There have been repeated questions and statements over time about using drugs for erectile dysfunction to enhance sexual performance. Read this carefully: If you are capable of erection, the best thing that can result from using these drugs is nothing! The worst thing that can happen is experiencing the side-effects with no improved sexual function. The side effects are uncommon but you really do not want them. Even temporary blindness is bad news and priapism (can't get it down) requires a trip to the emergency room.
All three commonly prescribed drugs use chemicals that work the same way. They assist the small valves that allow blood into the two penis sacks to keep blood in there. Erection is nothing but a blood filled penis. You may have noticed that as you approach orgasm, the head engorges and turns purple.
There is much more to sexual fatigue than helping these two little valves work and if you are worn out, no drug is going to make you perform like a rabbit. Other health factors are greater causes of reduced performance: Smoking, overweight, too little exercise and not enough sleep are all major causes of sexual lethargy. Alcohol is the most common sexual suppressant in use. In some cases, the drinking is to avoid sex and in some cases to overcome not having sex. In either case, alcohol reduces sexual competency and desire. Diabetes, so common among the overweight, is a penis killer--at least an erection killer.
The ED drugs do not enhance the performance of those who do not need them. Those who do, please do use them; they do work. Do not develop unrealistic expectations. Even the ads for one say "UP TO X hours." That is "up to" not a guarantee that it WILL. Some men adapt to one of these drugs and others prefer one of the other two. A fifty year old should not expect to be as hard as he was in his twenties. The erection will not last as long as it once did. Like many drugs, these do not cure anything; they simply compensate for a weakness in the body. They are not magic bullets to keep you going more. If you are capable of three orgasms in an evening without the drugs, you will be capable of three orgasms with the drugs. You will be no stiffer or longer lasting. Those sites purporting to make you a real stud with these drugs are simply marketing. Those of you who wish to flame me are using anecdotal evidence - much of which reports a placebo effect. The clinical studies are on my side.
These are not drugs to be played with; they are helpers to keep some men functioning longer and they all have the warning that they are only for men healthy enough to have sex.
well hopefully that will shut a lot of people up me personally would go as far as calling the random marketers of such drugs that state absurd things liars, cheats, fraudsters, and warranting of jail or worse.
So are there any drugs that do increase a guys performance. Such as reducing the "recovery time" between erections or the number of erections a man can get?
This has been a problem in the past with a guy I was with...he just couldn't keep up with my sexual appeitite.
There are no magical pills or potions to do that. Physical fitness, decent diet and adequate rest are all I could suggest.
Some of them are good. My husband uses Extagen and never noticed side effects. Sometimes a drug is the only thing which can help, but I agree: be careful...
My DH sometimes uses Extagen and says it is the best drug he has tried.
so I am with a guy who has MS. He is only 30, but he is getting very frustrated, because he can get hard, most of the time (takes cialis, when he cant), but cannot orgasim.
He gets frustrated that he can't get off with me and he can't get off very often on his own.
I want to help him out....any suggestions?
I'm pretty sure my ED problems are due to psychological issues and worrying. I had a few bad experiences and now all i can think of when a woman goes down on me is how i might not stay hard, and of course, there goes my erection.
Will drugs help my ED if it is psychological related?
Does anyone have advice for how to address the problem of worrying?
These drugs will help with circulatory ED only. They do nothing for neurological or psychological issues.
That said, if there is some circulatory issue, experiencing success begets further success. If your ED is purely stress. psych related, they will do no good. If the there is some blood flow issue and you are stressed out about that, you may find that a few successes will move you right along. Talk to your doctor.

