Treatment of erectile dysfunction after radical prostatectomy, including the use of penis pumps
Randomized trials of modern penile traction therapy (), especially , show consistent, statistically and clinically meaningful improvements in penile length and curvature at 3 months and through short-...
Pelvic floor physical therapy (PFPT) is a widely recommended, evidence-supported treatment for pelvic pain and many forms of sexual dysfunction because it targets muscle dysfunction, uses validated te...
after is proposed to preserve penile length and tissue oxygenation and to aid erectile-function recovery; most clinical trials show clearer benefit for penile-size preservation than for spontaneous-er...
Penis pumps (vacuum erection devices) are effective, evidence-backed tools for creating and maintaining temporary erections and can aid rehabilitation after prostate surgery, but they generally do not...
Randomized trials and major reviews show that vacuum erection devices () reliably produce adequate erections for many men—approximately 70% in pooled reports of device trials—and are especially useful...
-and-erectile-dysfunction">Radical prostatectomy commonly alters orgasmic function long-term: most men lose ejaculate (a “dry” orgasm) and a substantial minority report reduced intensity, pain with cl...
Water-based ("hydro") and air (vacuum) pumps both produce a negative-pressure environment that draws blood into the penis to create an erection, but claims that are categorically safer or more effecti...
Vacuum erection devices (VEDs), oral phosphodiesterase‑5 inhibitors (PDE5i), and intracavernosal injections are all established ED therapies with different mechanisms, strengths, and trade‑offs: oral ...
Vacuum erection devices (VEDs), phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5i), and intracavernosal injections (ICI) each produce effective erections for many men, but they differ in long‑term durability...
Vacuum erection devices (VEDs) are a durable, non‑invasive option that reliably produces erections mechanically and can be a long‑term alternative or adjunct to oral PDE5 inhibitors and to definitive ...
Penis pumps (vacuum erection devices) reliably produce a temporary increase in length and girth by drawing blood into the corpora cavernosa and are an effective non‑drug option to achieve and maintain...
Only a single randomized controlled trial of pelvic floor muscle training in an older male population explicitly reported any improvement in orgasmic or ejaculatory function, and that finding was desc...
Early vacuum erection device (VED) use after radical prostatectomy (RP) is associated with improved erectile function scores and preservation of penile length in multiple series, but the likelihood of...
