Dr. Fagin’s erection rehabilitation program is made up of two components; (1) the use of Viagra (or another similar medication) and (2) the use of the Erecaid vacuum device. This combined therapy has been specifically designed to take advantage of both active and passive rejuvenation of your erectile tissue.

Part (1) Viagra 100mg will be prescribed and should be taken every other evening on an empty stomach just before bedtime. The reason for this is that during your sleep cycle your brain stimulates nighttime erections. Immediately after surgery it is unlikely that you will have rigid nighttime erections, however, taking Viagra at night on an empty stomach allows for improved blood flow to the penis during these stimulation periods.

This improved blood flow has been shown to have some significant benefits to the recovery of your sexual function. Specifically, following this regimen for 6 months has been proven to reduce scarring in your erectile tissues and retain the smooth muscle necessary for erections to occur. Four weeks after surgery you will have healed up enough to attempt sexual stimulation. Although many patients are able to achieve erections satisfactory for sexual activity and climax this early after surgery, seeing “some action” at this point is your goal and is expected to improve over the next 6-12 months. The use of Viagra is the “active” part of your rehabilitation regimen because it involves your body actively pumping good oxygenated blood to your penis.

Most insurance companies only allow for 8 pills of Viagra a month. However, Dr. Fagin’s regimen requires 15 pills per month. To assist you in making up the difference, Dr. Fagin has supplied you with the additional 7 pills you need per month for the first 3 months of your recovery. This has been provided at no cost to you to and is our way of helping you get on the right path for recovery.
