Benefits of vacuum therapy for impotence

Vacuum therapy for impotence. Vacuum pump is a high-performance device for increasing the male sexual organ and improving its functions. Manufacturers guarantee a rapid effect and a lasting result. There are electric and manual devices. The manual version is a cylinder with a diameter of 7 cm and a length of about 20 cm. A manual pump is attached to it, which pumps the air out of the cylindrical tank. This pump is most often made of acrylic plastic. But the vacuum in electrical devices is created with the help of an electric pump, which evenly pumps out air.

So, the action of the pump is based on creating a vacuum inside the device, in which the penis is located. As a result of lowering and increasing pressure, blood flow in the penis improves, making it longer and thicker than with a normal erection. As soon as the pressure subsides, the blood flow is normalized, and the male dignity regains its former size. Therefore, vacuum therapy for impotence has its positive and negative sides for the male body.

Before vacuum therapy, you should always consult your doctor. This is a simple routine procedure, but it helps to determine the patient’s state of health. The cause of erectile dysfunction can be psychological problems, which are completely curable. To determine if vacuum therapy is an effective treatment for you, the urologist should identify the following aspects. These are:

• The general condition of the man
• Illnesses that the person has suffered throughout his life
• Traumas and tumors that have been suffered, especially traumas of the reproductive organs

Also the doctor needs to find out whether there were surgeries on the penis, testicles, prostate gland or large intestine. You must tell the specialist about medications that you use. The physician should conduct a medical examination of the genitals and check the pressure in the peripheral arteries. Rectal palpation can be prescribed this is a procedure for examining the surface of the gland through the anus.

Basically vacuum pumps for vacuum therapy are sold without a prescription. But it would be better to talk to an urologist who will assign a certain brand of the pump. Therefore, a man can be sure that the device fully meets his needs. It is very important to choose pumps with a safety valve that does not allow exceeding the critical pressure level and protects the penis from possible injuries. Before use and after it, the vacuum pump must be washed with warm water and soap. Do not use boiling water.

Before using the vacuum pump for men, it is advisable to lubricate the nozzle at the base of the plastic bulb with a lubricant. But do not forget that grease on a fat basis can damage the material of the product.

Next a man places his penis inside the device for vacuum therapy. At the next stage, the air is pumped out of the pump. Therefore a low-level atmosphere is created inside, which leads to an inflow of blood. The flask should be held with one hand, and the other must squeeze a piston. Do not forget to pinch the opening on the flask, and if the tightness is created with a special valve, make sure that it is closed. You can notice slight redness of the skin and the appearance of an erection. After 30 seconds of exposure, it is necessary to open the valve and run the air into the flask. The procedure lasts approximately 15-20 minutes. During this time, an erection lasting one minute can happen 10-15 times.

To achieve a long-term result, you must conduct vacuum therapy regularly every two days. The first two weeks are best to use the device every day for 1-2 hours before bedtime. Starting from the third week, you can increase the exposure to vacuum up to 1 minute. Increase the rest time to 2 minutes.
