67 years old finally better in bed

Every time Daniel has sex with his wife, the erection still doesn’t work. However, the difficult situation improved. Above all, the retired man, who wants to remain anonymous, says that the doubts and stress before and during sex are reduced.

The Zurich native has been using the regimen app for almost a year that promises to help men with erectile dysfunction. Daniel’s wife came across the digital therapy program when she read an article about it in a magazine. And the woman, who works in the field of medicine, suggested to her husband to try the application.

“The erection has improved a lot since then,” she confirms. And he adds: “But not every time my wife and I have sex, my penis is always hard.”

Better erection value

Practice can prove that healing isn’t just a feeling. This prompts Daniel to regularly fill out a standardized test questionnaire to find out the erection value. “International Index of Erectile Function” was developed based on scientific data, the scale ranges from 5 to 25. Daniel hit a low of just 5 for the first time in December 2021, today he’s 12 to 13.

The regime’s founder, Max Kersting, says of Daniel’s progress: “They’re tremendous and impressive.” The young entrepreneur can well understand Daniel’s story: he himself suffered from severe erectile dysfunction at the age of 20. However, over the years, the 34-year-old says that he has managed to solve his sexual problems completely. He used his personal experience to develop the app together with doctors and scientists. “We are very proud that a few thousand people like Daniel can improve their erections over the long term.”

Training with vacuum pump

Daniel trains with the app almost every day, even while traveling. Always right after waking up in the morning and before breakfast. 15 minutes, 20 minutes. “For example, it’s about strengthening my abs with gymnastic exercises,” says Daniel. There are also breathing and relaxation exercises.

But Daniel also needs to train his penis. With vacuum pump and masturbation. “My wife isn’t very happy about it, she finds it a bit disgusting. But then I tell him it’s important. Because the muscles and blood vessels in the penis need to be activated, strengthened and then kept in shape.”

Reduced the effect of the pill

For most of his adult life, Daniel struggled with erectile dysfunction. “I’ve always been an optimist and at the age of 20 I always told myself that the next time would be better.” Sometimes that was the case. When the erection pill arrived, she took it to help. He still needs it today. “But the effect wore off over time. It is also very costly. And health insurance companies don’t cover anything if men have sexual problems.”

What also helps Daniel is the information provided by the Regimen app. More help on the function of the penis, background on erectile dysfunction and also nutrition, for example. “Who knows if diet affects erections?” he asks. “I’ve changed my diet in recent months: less fatty meat, but more vegetables and salads. And no more butter on the morning bread.”

Obesity as the main factor

The purpose of regimen practice is for men to approach their erection problems holistically, as Max Kersting says, as Daniel does. And, if possible, adapt their lifestyle to live healthier. One of the main factors of erectile dysfunction is obesity. And erectile dysfunction often points to other health problems in the cardiovascular system. “That’s why it’s important to get a checkup from a doctor in a situation like this.”
