Experimental Treatment
Group I: TENS penile nerve stimulation groupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The electrode pads of the transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS 7000) will be placed at the base of the penis (and perineum). Participants will be able to use the device prior to sexual activity (immediately before sexual encounter for 10 minutes or daily for up to 14 days prior) to "prime" their system or during sexual activity. Each participant will use the device these three separate ways for 6 weeks each (total of 18 weeks of use).
