In the past, treatment started with using a vacuum pump to draw blood into the penis and then using a rubber band to tie at the base of the penis. However, it was not popular because the band caused numbness, was unnatural, and ejaculation was inconvenient due to the band being tied.
Later, treatment involved surgery to implant a penile prosthesis, which came in both types: a permanently rigid rod and the current model that has a pump hidden in the lower abdomen. When used, the pump moves fluid into the prosthesis rods, causing the penis to become erect. After use, pressing a button releases the fluid, allowing the penis to soften.
Although expensive, the surgery results in high patient satisfaction. Erectile dysfunction problems can now be treated in various ways according to the suitability and needs of each patient. Let’s continue exploring in this article.
What is Erectile Dysfunction?
The inability of the male genital organ to become erect or to become sufficiently erect for sexual intercourse, or in some cases, the erection does not last long. This can occur in men of all ages, not just the elderly. Nowadays, there are technologies that help treat erectile dysfunction.
Using low-frequency sound waves to stimulate blood circulation, or Focused Shockwave, helps strengthen and restore confidence in men. Erectile dysfunction is a problem that can occur in men of all ages, especially working-age men.
It is a condition where the penis does not become erect, caused by various factors such as sexually transmitted diseases like HIV, stress, anxiety about premature ejaculation, lifestyle factors including diet and drinking, and many other factors.
Currently, Shock Wave therapy is an effective treatment option for men and is also sought by those who want to increase the size of their penis using Shock Wave methods.
What is Penile Shockwave?
Shockwave Therapy for men uses technology to help solve erectile dysfunction caused by insufficient blood supply by using sound waves to stimulate the penis, promoting the expansion and creation of new blood vessels.
After treatment with Shockwave Therapy, blood circulation in the penis improves, resulting in better erections and it is also a method to naturally increase penis size. Shockwave treatment is safe for men and does not have side effects like medication.
How Shockwave Therapy Works to Treat Erectile Dysfunction
The principle of Shockwave therapy for men involves doctors using a device that emits low-intensity sound energy waves applied to the penis to create gentle external impacts.
Then, the Shockwave sound waves gradually spread vibrations through the penile tissue, stimulating the formation of new capillaries and improving blood circulation. With normal blood flow, the erection and expansion of the penis become more effective.
Since this treatment requires direct contact with the penis, patients must not have other diseases such as herpes, syphilis, or gonorrhea. Therefore, if these diseases are present, they must be treated first before undergoing Shockwave therapy.
Results of Shockwave Treatment
- After the 3rd-4th treatment, the ability to achieve an erection improves compared to before treatment.
- Increases the formation of new blood vessels, restores old blood vessels, and repairs spongy tissue in the penis.
- Reduces fibrosis in the penis.
- Helps treat chronic bacterial prostatitis.
- Improves sexual performance in patients who do not respond to *PDE5 drugs (*Phosphodiesterase-5 oral medications used to treat erectile dysfunction).
- Increased stamina, endurance, and duration.
Summary: Does Shockwave Really Treat Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction is a natural issue, but if it disrupts daily life, Shockwave therapy is a good option for men because it is easy, fast, effective, painless, safe, and has no side effects.
