Ummm....we have not heard from one man that has been happy after spending lots of money on shockwave therapy.

I would not waste my $$$.

This is where RJ stands as of now regarding what select group of men may benefit.

Big difference between radial and shockwave let alone the types of devices/treatments being used by many of these run of the mill clinics.

He breaks it down in the presentation.

I sought out a focal shockwave provider. and did 6 sessions. I believe it helped but my ED was improving on it's own anyway (after discontinuation of finasteride) so I can't be certain it worked.
 
I have used LISWT twice: 10 sessions in 2020 and 5 sessions in January of this year with the type of machine described above that actually showed some results. I can honestly say that both times it helped my EQ over a 9-12 month period. Was it dramatic? No. But it definitely did help. Other factor: doctor is friend of mine and charged a below market price. I don't think I would have done it otherwise.

I consider shockwave a form of physical therapy and an adjunct to all of the other ways to improve ED (hormones, NO boosters, Cialis etc). I don't think it should be promoted as a cure all (which it is in many clinics).

There, you have heard from a couple of guys that had perceived benefits.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
