Do you have an enlarged prostate (BPH) and/or erectile dysfunction (ED)? Has your doctor told you that drugs and surgery are your only options?
What if I told you that there is a therapy that has been shown in recent studies to reduce the symptoms of BPH and ED in as little as 3 weeks? Would you be interested?
This therapy is called Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy.

NEW STUDIES SHOW IMPROVEMENT WITH PEMF THERAPY AND BPH
There have been two double blind, placebo controlled studies this year (2014) on PEMF therapy and BPH. One was a human study and the other was an animal study, with both showing significant reductions in BPH symptoms.
FACTS ABOUT PEMF THERAPY
– Has been used in Europe for over 30 years.
– Cleared by the FDA for multiple conditions.
– Studied extensively by NASA.
– Has over 2,000 double blind, placebo controlled studies.
HUMAN MODEL
In the human study, half of the patients with BPH, ages 68-78 years old were treated with medication for at least 4 weeks, and another group was treated with PEMFs (a high intensity ion magnetic inductor) for 2 weeks, for 30 minutes daily, 5 consecutive days per week. Patients of both groups were evaluated before and after drug and PEMF treatment and these were the results – there was a significant decrease of prostate size, residual urine and an increase in urine flow rate in the PEMF treated patients – and – there was also a significant improvement in clinical symptoms in patients of the electromagnetic group. Follow-up of the PEMF treated patients for one year revealed that results obtained by PEMF treatment are still maintained.
STUDY ON ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION
This double blind, placebo-controlled study assessed the efficacy of 3 weeks of pulsing magnetic-field therapy for erectile dysfunction (ED). In the active-treatment group, all efficacy endpoints were significantly improved at study end (P < or = .01), with 80% reporting increases in intensity and duration of erection, frequency of genital warmth, and general well-being. Only 30% of the placebo group noted some improvement in their sexual activity; 70% had no change. No side effects were reported.
HISTORY OF PEMF
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy has been used in European countries for over 30 years but has only recently been introduced here in the United States, which is why most doctors have never heard of it.
HOW IT WORKS
Electromagnetic Field therapy (PEMF) uses low frequency magnetic waves to decrease inflammation and increase circulation – the underlying causes of both BPH and ED.
WHAT IS A PEMF TERAPY SESSION LIKE?
PEMF therapy is simple. You sit in a chair for 30-45 minutes with a couple of pads in your lap. There is no pain or discomfort. Most men report a light tapping sensation around their pubic area.
NO DRUGS, NO SUPPLEMENTS,
NO DIETARY CHANGES AND NO SURGERY
ADDITIONAL BENEFITS
The FDA has cleared PEMF therapy for post-operative pain and edema and non-union fractures.
AN ALTERNATIVE TO DRUGS AND SURGERY
While PEMF therapy may not work for everyone, it appears to be a viable alternative to drugs and surgery.
Think about it – what if you could get and maintain and erection, urinate without straining, starting, stopping and dribbling, empty your bladder and sleep though the night after just 3 weeks of PEMF therapy?
Wouldn’t that be a more attractive option than either drugs or surgery, which come with an assortment of potential side-effects?
