Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
AIM: To examine the treatment efficacy of herbal composition (HC) Green Love in men with erectile dysfunction (ED). METHODS: A total of 25 patients presenting mild or mild to moderate ED were enrolled in a prospective study in which the efficacies of HC was compared to the status of ED before the use. The patients received 30 ml of HC. IIEF-5-score RESULTS: The five-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) score after the treatment was significantly higher in the HC group compared with that before the treatment (from 15.0 +/- 4.8 to 21.8 +/- 2.7, P < 0.0001). In the HC group, patients reported improved erection, significant in the global efficacy question (P < 0.0001). Scores on questions 2 (rigidity), 3 (penetration), 4 and 5 (maintenance), were significantly higher for HC than those in controls when those questions were answered after 2 days of each treatment (P < 0.0001). When the score in the HC group was compared to prior to treatment, there was a significant improvement in total score (IIEF-5 score) especially in questions 3 and 5 for the HC-treated group (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Our data show that HC can be an effective alternative to more invasive approaches for treating mild to moderate male ED.
