Shockwave therapy for impotence and to improve potency

Recently, men are increasingly prescribed shock wave therapy for impotence, but only in the form of an auxiliary lever. That is, in combination with other drugs and agents aimed at combating erectile dysfunction.

This method of physiotherapeutic intervention is able to provide a reliable and high-quality result in a relatively short time. However, only if the other recommendations of the attending physician are fully followed.

How does a shockwave apparatus work?

Shock wave therapy (SWT) is one of the non-invasive methods of treating a variety of pathological conditions throughout the body. The relevance of its use in urology is due to its high efficiency.

According to the studies, approximately 70% of patients who suffered from some form of sexual dysfunction noted a significant improvement in their condition and the resumption of sexual activity. Shock wave therapy for potency is applied after the appropriate recommendation of the doctor.

Rendered effects:

• Destruction of fibrous conglomerates formed in the cavernous bodies of the penis.
• Improvement of microcirculation and activation of all metabolic processes.
• Stimulation of the synthesis of endogenous collagen, which helps to stabilize the functions of the genital organ.
• Reduction of manifestations of the inflammatory process, elimination of pain (if any).
• Speeding up the regeneration processes.

I must say right away that similar results are achieved by combining drug and shock wave therapy. Fibrous areas are destroyed gradually, without any harm to the man's body. Such an intervention does not affect the size of the penis and does not lead to negative consequences.

The procedure consists in directing a special sensor to the perineal area, which generates appropriate waves that have a healing effect.

Indications

A shock wave apparatus for the treatment of male impotence should be used only after consultation with a doctor. It should be noted that this is far from the only area in medicine where this technique can be applied. The physiotherapeutic effect of the device is relevant in vertebrology, rheumatology, sports medicine and many other fields.

Indications for UHT use:

Shock wave therapy for the treatment of impotence is justified only in cases where the pathology is caused by insufficient blood supply to the penis or the formation of fibrous conglomerates in its cavernous bodies, which leads to erectile dysfunction.

In all other situations, SWT can be considered purely as an auxiliary measure to improve the state of the circulatory system, but no more. Such a procedure will be ineffective for an infectious, hormonal or psychological cause of impotence.

Penile SWT technique

Depending on the degree of progression of the problem, the approach to its therapy is also different. If the patient suffers from a slight decrease in erection, 1-2 appropriate procedures may be enough for him. With an average severity of the problem, the number of sessions can be expanded to 5-6.

In parallel, appropriate medical treatment is required to enhance the effectiveness of the shock wave apparatus.

No more than 2 sessions can be carried out in one week. Typically, therapy is broken down into several stages. The first month the patient attends 6-7 procedures. Then you need to take a break of 1.5-2 months, after which the same number of sessions is repeated again.

It is difficult to say exactly when the effect of the treatment will take place. There are only general principles that apply to most patients. Much depends on the degree of progression of impotence, the individual characteristics of the patient, the presence of chronic pathologies and the like. Only a doctor, after a thorough examination of the patient, can adequately assess the severity of problems with potency and the need for a certain number of sessions of shock wave therapy.

Contraindications

We should also mention situations when the use of UHT is prohibited.
