Summary
This study tests whether an 8-week pelvic floor exercise program can improve erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation in men aged 25-45. Half of the 50 participants will do the exercises three times a week, while the other half receives standard medical care. The goal is to see if exercise can be an effective, drug-free treatment option.
