Disclaimer: This self-check questionnaire is for informational purposes only and does not diagnose any medical condition. Male enhancement products—including pills, creams, devices, and supplements—may interact with underlying health issues or medications. If you are unsure about your symptoms or risks, consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Male enhancement products are marketed to improve erectile function, libido, stamina, or penis size. They range from prescription medications and vacuum devices to over-the-counter supplements and herbal formulas. Before using any product, it’s important to evaluate your symptoms, overall health, and expectations.
Use the checklist below to reflect on your situation. Select the statements that apply to you:
You checked only 1–3 items, symptoms are occasional, and there are no chronic diseases or medication risks. Lifestyle factors (stress, fatigue, temporary anxiety) may be contributing. Monitoring and lifestyle adjustments may be reasonable first steps.
You checked 4–7 items, symptoms persist longer than 3 months, or you have manageable health conditions. A primary care physician or urologist consultation is advisable before trying male enhancement supplements or devices.
You checked 8 or more items, have chronic illness (especially cardiovascular disease or diabetes), penile deformity, or significant psychological distress. Seek medical evaluation before using any male enhancement product. Some supplements may contain undeclared pharmaceutical ingredients and pose serious health risks.
This questionnaire does not provide a diagnosis but helps assess your level of risk and need for professional guidance.
