Abstract
To explore the efficacy of sildenafil on erectile dysfunction (ED) of newlyweds, the author studied 60 outpatients within a month of marriage, who suffered from sexual intercourse (SI) failure caused by ED and showed no improvement after receiving sex education and psychological consultation. The patients were given oral sildenafil, 100 mg for the first and second times, 50 mg for the third and fourth times, no more than once every day, with a 1- to 3-day break between every two times. Four times of sildenafil administration formed one course of treatment. Sildenafil was taken 1 h before SI and was aided with adequate sexual stimulation. The rates of successful SI due to improved erection during and after a course of sildenafil treatment were 93.3% (56/60) and 85% (51/60), both P > 0.05. In the groups with one and more than one SI failure the successful SI rates after a sildenafil treatment course were 93.1% (27/29) and 77.4% (24/31), both P > 0.05. Oral sildenafil with psychological therapy in the treatment of ED of newlyweds proves to be effective in restoring the patients' sexual function and relieving their mental pressure or stress.
