Background: In men, the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual function is known as Erectile Dysfunction (ED). It is a common condition, affecting approximately one in five men over the age of 40. Moreover, it is a treatable disorder that can significantly impact the well-being of both men and their partners. The most common causes are related to vascular and neurological impairments. Many men experiencing sexual difficulties may be reluctant to consult a physician, considering it an embarrassing issue. However, modern medicine has revealed multiple medical and psychological explanations for ED, including the possibility of serious underlying conditions. In Unani medicine, treatment aims to strengthen the vital organs with muqawwi-e-bah, muqawwi-e-asaab, and muqawwi-e-aza-e-ra eesa drugs, which are traditionally recommended for managing sexual disorders.

Aim: The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Unani drugs in participants suffering from Erectile Dysfunction and to provide affordable, natural, and safe medicine for all socio-economic statuses
