Erectile Dysfunction does not just mean simply being unable to achieve an erection despite the desire or stimuli. There are several conditions that we are all likely to experience at some point in our lives which fall under the umbrella of Erectile Dysfunction (or ED as we will call it). It is not something to be embarrassed about. You can have a good night, a few too many beers and at the end of the night - BOOM - Erectile Dysfunction sets in at the most inopportune time! It has happened to every guy almost, c'mon! As the world's cumulative medical knowledge has progressed in recent years, that ugly term, impotence, has fallen out of fashion, replaced by the more descriptive and accurate phrase Erectile Dysfunction. No one should be called "impotent". A man is simply suffering from a problem, likely to be of temporary duration and a fixable problem at that. Impotent is only used now in legal systems, as a grounds for divorce, leftover from earlier times when the Medical Community was less pro-active about this common malady. For a long time, it was a problem rarely discussed. Fortunately for us those days are over. Technically, ED is defined as the inability to maintain or sustain an erection, at least not an erection sufficient to complete a satisfactory sex act. And that dissatisfaction is felt by both the male and his partner. Erectile Dysfunction may be just temporary, it may be frequent or ED can be a symptom of a bigger problem. Whatever the cause, with so many different ways today to cure ED there is no longer any need to ignore it, hoping it will go away. If you are "fine" the next time you engage in sexual intercourse, that does not mean that subsequent encounters will not end in disappointment as a result of Erectile Dysfunction. Why have this worry hanging over your head when ED may well be treatable? Why have your male member hanging limp and pointing toward the ground when a sexual opportunity presents itself when there is a likely cure for this common problem available? The real danger ED presents to a man is a poorer quality of life. This in turn affects his self-esteem and relationships with family, friends, co-workers, and most obviously sexual partners. Word does get around a bit, maybe not to all those people, but you never know who beyond your sexual partner heard that you were a dud in bed. Women do talk to each other about this sort of thing. Sounds horrible, right? Sounds worse than it actually is, considering the frequency that men report instances of Erectile Dysfunction. A typical scenario occurs with a wife or sexual partner when sex becomes an act that the man is apprehensive about, rather than eager and ready-to-go, fearing failure in bed. When the sex act becomes something other than joyous and
fun, there is that uneasy silence as you watch couples on television or in
movies having a great time at it, sex jokes by comedians become something you
are reluctant to laugh at. The worst of course are ED jokes and those
commercials shown constantly for the prescription remedies for Erectile
Dysfunction. Stone cold silence as the two of you watch or hear something in the
media talking about either
happy sex or that dreaded word "Erectile Dysfunction". Instead of hearing "That was great!" from your partner as you both climax simultaneously, you hear "It's alright, honey, I understand....." Of course, that is if your partner is sympathetic to your plight. Likely to be the case with a long-time spouse, but a new girlfriend may not be quite as understanding. In fact, even the most understanding partner will grow frustrated as time goes by with no resolution. She may wonder if it is something that she is doing wrong! Your partner may eventually become so frustrated that the relationship sours, perhaps ends permanently. That is not fair to a loving spouse or partner. It is also not fair to you, especially when a cure may be right on this page! The facts are that Erectile Dysfunction affects most men at one time or another in their life and the chance of occurrence only grows with age. A 1999 survey conducted by the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) reported that 22 out of every 1000 men sought help for ED. That is 2% of the population! However, almost 50% of men between the ages of 40 and 70 experience difficulties getting or maintaining an erection. Remember ED is not confined to complete erection failure. Many men can get halfway there, but either cannot maintain the erection throughout the sexual act or suffer throughout the act with a weak erection. Also you can be under 40 years of age too and have the misfortune of suffering from ED and it does not mean that you have done something wrong. The first step toward a cure is determining if the dysfunction is caused by physical or emotional issues. The only way to test if the problem is physical or psychological is by excluding physical diseases that may be at fault. Some cases of long-term erection difficulties are caused by some sort of physical ailment. The most common are vascular disease, which is the hardening of arteries, certain kinds of prescription drugs, and fatigue. These are just a few examples though in a long list. In these cases, blood is unable to surge or remain in the penis. While approximately 70% of ED cases are physiological, the other 30% are caused by psychological factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, stress, depression and loss of self-worth, general lack of confidence and fatigue. This sort of dysfunction starts with the brain. With the causes so varied, it is highly advisable to see your Doctor for a general checkup. For that matter, any man over 30 should be getting at least yearly medical checkups whether they have physical symptoms of any sort or not. It saves lives. The difficulty may be either long-lasting or temporary. Either way,
it is an embarrassing problem that can be easily avoided in the future. There are many different methods to cure
ED, medical and non-medical. It is also important to remember that any sort of treatment should be used in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle.
