ABSTRACT
The EROS therapy device is FDA-approved for the treatment of women with sexual dysfunction and has been shown to improve sexual function and satisfaction. The aim of this study was to obtain objective information regarding the ability of the EROS Therapy device to induce clitoral and corpus spongiosum volumetric and hemodynamic changes following therapeutic use in women with sexual arousal disorder. Seven patients with sexual arousal disorder formed the study population. All seven subjects met inclusion and exclusion criteria, including having normal hormonal values at the time of the study. All seven subjects were able to comfortably operate the device. All seven reported either slight-to-moderate pleasure or orgasm at home with the device. We observed no adverse events. This study shows that EROS therapy is associated with significant increases in clitoral and corpus spongiosum diameter as well as with clitoral and corpus spongiosum peak systolic and end-diastolic velocity values.
