- PEMF for erectile dysfunction: Pelka RB, Jaenicke C, Gruenwald J. Universitat der Bundeswehr, Neubiberg/Munich, Germany. This double blind, placebo-controlled study assessed the efficacy of 3 weeks of PEMF for erectile dysfunction (ED). Twenty volunteers who suffered from ED or orgasmic disturbances were randomly assigned to either active treatment or placebo (n = 10 each). Efficacy was assessed in terms of intensity and duration of erection, general well-being, sexual activity, and warm sensation in the genital area. In the active-treatment group, all efficacy endpoints were significantly improved at study end (P < or = .01), with 80% reporting increases in intensity and duration of erection, frequency of genital warmth, and general well-being. The remaining 20%, who experienced minor improvements, were found to have an influenza-like infection after the study that may have influenced their results. Only 30% of the placebo group noted some improvement in their sexual activity; 70% had no change. No side effects were reported. PMID: 12008861 PubMed

Gorpinchenko: 'The Use of PEMF in Treating Sexual Disorders in Men,' Lik Sprava (3-4), March-April 1995, pp. 95-97. - This double blind placebo-controlled study has shown that PEMF has positive effects on blood flow in the penis in erectile sexual dysfunction. 38% of the patients were cured of their impotency and a definite improvement was observed in 42%.
- Gorpinchenko II. The effect of PEMF on the sexual function of 105 men presenting with sexual problems. A total of 96 sexological patients were examined in a placebo-controlled study. The PEMF beneficial effect was recordable in 70-80 % of the patients, that of placebo in 33 % men. It is suggested that augmentation of sexual activity is associated with an increase in cavernous blood flow. PMID: 8819933 PubMed
