The first group of men performs pelvic floor muscle exercises daily with the help of a physiotherapist along the advice of lifestyle changes as well. On the other hand, the second group only receives advice on lifestyle changes. Males in the first group start to notice significant improvements in their penile function after 3 months of pelvic floor muscle exercises. While men in the second group start noticing little improvements in their penile function after 3 months. Furthermore, all the participants of both groups start performing at-home exercises and after 3 more months, almost 40 percent of all the participants notice a visible regain in normal erectile function. Another study also concludes that pelvic floor exercises are effective in the treatment of both erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. However, the ideal exercise routine is not clear but might find it more convenient to do kegel exercises while lying down at first and then eventually try then while you are standing or sitting.