A poor diet, excessive consumption of alcohol and smoking play a part in ED too. Medication prescribed by a doctor is common, either oral or injected directly into the penis. Surgery is another method, but is expensive with a long recuperation period and no guarantee of success. Surgery involves prosthetic implants, or a pump inserted into the genital area that the male would have to pump before sexual intercourse. Therapy, penis pumps, and herbal supplements are three non-pharmaceutical methods of treating ED. Therapy, with a registered sex therapist or other mental health professional, is quite effective in cases of psychological-caused ED, but not in physical cases. Therapy tends to be a long process, and some men are embarrassed to talk at length, if at all, about their sexual problems. Also sex therapists are not like dentists with a shingle hanging out on every corner. In fact you are not very likely to find a sex therapist in most small towns or rural areas. For that matter, having lived in New York City over 30 years, I did not once recall hearing of a sex therapist's office. Penis pumps are used by inserting the penis into a tube and using a pump until erection is achieved, at which point a ring is rolled onto the base of the penis to keep the erection hard. It works, but the pump must be used each time before intercourse and does not address the real problem, only acting as a temporary fix. It is also not very romantic and should only be used for cases where no other remedy has a chance of working. Such cases represent the minority of ED reports. A safe and easy method used for eons to treat ED are herbal supplements, like VigRX Plus™. These supplements are made from organically grown plants chosen for their aphrodisiac properly that have been used for thousands of years in different parts of the world. Herbal sex supplements have surely withstood the test of time. Also, herbal supplements are completely free of side effects and deliver quick results. The user can stop the treatment at any time with no adverse effects. Herbal supplements not only address the physical, but the psychological factors as well, as it increases male libido and self-confidence. This webmaster has not been well physically for the last
several years. After an extended bout with illness, I found that I was
recuperating, but Well, eventually I opted for asking for the prescription drug Levitra™ (tadalafil) from my Doctor. Levitra™ is one of the 3 well-known prescription medications that can help treat ED. The others are Viagra™ as we mentioned and Cialis™. I chose Levitra™ because it supposedly stays active in your system for up to 16 hours after you take it and I was not sure when I would feel well enough to get back on the horse again. One hour after I took it, I fell asleep for several hours. This was before the sex act -- normally guys roll over and sleep afterward! So sex never happened that evening as it was the middle of the night when I woke up. That opportunity was blown! I never did bother with Levitra™ again. In fact, the expired bottle is here in the house somewhere. Just because Levitra™ did not work out for me does not mean it will not be successful for other men, I must add. Oddly, by then I had already been working for a few years with the company that sells VigRX Plus™ when this happened and my wife and I use and swear by a several of SellHealth's products. I cannot explain too well why I did not try a product like VigRX Plus™ which is endorsed by Doctors and other esteemed individuals in the Medical Community. VigRX Plus™ had not been formulated yet, only the original VigRX and VigRX Oil™ had been created then. I guess I figured that somehow my situation was different and I was not like other guys - not the case! In any event, my next step was to send for some VigRX Oil™ but they both had already proven themselves as the best male sex enhancers on the market at that time. In any case, for me, VigRX Oil™ has been part of the bedroom regimen ever since. Problem solved, nice hard erection immediately and that erection stayed hard and powerful longer than I had ever experienced before. I could safely use the VigRX whenever I wanted. Boy, I was a dope before I tried a VigRX product. I promise you this is a true story. I talk about the benefits I have gained from VigRX and other SellHealth products on various sites that we run. While I am an "oil" fan myself, that is just my preference. I would highly recommend SellHealth's newest product, VigRX Plus™ as it has 3 new ingredients that make it the best male sexual enhancer to date. I am not the only one singing the praises of VigRX Plus™. For one, VigRX Plus™ sells like wildfire, especially with repeat customers. VigRX Plus Orders come in from throughout the world. Its merits have been proven by various, controlled scientific studies. VigRX has historically been the favorite of adult film stars who need to perform on command. And VigRX Plus™ is very successful in treating Erectile Dysfunction and actually giving you more sexual health and stamina that you had before! Keep in mind that it is important to talk to your doctor before undergoing any sort of treatment. Serious physical causes of ED must be ruled out first. |
Instead of being able to share an inside joke about sex with your partner, there
is stony silence when sexual topics are being discussed.
Looking and feeling your best contributes greatly to a self-confidence that will
carry over into the bedroom.
Medications like Viagra™ have helped
millions of men throughout the world. However, such prescription medications
also have adverse side effects including nausea and dizziness and are incompatible with certain medications. They must be taken about an hour before sex is possible.
Most important, you must be examined by your Doctor who may then prescribe a
medication like Viagra™ before treatment can begin.
