NCT07385222

Brief Summary

This is a single-center, prospective interventional study comparing pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) alone versus PFMT combined with extracorporeal magnetic innervation (ExMI) in men with premature ejaculation (PE). The objective was to determine whether adding ExMI to standard PFMT improves pelvic floor function and patient-reported sexual outcomes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Pelvic floor muscle displacement distance (mm) on real-time suprapubic ultrasonography

    Change from baseline in cranio-caudal displacement during standardized contraction.

    Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8 (post-intervention)

  • Pelvic floor muscle endurance (seconds) on real-time suprapubic ultrasonography

    Change from baseline in sustained contraction time under standardized instruction.

    Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool

    Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8

  • Male Sexual Function Inventory-Short Form

    Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8

  • International Index of Erectile Function

    Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8

  • World Health Organization Quality-of-Life Scale-BREF

    Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8

  • Global Perceived Effect Scale
