GAINSWave in Rochester NY - Shockwave Treatment for ED

What is Sexual Dysfunction?
How does an erection occur?
When the blood vessels of the corpora cavernosa relax and open up, blood rushes in through the cavernous arteries to fill them. The blood then gets trapped under high pressure, creating an erection. The tunica albuginea (the membrane surrounding the corpora cavernosa), helps to trap the blood in the corpora cavernosa, sustaining the erection (Cleveland Clinic)

Risk factors and lifestyle choices
The risk of developing long-term ED, the type caused by a medical condition that interferes with either the nerves that control an erection or the blood supply needed to maintain one, increases with age (Everyday Health)
Underlying conditions
- Heart disease
- Clogged blood vessels (atherosclerosis)
- High cholesterol
- High blood pressure
- Diabetes - ED can stem from damage to nerves and blood vessels caused by poor long-term blood sugar control for patients who have type 2 diabetes (Mayo Clinic)
- Obesity
- Metabolic syndrome — a condition involving increased blood pressure, high insulin levels, body fat around the waist and high cholesterol
- Parkinson's disease - diminished sexual function is practically inevitable. From lack of sexual desire to low libido to difficulties with orgasmic functioning, this chronic, progressive, neurological disease can impair your sexuality in one way or the other (APDA)
- Multiple sclerosis
- Prostate cancer - Surgery for prostate cancer can sever some of the nerves or arteries that are needed for an erection. For men who undergo a radical prostatectomy (removal of the prostate gland), the estimates of how many men will regain their ability to have erections vary widely, from 25% to 80% (Harvard Health)
- Certain prescription medications - These include antidepressants
- Sleep disorders
- Treatments for prostate cancer or enlarged prostate
- Surgeries or injuries that affect the pelvic area or spinal cord
- Low testosterone - The hormone testosterone plays a big part in men’s health, but perhaps its most meaningful role is to fuel sex drive. If testosterone levels drop too low, men can experience erectile dysfunction as well as lackluster libido (Harvard Health)

Research
Effects of Low-Intensity Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy on Erectile Dysfunction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (NIH | 2017)
Review of the Current Status of Low Intensity Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (Li-ESWT) in Erectile Dysfunction (ED), Peyronie's Disease (PD), and Sexual Rehabilitation After Radical Prostatectomy With Special Focus on Technical Aspects of the Different Marketed ESWT Devices Including Personal Experiences in 350 Patients (NIH | 2020)
LI-ESWT applied to the corpora cavernosa showed a statistically significant improvement in the quality of erections in ED patients with or without oral or intracavernous treatment, without side effects. The improvement effect diminished slightly in the final assessment. (Hindawi | 2017)
Statistics
- Low-intensity shock wave therapy also demonstrated promising results in patients with vasculogenic ED (Dspace Repository | 2021)
- Six sessions of LiST applied once weekly for 6 weeks or twice weekly for 3 weeks seem to be equally safe and effective in patients with CP/CPPS (Wiley Online Library | 2021)
- 93.9% of the patients with mild ED without CAD responded to treatment and 72.7% resumed normal erectile function, from low-intensity shockwave treatment for erectile dysfunction (Asian Journal of Andrology | 2021)
