What is a Vacuum Penis Pump?

A vacuum penis pump is a device used to help men achieve and maintain an erection. It’s often recommended for men experiencing erectile dysfunction (ED) or for treatment of Peyronie’s disease, a condition that causes curvature of the penis. The pump works by creating a vacuum around the penis, drawing blood into the area and helping to create a firm erection.

Benefits of Using a Vacuum Penis Pump

• Helps achieve erections naturally without medication
• Improves blood flow to the penile tissue
• Rehab and therapeutic effect for Peyronie’s disease by stretching the penile tissue
• Can be used daily as part of a treatment protocol for ED and Peyronie’s

Step-by-Step Instructions for Using the Vacuum Penis Pump

Preparation:

• Ensure the device is clean and in good working condition.
• Apply a small amount of water-based lubricant to the base of the pump and your penis to create a good seal.

Create the Vacuum:

• Place the cylinder over your penis and press it against your body to create a tight seal.
• Slowly activate the pump mechanism to create a vacuum inside the cylinder, drawing blood into your penis.

Protocol for Erectile Dysfunction:

• Achieve an Erection: Continue pumping until you reach a firm erection.
• 5-Second Hold and Release:
  • Maintain the vacuum for 5 seconds once a normal erection is achieved.
  • Release the vacuum for 5 seconds to allow blood flow to return to normal.
• Repeat: Continue the cycle of 5-second holds and releases, repeating 10-20 times in one session.
• Frequency: Perform this exercise once daily to support improved erections over time.

Protocol for Peyronie’s Disease:

• Achieve an Erection: Pump until you reach a firm erection.
• 15-Second Hold and 5-Second Release:
  • Maintain the vacuum for 15 seconds.
  • Release the vacuum for 5 seconds.
• Repeat: Complete 10-15 cycles of 15-second holds and 5-second releases.
• Frequency: Use the pump once daily as part of your therapy for Peyronie’s.

After the Session:

• Release the vacuum completely and remove the device.
• Clean the pump thoroughly according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Tips for Effective and Safe Use

• Avoid Over-Pumping: Excessive vacuum pressure can cause discomfort and bruising. Pump slowly and stop once a firm erection is reached.
• Stay Consistent: Using the pump daily as part of your treatment routine can lead to better results over time.
• Watch for Side Effects: Some mild side effects like temporary redness or discomfort are normal. Stop using the device if you experience pain or any severe side effects, and consult your doctor.
• Use as Directed: Follow the above protocols for ED and Peyronie’s specifically. Avoid longer hold times unless instructed by a healthcare professional.

When to Consult a Healthcare Professional

• If you have questions or concerns about your condition or treatment.
• If you experience persistent pain, bruising, or any adverse effects.
• If you have specific concerns about whether a vacuum pump is right for you.

Note: The vacuum penis pump is a safe and effective treatment option for many men but should be used responsibly and under the guidance of a healthcare provider.
