Erectile dysfunction, better known as “ED,” is something all men have to pay special attention to. Those suffering from chronic ED often cannot sustain or even attain erection while having a satisfactory sex life. Some of the issues related to ED are Ejaculatory dysfunction or problems with ejaculation and achieving orgasm. Another is having a very low level of libido where the man lacks sexual desire.
Causes of “ED”
There are a few differences in how severe ED affects different people. For some, they may be unable to attain an erection. Others have the inconsistent capability to achieve an erection, or often, they can reach one but cannot sustain it during long sexual encounters. The severity and variation of how one is affected by ED make it quite challenging to estimate. Most men are also naturally not willing to talk openly about these types of issues to their doctors because they feel embarrassed, thus leaving the sickness under-diagnosed or undiagnosed at all.[1]
While “ED” erectile dysfunction can happen at any age, it’s usually uncommon amongst young males but much more common within the late 30’s & 40’s and especially in the elderly populations. By the age of 40, most males have experienced erectile dysfunction at least a few times. Total impotence increases from 8% of males over 42 to 25% of all males 65 years and older. Population research discovered that some degree of ED occurred in 29% of males between ages 40-55, and in 60% of males between ages 65-80.
70% of all “ED” cases are directly attributed to one of the following underlying conditions:
- Diabetes Type 1 & 2
- Chronic Alcoholism
- Diabetic Nephropathy
- Obesity
- Neurological Injury
- Cardiovascular Disease
- Heart Disease
- Ataxia
- Kidney Disease
- COPD
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Atherosclerosis
Stem Cell Therapy for Erectile Dysfunction
The Regen Center of Thailand provides the most effective and permanent treatment for Erectile Dysfunction [2]. Our doctors use enhanced Mesenchymal (MSC+) Stem Cells to permanently fix the lack of appropriate blood circulation by creating new blood vessels via Angiogenesis. The Angiogenesis process is very similar to stem cell treatment for patients suffering from peripheral neuropathy, heart conditions like cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure (CHF), coronary artery disease, and other heart diseases such as Peripheral Vascular Disease (PAD)—our Safe and Effective Cell treatment for restoring your peak Erectile function. Medical data has proven that a combination program using Hematopoietic MSC stem cells treatment delivered locally into the penis In Combination with intravenous implantation is highly effective for immediate and long-term improvements in libido, appetite, blood flow, sleep quality & overall well-being. The effects of Cell Therapy for ED are ongoing, lasting, and long-term.[3]
The results received from stem cell therapy for ED are safe from the risk of side effects since they use the patient’s own stem cells. Adipose or “fat” derived stem cells “ADSC” are usually found near small blood vessels. The marker in blood known as “CD34+” has been found in nearly 60% of peri-vascular areas and proves the existence of Stem Cells. Their purpose and use in our ED treatment are to help create new blood vessels and pathways to allow proper blood flow for a normal erection. [4]
TREATMENT PRECAUTION
ED is typically a side effect or symptom of a more severe underlying condition such as Diabetes or Heart Condition. Please note that we must treat the root cause to fix ED. Treatments can be combined permanently. However, we will first focus on the primary medical threat, followed by ED. All interested men must be clinically diagnosed with ED by a Urologist.ED Treatment Overview – 2024
Number of Stem Cell Infusions: 2-8 Enriched Mesenchymal UC-MSC+ stem cells and growth factors (proteins) that stimulate cell growth, differentiation, and tissue regeneration. In the context of ED, they support UC-MSC+ cells and directly promote tissue repair and vascularization. Common growth factors the Regeneration Center uses in treatments include Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF), Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF), Transforming Growth Factor-Beta (TGF-β), Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF), Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF)
Types of Stem Cells Used in Treatment and Deliver Method: Enhanced Mesenchymal Stem Cells (UC-MSC+). Our treatment does not require dangerous surgeries to extract cells, and the cells are usually delivered via intravenous drip and direct injection into the corpus cavernosum in a private clinical setting.
Post-Treatment Rehabilitation: Physical Rehabilitation is not required for this treatment. Medical visas and accommodations for an extended stay can also be included upon request.
Cost to Treat Penile Dysfunction Using Stem Cells
Stem Cell Transplants for Erectile Dysfunction will require a minimum of 10-14 days in Thailand. The costs for treating ED with Stem Cells depend on the cause of the underlying ED. To pre-qualify and get fixed prices, our doctors must conduct a complete medical evaluation in person or online using your recent clinical diagnosis for ED and any recent and relevant medical documentation. To begin the medical review process for our multi-stage treatment protocol, please prepare your medical records and contact us today.
