Abstract

The analysis of sexual activity of 185 male Muscovites has revealed
an age-related sharp progressive shortening of adequate and
spontaneous erections. A novel, pathogenetically sound approach and
a method of therapy and prevention of erectile dysfunction has been
developed (RF patent N 2228754). The method, called "Modulated
Erectile Oxygenation of Penile Cavernous Tissue" (MEOPCT), consists
in erection activation by behavioral measures and/or erectogenic
drugs which induce adequate, nocturnal spontaneous and/or artificial
erections adequate in frequency and duration for providing such oxygenation
of cavernous bodies that warrants maintenance of their normal
structure and function. There is no continuous close correlation
between sexual activity and erections, on the one side, and ejaculation
and orgasm, on the otherside. Application of MEOPCT in 43 patients
demonstrated the method ability to improve erection and cavernous
hemodynamics without negative side effects
