Abstract:Objective:The sex therapy is not yet popularized at present. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the combination of the improved sex therapy and oral sildenafil on erectile dysfunction (ED). Methods:A total of 3 130 Uigur cases of ED received in Xinjiang Bogda Hospital were divided into a control group ( n = 625 ) and a trial group (n = 2 505),the former treated with oral sildenafil alone,and the latter by the combination of the improved genital therapy and sildenafil,both for 3 months and fol lowed up at 6 and 12 months after the treatment. The therapeutic effects were evaluated and compared using IIEF-5. Result:. The IIEF-5 scores of the control group were 12. 80 ±3. 76 and 18. 10 ±2. 61 before and after the treatment,and 17. 35 ±2. 73 and 16.64 ±2.63 at 6 and 12 months,respectively,while those of the trial group were 12.73 ±3.52 and 19.06 ±4.07 before and after the treatment,and 19.86 ±2.42 and 20.47 ±2. 38 at 6 and 12 months,respectively,with statistically significant differences either between pre- and post-treatment ( P < 0.05 ) or between the control and trial groups at 6 and 12 months ( P < 0.05 ).Conclu sion :The combination of the improved sex therapy and oral sildenafil is superior to sildenafil alone in the treatment of ED,and its effi cacy is relatively stable at 12 months.
