Men of all ages frequently experience erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence, and it is a difficult health issue that adversely affects the quality of life of those who experience it. There are multiple types of treatment strategies for ED available, depending on the origin and severity of ED, as well as any underlying medical issues. However, these therapeutics are known to have a number of negative health effects. In contrast, plant-based treatments are more effective for managing diseases due to their ability to modulate biological processes like inflammation, oxidative stress, and cell signaling molecules. Many medicinal plants have been reported to be quite helpful in the improvement of ED. In this review, ED and its causes, diagnostic methods, treatment strategies, and some of the most potent plant-based interventions against ED are discussed in greater detail, along with a description of their mechanisms of action and a brief discussion of approaches to increase their efficacy, with a focus on the management of ED using herbal interventions as complementary and alternative medicines. While there is hope that medicinal plants could provide lead substances for erectile dysfunction medications, additional investigation is necessary to ascertain the efficacy and security of these prospective treatments.
