Xialla, other rings, and ED meds.
Pills treat inflow. Rings treat outflow. Only Xialla’s patented anchor keeps the ring at the base during sex, so occlusion can hold without crushing tightness.

Comparisons refer to conventional constriction rings as a category and to oral PDE5 inhibitors. Effects listed under Physiological Effects follow from Xialla's design; with the exception of blood retention and erectile function, they have not been measured in published studies.
Why urologists use it
- Used and recommended by urologists in our partner program, including at UC Irvine and Princess Margaret Hospital.
- Evaluated in clinical studies — improved erectile function in 14 of 21 patients, and treatment salvage in 6 of 11 men with veno-occlusive dysfunction.
- Published in the International Journal of Impotence Research, in a perspective article on treating ED caused by venous leak.
- Patented anchoring design holds the ring in position during intercourse, so it maintains occlusion without the tightness a conventional ring requires.
- Several further physiological effects follow from the same design. Read about them.
