Choosing care
How to choose a mens clinic: 9 questions to ask before you book
There are many mens clinics advertising in South Africa, and quality varies widely. Here are nine questions on how to choose a mens clinic you can trust.
In short: Choose a mens clinic that is clear about who will see you and their qualifications, lists prices upfront, protects your privacy, explains its approach honestly without certain results, uses registered products, checks your medicines, refers you when needed, and offers follow-up.
1. Who will I see?
Ask about the practitioner’s qualifications and registration. At our practice, you see a naturopath.
2. What is your approach?
Some clinics offer prescription medicines, injections or procedures. Others, like ours, focus on natural, non-surgical support. Choose the approach that suits you. See what does a naturopath do.
3. What does it cost?
Look for transparent pricing before you book. Be wary of vague quotes or pressure to buy packages. Our consultation is R2,500, and remedy costs are confirmed upfront. See mens clinic prices.
4. Do you promise results?
Be cautious of clinics that promise certain results or lasting size increases. Honest clinics explain what is realistic.
5. Are your products registered and safe?
Ask what is in any product and whether it is registered. SAHPRA has warned about illicit sexual enhancement products with hidden ingredients. See sex pills.
6. Will you check my medicines and health history?
A responsible practitioner reviews your medicines to avoid interactions. See medications that cause erectile dysfunction.
7. Will you refer me if I need medical care?
Erection problems can signal heart disease or diabetes. A good clinic refers you for tests when needed. See heart disease and erectile dysfunction.
8. How is my privacy protected?
Ask about confidentiality, discreet packaging and how records are kept.
9. Is there follow-up?
Progress should be reviewed and plans adjusted.

Private self-check: 5 quick questions
Answer these honestly before you try anything new or book. They help you describe what is happening and get more from your first consultation.
- How often can you get and keep an erection firm enough for sex: almost always, most of the time, sometimes, or rarely?
- Do you still notice morning or night-time erections?
- Have stress, poor sleep, alcohol, smoking or long hours increased recently?
- Do you take medicine for blood pressure, the heart, diabetes or mood?
- Has your interest in sex dropped noticeably over the past year?
If you answered “sometimes” or “rarely” to the first question, a consultation is a sensible next step. Morning erections that still happen are often a reassuring sign that lifestyle, stress or confidence are playing a part, which natural support can address well. A yes to question four means any remedy needs checking for interactions first.

Your health and safety
Our naturopaths use natural remedies and lifestyle support, and always check your health history and current medicines first. If anything needs medical attention we tell you honestly and refer you to an appropriately registered medical professional. Avoid unregistered “enhancement” products sold online or at markets, as SAHPRA has warned that some contain hidden ingredients.
Seek urgent medical care for chest pain, an erection lasting more than four hours, sudden weakness or other sudden symptoms.

A consultation is R2,500, in person or remote, and your naturopath confirms any further costs before you go ahead. See our mens clinic prices for details.