my boyfriend used to have the same problem. he had lots of girlfriends before me, and said that it was something he always had a problem with...
he saw his doctor many times and as a last resort, his doctor finally gave him viagra.
in short, the viagra didnt do anything (except give him a really bad headache) until he was able to overcome the psychological aspect himself...and even then all it does is give him a raging hard on when hes not even in the mood mentally :rolleyes: personally i dont like it when he uses it.
Already applauded your approach, Kievan. What I did not recognize is that you and Stud, to whom my comment was directed, are in a penis measuring contest and really do not want substantive input.
I believe she is refering to side effects of anything taken and how they can react together. Recently I made my final heavy lifts, I'm no spring chicken either, in fact I'm 58 on Monday. At a contest at my gym, I went for maxium lift in memory of my youngest son, Joey. My last dead lift on the nautlis machine, last man standing was 610lbs. Diet was the main key, training hard....herbal or supplements were left out. My physician has a complete list of anything I take including anything OTC. I have a list from my physician of what I'm allowed to take for colds and flu that are OTC. I'm fighting the effects of stress the same as you, it's easier said than done! I keep everything simple and to the point. Johns-Hopkins did a study on older male...( increasing t- levels and health benefits) I'm trying to remember the exact name of the study. It was a real eye opener for me to read. It went from heart health to lower stress levels and sexual performance issues...etc. If I can't remember, I'll ask doc about it on my next visit.
Naturally because of my age I do suffer of a number of complaints in the downstairs department. My urologist does not say much he just concentrates on cancer and other urinary problems so I went to my GP who also runs a Mens clinic with the ai of a very experienced male nurse he is very good gave me a injection test and could not keep inside it was a bit embarassing to keep on tucking in place at the market LOL!
He suggested Cialis 10mg so the chemist told me to buy 20mg as there is more cost effective $139 or U$135 and split the tablet in two. I have been to a clinic were I was shown (naked) how to do Kegels and also a few weeks joined a gym and started workouts 50% between cardio and weightlifting. Thanks to physical activity I no I have my mojo back with everyday morning wood and I also take Horny Goatweed as a supplement good enough to keep my tool at 3 O'Clock however there is a big gap in refractory erection so I may have to consider using Cialis for the second and third time:)
With what you describe, you are running a higher risk of side effects with no meaningful improvement in function. Your choice.

Thanks but I am not exactly spring chicken and also busy and stressed.
When you say I run the risk. What risks are you referring to?
DO NOT INTERPRET MY POSTS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.
I am talking about possible side effects of all three commonly available E.D. medications. I am saying that if you function adequately without the boost, you are accepting unnecessary risk.
Kievan, I was going to send you a PM, But your not set up...!
Stud,
You are correct about dealing with a physician who will know when the complete workup, as you received, is indicated. I wish more would listen up and ignore the internet shoppes.
In the news yesterday, there was the story of Thai authorities stopping a Chinese vessel on the Mekong River and finding nearly million doses of something bound for the West through god-knows-what channels.

I didn't want to put a one day fix on the problem, I wanted my health issue resolved. It took some time but the time was well spent.
Look at the side effects on the enclosed brochure. Blindness, deafness, vascular damage. Rare but if you are functioning well, why try to add more risk than payoff?

