The main objectives of the programming with the XSignal device will be to influence the sexual satisfaction of the participants.
As secondary objectives, the effectiveness of the XSignal device during a defined treatment period will be analyzed in terms of quality of life, pain, stress, anxiety, sexual function, sleep quality, cortisol, heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and body temperature of the same subjects, compared with a placebo group, observing the long-term influence of the results.
Considering the objectives set: In the first phase, the directing electrode will be located at C6-C7 to generate a systemic and general effect on the organism, with program 1, program 2, program 7, and program 8. In the second phase, the directing electrode will be placed at the abdominal level in the area of the mesenteric plexus to influence the sympathetic innervation of the viscera. In the third phase, the directing electrode is located at S2-S3 to concentrate the action of the therapy on the sacral parasympathetic plexus,. In this way, both the sympathetic and parasympathetic innervation of the main sexual organs are covered through the sympathetic paravertebral ganglia and the sacral plexus.

| Intervention | Experimental | Device: Non-Invasive Neuromodulation (NESA) | T The total number of sessions to be conducted for each patient will be 10 sessions, spread over 5 weeks, which means a frequency of twice a week. Each NESA microcurrent session will last 60 minutes. A maximum time of 15 minutes will be allowed for connecting the patient at the beginning and for removing the device at the end. During the 10 sessions of the treatment, the programming will evolve to optimize the response. The directing electrode will be located throughout the treatment between the spinous processes of C6 and C7 to act generally on the individual, and in later sessions, the electrode will be placed in the abdominal area to cover the hypogastric plexus and at S2-S3 to influence the sacral plexus. The intensity will be set to Low (3 volts) in all sessions, following the Arndt-Schulz law. The other device parameters range between 100-900 microamperes and between 1.14 and 14.29 hertz, and are preset by each program |
