Effects of intensive lifestyle changes on erectile dysfunction in men.
INTRODUCTION Limited data are available supporting the notion that treatment of lifestyle risk factors may improve erectile dysfunction ( ED ) . AIM In the present study , we analyzed the effect of a program of changing in lifestyle design ed to improve erectile function  in subjects with ED or at increasing risk for ED . METHODS Men were identified in our data base of subjects participating in r and omized controlled trials evaluating the effect of lifestyle changes . A total of 209 subjects were r and omly assigned to one of the two treatment groups . The 104 men r and omly assigned to the intervention program received detailed advice about how to reduce body weight , improve quality of diet , and increase physical activity .  The 105 subjects in the control  group were given general information about healthy food choices and general guidance on increasing their level of physical activity . MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Changes in erectile function score ( International Index of Erectile Function-5 [ IIEF-5 ] ; items 5 , 15 , 4 , 2 , and 7 from the full-scale IIEF-15 ) and dependence of the restoration of erectile function on the changes in lifestyle that were achieved . RESULTS Erectile function score improved in the intervention group . At baseline , 35 subjects in the intervention group and 38 subjects in the control group had normal erectile function ( 34 % and 36 % , respectively ) . After 2 years , these figures were 58 subjects in the intervention group and 40 subjects in the control group , respectively ( 56 % and 38 % , P = 0.015 ) . There was a strong correlation between the success score and restoration of erectile function . CONCLUSIONS It is possible to achieve an improvement of erectile function  in men at risk by means of nonpharmacological intervention aim ing at weight loss and increasing physical activity