Yes thank you but this is not what my doctors have been saying and prescribed me via verifiable legitimate scripts:)
Thank you for theinfo and feedbacks
Yes I jave consulted my doctors in fact I now recovering from a nasty leg infection (ten days in hospital) so training is off for six weeks (leg still painful and ankle is swollen). I suffered for the past three years and unknown medical condition (multiple symptoms) My testosterone levels were on the lowish for few years and I developed some man boobs among other things. My condition began to retreat a year ago and even so I pay regular visits too my the investigative unit the very same doctors prescribe Cialis as the pill
this is been verified by my GP and male nurse they used Trimix injection to see my erection level and I do not need much Cialis though 5-10 mg will suffice though they are not sure of the level of excitment i may find myself in.
BTW I suffer frequent urination problems for years so all my urologist reports says nothing much than enlarge prostate interfering with the urethra and oversensistive bladder interferes with erection this is why Cialis is prescribed.
My erections are relatively good 80 to 90% they do not last and may even go down before penetration so the pill is there to pick up where I left off.
As far as side effects yes i am aware though the prescription is within safe levels and I will test the necessary mg required before moving into larger doses if necessary.
Congrats for your achievements studmuffin. BTW I have a problem building up muscles.Strenght is there muscles not:(
[QUOTE=Brandye;275581]Nagy,
When there are millions to be made from unsuspecting and wishful men, posting hundreds of fakes is no big deal. Why buy unknown stuff when it is so easy to get what you need legitimately?
Horny Goat Weed has long been used as a folk remedy but no standards for dosage or strength or processing have ever been established. It has been medically established that it does slow down the effects of boneless in post-menopausal women but has never been found to be effective in men for anything. Also, it is taken as a dietary supplement unlike the erectile dysfunction drugs that ae "as needed."[/QUOTE]
I must have taken the long route. I got tested for T-levels and I was below the 280>827ng/dl. Nothing says goodmorning twice a week shot of test-e with my coffee ! Then I had to lose weight, exercise and eat a healthy and balenced diet. I had to learn to relax, control the blood pressure with meds. Only then would doc address the ED issue with cialis. I did everything I could do to fix it, before I asked her to deal with the issue. Somethings are best in the hands of those who know...your physician.
I go after the payoff with the lowest risk. The perfect balence for long term benefits and good health. As long as my stress issues remain high, I will have more ED problems. I will have to take time to deal with these issues.
The only thing I've ever had horny goat weed work for is giving me the giggles. I think it's physically impossible to carry on a serious conversation and drop horny goat weed in. Even a phone auto attendant system would get the giggles; "Press 1 for the nurses station, 2 for the on-call doctor, 3 for the horny goat weed *teehee*".
I'm 12 years old mentally, I accept that. :)
These are prescription meds and they do work but there are side effects. Horny Goatweed will also work but is not as effective and there's a lot of fake stuff out there being marketed as HGW.
In any case, the best place to start is at your urologist's office after getting a "well man" check-up.
Sex is a heavy duty activity that makes huge demands upon your body. Once you've reached 40 years of age, all of your past physical activity begins to catch up to you - old injuries, etc. return and will take their toll. Hence the need for men to take their physical health seriously if they want to enjoy sex in their middle and later years.
A man should also remember that many menopausal women are 'jacked up' on higher testosterone levels due to falling estrogen levels and such women will be more active and demanding than a man might expect (or hope for?). You will want to be prepared.
There are a number of discussion boards for men with medical problems which cause ED. On at least some of them there seem to be discussions of online pharmacies with quite a number of satisfied buyers. (These do not seem to be "plants" because they come from people with hundreds of posts to the board.)
But note that it may be contrary to U.S. law to import drugs which are under patent protection.

So I assume all the herbals are in the same class, VPXL for example? - is there any reality in any of the claims? I'd appreciate any feedback from anyone that has tried these products.

Thanks FB
That is correct. I have no penis to get hard but have some knowledge. Throughout history, various herbs and spices have been used as aphrodisiacs or male helpers. While some few of them may have had some slight effect in a few people, there is no clinical evidence to support them. Most over the counter (or over the net) concoctions are mixtures of these old remedies with little to not potential because, even if they may work, no one has ever established proper dosage. Why? Because there is no evidence that the testing is worthwhile.
I tried this product called libido forte when I visited amsterdam and that thing allowed me to stay hard and have sex all night long. It's better than viagra because I can get hard only when I am aroused. One time viagra got me hard for over 3 hours and it wouldn't stop.
Check it out... It's kinda expensive but cheaper than the blue pill
I looked it up for you. Only one of about a dozen sites with libido forte adverts showed ingredients. That site showed the ingredients in their Latin names. Three ingredients were variations on sugar and the rest were herbs of folklore. See my post above.
One site shows this as a Swiss formula and a few as a combination Chinese herbs. One site was all testimonials and another site questioned the formula because there were no places to find testimonials. One site emphasized how safe it is even with common conditions of aging - hypertension, diabetes, alcohol - other sites were clearly marked do not use with heart problems.
So typical of this stuff.
probably similar to stuff a chinese doctor?got for me .took them as he said to that nite i came like a fire hose .thought i was going to have a heart attack as well awsome and scarry as well wont try it agn
I bow to other peoples superior knowledge on the subject, but I used Viagra once as a "fun" thing, it was great. It gave me a good hard erection and after I'd climaxed, with a little encouragement, I got another one far quicker than normal and far harder than it usually would have been. I admit, I took a risk, but I had sex more times that night than I ordinarily would have been able to achieve and it was great..............I don't suffer from ED, so I guess I got lucky????????
Well, you had no side effects and that is good. Some of what you experienced may be attributable directly to the viagra and some may be attributable to placebo effect - you expected to act like a stud horse, so you did.
I take Cialis when I need a hard erection and it works perfect in my case. It's indeed a week-end pill as its effect lasts a lot, even the next day just woke up :D and I have never had any side effects

