More and more men are having shockwave therapy to fix their erectile dysfunction, either at a clinic or self-administered. This is a forum to for men to discuss what experiences they have had, what treatment they used, and what results they obtained. The goal is to get men to share their ideas, trials, successes and failures in order to help other men working to improve their mojo as well.

Re: Treatment Calculator
It's the same guy whose name is on this video:
I don't trust him, nor do I trust his calculator, tbh. None of the published research studies addressed the question of whether the factors in the calculator should alter the treatment plan. Most of the factors in the calculator are useful only for ruling out a patient for treatment.
The "calculator" suggests that a diabetic, overweight patient with hypertension with a low IIEF5 score who has had ED for a long time is a lost cause. In that sense, the result is consistent with studies. But playing with the variables yields suggested shocks per session in ranges of 4000 to 8000. This is an enormous variance and I would like to see the clinical evidence for it..

Re: Treatment Calculator
It look like it is what they use to determine how well people will respond to therapy. Obviously they don't want to treat people who don't get results. I'm not sure where they get their data that it is based on.
