Penile Shockwave Therapy

For Erectile Dysfunction, Peyronie’s Disease & Chronic Perineal Pain

Low-Intensity Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (Li-ESWT) is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment we offer for men experiencing erectile dysfunction, penile curvature (Peyronie’s disease), and chronic pelvic or perineal pain. At Male Sexual Health Clinic in Lucknow, we use advanced technology and globally accepted protocols to restore natural function without pills or surgery.

How Shockwave Therapy Works

Shockwave devices emit pulsed acoustic energy that penetrates penile and perineal tissues, triggering:

  • Angiogenesis – Formation of new blood vessels, improving blood flow.

  • Growth Factor Activation – Encouraging collagen and tissue repair.

  • Stem Cell Recruitment – Enhancing natural healing capacity.

  • Plaque Softening – In Peyronie’s disease, helps reduce fibrous buildup.

  • Neuromodulation – Eases chronic pain in the pelvic region.

Applications and Protocols

Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

  • Ideal for: Vasculogenic ED (blood-flow related), especially mild to moderate cases.

  • Protocol: 6-9 sessions over 6 to 9 weeks (1 per week), 15–20 minutes each.

  • Target Areas: Penile shaft, crura (base), and perineum.

  • Benefits:

    • Enhanced morning/spontaneous erections

    • Improved response to sexual stimulation

    • Possible reduced need for Viagra or similar meds

  • Long-Term Effect: Benefits can last 2+ years; annual touch-up sessions can extend results.

Peyronie’s Disease

  • Protocol: 4-6 sessions targeting the penile plaque area.

  • Primary Aim: Pain relief and plaque softening.

  • Expected Outcome:

    • Marked reduction in penile pain (especially during erection)

    • Slight to moderate improvement in curvature (variable)

  • Often Combined With: PRP injections or traction therapy for better outcomes.

Chronic Pelvic or Perineal Pain

  • Indications: CPPS (chronic prostatitis), post-ejaculatory pain, pelvic floor dysfunction.

  • Mechanism: Relieves muscle tightness, reduces inflammation, enhances microcirculation.

  • Ideal for: Men with pain unresponsive to medications, stretching, or diet.

Advantages of Li-ESWT

  • Non-Invasive: No incisions, needles, or implants.

  • No Downtime: Resume daily activity immediately.

  • Safe and Painless: Mild tapping/tingling; no anesthesia required.

  • Natural Regeneration: Fixes root causes, not just symptoms.

  • Versatile: Can be part of ED recovery, Peyronie’s management, or pelvic pain relief.

Who is a Good Candidate?

  • Men with vasculogenic ED or medication intolerance.

  • Men with Peyronie’s pain or early curvature not needing surgery.

  • Men with chronic pelvic pain unrelieved by conventional methods.

  • Individuals seeking natural performance enhancement or “preventive” sexual vitality.

We evaluate every case with history, physical exam, and penile Doppler ultrasound if needed to ensure treatment is appropriate.

FAQs – Shockwave Therapy

Is this the same as shockwaves used for kidney stones?

  • No. ED shockwaves are low-intensity, therapeutic pulses that stimulate repair, unlike high-energy lithotripsy waves used to crush stones.

When will I see improvement?

  • Early effects (like stronger morning erections) may appear within 2–3 weeks.

  • Peak benefits often occur 6–12 weeks post-therapy as new vessels form.

  • It is not an instant fix like Viagra but builds sustained improvement.

Is it safe post-prostatectomy or with a penile implant?

  • Post-surgery ED: Can assist in nerve recovery when combined with PRP.

  • Penile implant: Shockwave is not effective on implant mechanics but might preserve surrounding tissue health.

  • Pelvic pain after surgery: Yes, it helps reduce muscle-related discomfort.

Will it straighten my penis in Peyronie’s?

  • Primarily reduces pain and plaque hardness.

  • Curvature may improve 10–20%, depending on severity.

  • For significant curvature, we recommend combined therapies (e.g., traction, PRP, injections).

Is it approved and reliable?

  • Yes. While still considered off-label in some countries, clinical trials worldwide show consistent success, especially in Europe and North America. We follow evidence-backed protocols and transparently discuss costs and expectations.
