The present study shows for the first time that penile angiogenesis and improved erectile function can be induced by HBOT in men suffering from chronic non-surgical Erectile Dysfunction. The improvement in sexual performance was significant in all IIEF domains and was most noticeable in both erectile function and the global efficacy question responses. Penile angiogenesis was demonstrated by perfusion MRI analysis.

This is fascinating, thank you for sharing!

I would love to know the details of these HBOT sessions but as far as I know, this treatment is already available. I know there is one of these hyperbaric chambers in my city, at the local public hospital.

[AlterEgo]

Yes these treatments are available.  Must use a hard shell chamber with ata of 2.0 or more.  Surprised this does not get more attention with such high results and proven by dopplar. Anyone tried it.  Thing is it's expensive here it is like 200 per session and 40 sessions recommended.

Is it that different from using an oxygen concentrator?

[Hawk]

It is Far, Far, different than using an oxygen concentrator.

Under hyperbaric oxygen, you are in a chamber that increases the air pressure 2 or 3 times the normal atmosphere, and your blood's capacity to carry oxygen is greatly increased.  It greatly increases wound healing and tissue regeneration, as well as other benefits.

[Asphyxia]

Well, since an oxygen concentrator is much more practical for the price i still wonder if its worth considering, also, an oxygen concentrator would be available to use daily for hours i suppose, maybe this can compensate for difference between a concentrator and the hyperbaric oxygen.

Any thoughts regarding that idea?

[Hawk]

For a healthy individual, your O2 is already at 92%-98% capacity.  increasing it a percent or two would make no difference.  Under normal atmospheric pressure, your blood can only absorb to 100% capacity.

Hyperbaric increases the capacity of blood to carry O2.  A concentrator has no effect on that.

Hyperbaric chambers became much publicized in my country (Portugal) following the unfortunate incident of a local celebrity, who almost lost his leg after injecting testosterone. Hyperbaric oxygen was extremely effective and today the person in question is fully recovered.

Very interesting, can you elaborate on this? What does that mean exactly?

Was the chamber prepared or adapted to the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction?

What were those sessions like and did you have to do? Were there any side effects?

Thanks in advance, this is fascinating. The efficacy rate mentioned on this study is impressive, higher than oral meds and much better than the controversial shockwave treatment.

Has anyone here who has had Erectile Dysfunction ever actually recover their sexual function?
