Erectile Dysfunction Treatment Seacombe

Understanding Erectile Dysfunction, Pelvic Floor Function and Available Treatment Options
 
Erectile dysfunction is a common condition which can affect men at all stages of life; it consists of having difficulty in achieving or in maintaining an erection that is adequate for sexual activity.
It is common to experience occasional problems with erections, and these can be connected with fatigue, stress or the consumption of alcohol. On the other hand, persistent erectile dysfunction may at times be related to existing health conditions which need to be evaluated by a medical professional.
At Lipo Sculpt, we believe it is an important first step to understand the possible causes of erectile dysfunction and the available treatment options so you can make informed decisions about your health.
Pelvic floor muscle function might be involved in some areas of male sexual and urinary health. Still, since there are many possible causes of erectile dysfunction, pelvic floor stimulation should not be considered a proven alternative to existing medical treatments.

What Is Erectile Dysfunction Seacombe?

ED, which is another name for erectile dysfunction, is the condition of having continual trouble in getting or keeping an erection.
Erections result from interactions among the nervous system, blood vessels, hormones and psychological factors.
Erectile problems can therefore have many causes, and it is important to identify the underlying cause before considering treatment.
Certain men have occasional problems, whereas others observe continuous changes which impact their self-esteem, their relationships or their sexual wellbeing.
Even though erectile dysfunction becomes more common as people get older, it by no means has to be seen as an inevitable aspect of ageing.
It is advisable to see your general practitioner or a specialist in sexual health if difficulties with erections persist.

What Causes Erectile Dysfunction Seacombe?

Several physical, psychological and lifestyle factors can contribute to erectile dysfunction.

Circulation and Cardiovascular Health

The extent to which a man can achieve an erection is in part due to good blood flow.

Such conditions as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes and cardiovascular disease can affect blood circulation and may thus lead to problems with erections.

Persistent problems with erections can on some occasions be an early sign of an underlying issue relating to cardiovascular health.

Hormonal Changes

Hormonal factors, such as low testosterone in certain cases, can lead to problems relating to sexual health.

A healthcare professional can decide if hormonal testing is appropriate.

Stress and Psychological Wellbeing

Stress, anxiety, depression and problems in relationships can all affect sexual function.

Erectile dysfunction can on some occasions be due to psychological factors even if there is no clear physical cause.

Lifestyle and Medication

Erection difficulties can result from smoking, the excessive consumption of alcohol, a lack of physical activity and some medications.

You should not stop or alter the medication that has been prescribed unless you first talk to the healthcare professional who is looking after you.

Pelvic Floor Muscle Function

The pelvic floor in males is made up of muscles which support the bladder and the bowel and are involved in certain parts of urinary and sexual function.

For some men, changes in pelvic floor strength, coordination, or function may be relevant.

Erectile dysfunction is not in every case due to a weak pelvic floor, and therefore tightening those muscles does not always lead to a solution to problems with erections.

Understanding the Male Pelvic Floor

The pelvic floor consists of a set of muscles situated at the bottom of the pelvis.
They support the bladder and bowel and help control urination.
Some pelvic floor muscles also take part in the physical processes that occur during erections and ejaculation.
Like other muscles, pelvic floor muscles can change in strength, coordination, and function.
Pelvic floor dysfunction may also affect muscles that are too tense as well as those that are weak.
That is why pelvic floor exercises aren’t suitable for everyone.
A qualified pelvic health physiotherapist or other suitable healthcare professional can evaluate pelvic floor function and recommend whether specific exercises or other treatments are appropriate.

Your treatment journey

What counts as an EM Chair?

The EM Chair stimulates muscle contractions in the pelvic floor area by using electromagnetic technology.
While you sit on the machine, electromagnetic energy stimulates the muscles in the area being treated.
The technology causes involuntary muscle contractions, so the individual does not need to perform any voluntary pelvic floor exercises during the session.
Stimulating the muscles doesn’t mean the device can treat erectile dysfunction.
There is not enough well-established clinical evidence to allow us to conclude that stimulation of the EM Chair leads to a reliable improvement in erections or serves as a treatment for erectile dysfunction.
It has not yet been firmly proven that this method is effective and safe over the long term for cases of erectile dysfunction.
An EM Chair should therefore not be promoted as a substitute for medically recommended treatments for erectile dysfunction.

Can stimulation of the pelvic floor muscles help with erectile dysfunction?

The pelvic floor muscles have a role in some aspects of male sexual function.
Research into pelvic floor muscle training among men with erectile dysfunction has found that it may be of benefit to certain individuals.
Supervised pelvic floor exercises and EM Chair stimulation, however, are different types of intervention.
Evidence for one method cannot be directly applied to the other.
At the moment, there is not enough high-quality evidence to prove that stimulation of the EM Chair is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction.
People who are having trouble with persistent erections should get medical advice to find out possible underlying causes and to talk over the available treatment options.

A considered approach

What takes place in a session using an EM chair?

When EM Chair sessions are available, the procedure usually involves sitting in a special chair while the device delivers electromagnetic stimulation to the pelvic floor.
The person generally stays dressed during the session.
Sensations may include a series of muscle contractions or a sense of movement in the pelvic floor area.
The session length, intensity, and appropriateness vary depending on the device, its instructions for use, and individual circumstances.
Some individuals may experience temporary discomfort or muscle soreness.
The device isn’t appropriate for everyone, especially those with certain implanted electronic or metallic medical devices.
Before any session, you must review the manufacturer’s contraindications and assess suitability.
It is important not to carry out EM Chair sessions solely to treat erectile dysfunction unless the device’s intended medical use, the clinical evidence supporting it, and appropriate professional supervision have first been established.

Established Treatment Options for Erectile Dysfunction

The treatment of erectile dysfunction will vary depending on the cause behind it, a person’s general health and their individual circumstances.

A general practitioner or another qualified sexual health professional can discuss several options.

Lifestyle Changes

In different cases, increasing physical activity, quitting smoking, cutting down on excessive alcohol intake, and managing cardiovascular risk factors can help promote general and sexual health.

Prescription and Pharmacy Medicines

Sildenafil and tadalafil are known to be treatment choices for some men.

These drugs are not suitable in all cases and must only be used after having obtained proper advice from a qualified healthcare professional or pharmacist.

Vacuum Erection Devices

Another well-established option that may be considered is the use of vacuum erection devices, particularly when medication is not suitable or doesn’t work.

A healthcare professional can explain how they work, their limitations, and whether they are suitable.

Psychological and Relationship Support

Counselling, psychosexual therapy or other forms of psychological assistance could be suitable in cases where stress, anxiety or problems in a relationship lead to difficulties with erections.

Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy

A pelvic health physiotherapist can assess pelvic floor muscle function and suggest personalised exercises or other suitable management strategies.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy does not take the place of looking into possible medical reasons for erectile dysfunction.

Why Medical Assessment Matters

Erectile dysfunction may in some cases be linked to health conditions which benefit from early detection and treatment.
A medical assessment may include discussing:
  • How frequently and for how long do erection difficulties last?
  • Any existing medical conditions and the medication prescribed.
  • The cardiovascular system and its associated risk factors.
  • Psychological wellbeing and lifestyle.
  • Consider whether further tests or a referral to a specialist might be appropriate.
We at Lipo Sculpt advise that anyone who is suffering from persistent erectile dysfunction should consult their GP or an appropriate sexual health service before thinking about having any further interventions.
A consultation regarding cosmetics or medical devices should not take the place of a medical diagnosis or treatment.