even the next day??
is it not a side effect?
who needs erection at work next day??

lol Cialis is not an aphrodisiac, even if you take Cialis you will have an erection only if you are sexually stimulated :p
and no, it's not a side effect having a hard erection the next day (if you are stimulated)
Cialis is meant to work for up to 36h
I like Cialis too, it works good, lasts longer than Viagra and has fewer side effects.
I have just a little flashing the first 10 minutes after i take the pill.
btw I get it online from a safe site I use for a long time and I make good savings.
I can recommend viagra from a reputable pharmacy. I've tried both original brand and generic viagra. There is no difference in effectiveness as far as I can tell between the brand and Generic versions. The real difference is price, no comparison. All I need to say is thank GOD for Viagra which WORKS better for me.

im also interested in buying cialis online as it works ok for me too and i'd like to make some good saving as i take is pretty often and i need many pills. is the site you use a secure one? and do they ship to australia too?

Yeah, the online pharmacy I buy from is a reliable one, I have many friends that order too and no one has any problems. They ship worldwide and all orders come from European countries so we don't encounter any problems. The Cialis pills are good too :D
Buyer be ware, as stated in another post.
I just pasted this on another thread. You must question the validity of any site that will deliver prescription only drugs withou a prescription. I clicked through the online pharmacy link above. It lists availability for US and UK separately for many of their potions. Now, with a name like it has with a .biz suffix, do you really think it is in a country with decent controls?
The best estimates by various drug enforcement agencies is that 10% of "branded" medications around the world are fake. Online, the risk is higher. They have been found online and in legitimate pharmacies in every country that checks. Risks exist. The leading drug retailers, Hook's UK, Walgreen US, have very good quality control programs and carry little risk. Smaller retailers have slightly higher risks. Online? Who knows. You do not know who they are, where they are, where manufacturing is, or where the fulfillment is done. Nor do you know how they are controlled in shipment.
The most common fakes are simply inert compounds that do nothing. Next most common are pills with a compound to replicate the side-effects but they, of course, do not do what you want; only give you exaggerated side-effects to satisfy your curiousity.

I have to agree with Brandye's answer but I'd add the placebo effect.
the site has a .biz suffix, So what??? It may have a .net or a .com suffix
what does this mattes? I trust the site as I always receive my items safe (as well as all my friends) and in good condition, and the pills DO have a good effect. Everything works fine.
Their pills are genuine and their generic versions are manufactured in Indian not in China. So why should I doubt it's a fake pharmacy when everything works fine lol
ella,
I could care less what unknown crap you choose to put into your body. I am unwilling to accept your word as an individual that this is a good place. The purpose is not to change your mind; it is to warn others that there are real risks in purchasing prescription drugs from unknown sources without a prescription. India is the largest source of fake pharmaceuticals found in the supply chains of the world. They have most major international companies manufacturing there and distributing globally; they have many legitimate domestic manufacturers there; they have many questionable sources, as well.
You may accept that, because your experience has been satisfactory, all is well. I hope others seek known and legitimate sources.
PS: Interesting that the "European" source has changedto "Indian" between posts.

my dear, I said orders are SHIPPED FROM EUROPE but generic medications (shipped from EU) are MANUFACTURED IN INDIA!
Be disdainful as you wish; my points are still valid. Buying prescription drugs without prescriptions from an unknown source on the internet is a risk.
i have erectile dysfunction problem ,viagra help where can i get viagra
You have to get it perscribed by a doctor. I think all us aging men suffer from this to some extent. My wife loves the Levitra
