Put the spark back in your love life with Vacurect

Erectile dysfunction, or impotence, is a sexual condition characterised by the inability to achieve or maintain an erection during stimulation.

During sexual stimulation, the brain transmits signals to the nerves in the penis. An erection occurs when blood is drawn into the spongy parts of the organ and retained there.

The main causes of erectile dysfunction are usually physical, such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, neurological issues, hormonal deficiencies, prostate cancer, ageing or the side effects of certain medications. Erectile dysfunction can also cause serious psychological problems, as it impacts relationships and the male self-esteem.

Luckily, there are numerous treatment options available for men with erection problems.

Vacuum therapy, which involves the use of a vacuum erection device like the Vacurect, is the simplest, most natural and least expensive solution for your erectile dysfunction.

How does it work?

By means of a natural pump action, the Vacurect works by creating a vacuum and thereby pulling the non-erect penis through a soft silicone tension ring into a tube. The vacuum inside the tube then causes blood to be drawn into the penis. Within minutes the penis fills with blood and becomes erect.

The Vacurect was approved as a medical device by die US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is available worldwide.

The vacuum tube is then released from the tension ring at the base of the penis that maintains the erection, sufficient for intercourse. After intercourse, the tension ring is simply removed to allow the blood to return to the body.

The Vacurect can be used multiple times, and unlike medication, you do not need a prescription to purchase one. It is a once-off cost and will last many years.

Penile rehabilitation

Recent research has proven that while vacuum devices were previously mainly used to create an erection for sexual intimacy, the Vacurect can also be successfully used for penile rehabilitation by diabetics and prostate cancer patients.

Regardless of the cause of the erection problems, damage and shrinkage of the penis can be reduced with penile rehabilitation. Regular use of the Vacurect increases the circulation of healthy blood to the penis and reduces the damage in this way. Just like any other form of exercise, it is a case of “if you do not use it, you lose it”.

Because the Vacurect creates a vacuum in a tube which draws blood into the penis and enhances arterial blood flow, the natural function of the penis is mimicked. Regular use of the Vacurect as an exercise apparatus, can help prevent fibrosis and shrinkage of the penis.

Penile rehabilitation is a natural and safe treatment for erectile problems and can be confidently used at home.

Erectile dysfunction doesn't need to be the end of your manhood. There are various treatments that can help solve this problem.

Prostate cancer

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and a radical prostatectomy is usually the first choice of treatment.

Because it may cause damage to the nerves and weakened blood flow to the penis, erectile dysfunction is a common side effect. Damaged nerves can take between eight and 18 months to heal and blood flow to the penis can also be affected. Besides erectile dysfunction, these changes can also lead to shrinkage of the penis.

By enhancing blood flow to the penis, penile rehabilitation can reduce the damage and shrinkage caused by a radical prostatectomy.

Diabetes

Approximately 35% to 75% of men with diabetes experience erection problems earlier than healthy men, due to issues caused by weakened blood flow to the penis. Medication for erection problems is also not suitable for diabetics with heart issues. With penis rehabilitation, diabetics can increase blood flow to the penis with a vacuum device. Vacuum therapy, or penile rehabilitation, is a natural, safe treatment for erection problems.

The Vacurect can be used with confidence, has minimal side effects and is the least invasive treatment for erection problems currently on the market.

It is a proudly South African product sold globally. It has been tested and approved by several South African universities, the Pretoria Urological Hospital and SA Institute of Sexology.

The product is approved as a medical device by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and carries the CE mark in Europe. More than 280 000 Vacurects have been sold worldwide.
