Viagra and Porn

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION QUESTION:

If I take a Viagra pill then watch porn should it still work?

DOCTOR ALSAYES ANSWER:

Yes, it will work and it will give you an erection, but it should not be used for masturbation. Viagra can help achieve an erection only in the presence of sexual stimulation (even if that stimulation is a porn movie), and the erection will not occur just by taking the pill.

I hope this answers your question.

What Foods Can I Eat to Help Viagra Work Better for Me?

Viagra Question

I’ve been using Viagra for the last 18 months or so, and it has been working well for me. However, I’m wondering if there are foods or beverages that I can include in my diet to help the drug perform even more effectively. If so, what are these wonder foods?


Answer

Although it’s doubtful that any food or beverage could perform as well as Viagra, there are certain nutrients that are known to improve erectile function. Adding these to your diet would help to ensure that your erectile function stayed strong and hopefully improved.

In an article posted at EverydayHealth.com, Chris Iliades, M.D., lists a number of these nutrients and the foods and beverages in which they’re found. Foods high in nitrates help the body to create nitric oxide, which plays a key role in erectile function. Nitrate-rich foods include arugula, beets, celery, iceberg lettuce, and spinach.

For those with a sweet tooth, dark chocolate is a rich source of flavonoids that support robust vascular health. Pistachios are rich in arginine, an amino acid that seems to relax blood vessels, thus improving blood flow.

Oysters and certain other shellfish are loaded with zinc, a mineral that helps to promote the body’s production of testosterone, while watermelon contains high levels of citrulline, an amino acid that converts into arginine in the body. Tomatoes and pink grapefruit are rich sources of lycopene, a phytonutrient that’s also a powerful antioxidant.

30 Year Old Married Man and I Have a Numb Penis

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION QUESTION:

I am 30-year-old married man and I have a numb penis. I have no problem to get a hard penis and I can perform sex with no issues. my problem is that whenever my penis enters, I do not feel anything.

DOCTOR ALSAYES ANSWER:

This insensitivity problem you have could be due to nerve root damage, or never compression or inflammation, and in most cases, it disappears after treating the cause.
There are many reasons that could lead to such a problem, for instance, this type of numbness is more common in men who cycle, especially those who ride for long distances.

Also, any disease that damages the nerves can affect the feeling in the penis area, including diabetes and multiple sclerosis (MS).

Please see your urologist for evaluation to identify the cause before considering the proper treatment.

The tests you need will depend on what condition the doctor suspects, but they might include: blood tests to check your testosterone levels, and/ or imaging tests such as MRI, to check for problems within the brain or the spinal cord.

I hope this answers your question.

Is Viagra Available in a Spray Form or a Transdermal Patch?

Viagra Question

Is Viagra available in any other form than oral tablets? I seem to remember reading about plans to produce it in spray form and also as a transdermal patch. Are those reports accurate?


Answer

Over the years, reports have circulated that Pfizer scientists and others were considering offering alternative delivery methods for the ED drug. Such alternatives have included transdermal patches and nasal sprays. So far, these reports remain unconfirmed, and no such products have appeared on the market, nor have there been credible announcements that they were actually in the pipeline. A number of medications are delivered via a transdermal patch, but how well this would suit Viagra is unclear.

Can Viagra Reduced the Risk of an Heart Attack

Viagra Question

I read somewhere that Viagra reduced the risk of heart attack. Is that accurate and could it help me too?


Answer

While earlier studies had already established Viagra’s benefits for those with damaged hearts, a more recent study found that men with type 2 diabetes could reduce their chances of heart attack significantly by taking Viagra. The study, conducted by researchers at England’s University of Manchester, also found that type 2 diabetics taking Viagra were more likely to survive a heart attack than those not on the drug.

The research team reviewed the electronic health records of nearly 6,000 male type 2 diabetics between the ages of 40 and 89.

As a treatment for ED, Viagra works by temporarily disabling an enzyme known as phosphodiesterase-5 that can interfere with optimal blood flow. It turns out that sildenafil citrate, the active ingredient in Viagra, also optimizes blood flow to the heart, thus reducing the risk of heart attack and increasing the survival odds for those who do have heart attacks.

Findings from the study, funded by the British Heart Foundation and the United Kingdom’s National Institute of Health Research, were published in a 2016 issue of the BMJ journal “Heart.”

31 and I’ve Been Having Sexual Problems Erectile Dysfunction

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION QUESTION:

I’m 31 & I’ve been having sexual problems/erectile dysfunction for about 1 year/10 months whether it’s with a girl or when I’m alone. There are some days I can’t get an erection at all the days I can I can’t maintain it for more than 10 minutes!

It’s not psychological cause I’ve had ED for about 10 months/ a year ( I admit there were 1 or 2 occasions when I was stressed). But even when I’m home alone when I masturbate I can get an erection ( sometimes a semi-erection depending on what I ate earlier like food high in saturated fat or high in carbs like sweets, chocolate, cheese, lasagna which can cause ED as it narrows the arteries & raises your blood sugar & cholesterol levels). Anyway, I can’t maintain an erection especially when I stand up.

So my doc gave me a pack of 4 pills of Viagra(50mg). I took it on 2 different occasions before sex it worked ( in fact it was the best sex I had cause I managed to get/maintain an erection for 1 hour & my dick was rock hard) BUT I had some worrying side effects afterwards so I told myself I would never ever take Viagra again.

The side effects I had were: bad headaches, difficulty breathing, chest pains, really fast irregular heartbeat I was gonna call the ambulance or go to the A&E department it was so bad I thought I was gonna die or have a stroke/cardiac arrest.

Eventually, the symptoms went away so I didn’t call the ambulance but I then looked at the leaflet & I couldn’t believe the list of dangerous side effects that were listed!
On the leaflet, it states: tell your doctor or go to the casualty department straight away if you notice any of these side effects: difficulty breathing (which I had), dizziness, swelling of your eyelids, mouth or throat. What was written afterward was even worse it states: if you have a stroke or have sharp chest pains (which I had) call the A&E immediately!

Other side effects include Sudden death(!), loss of blood to the brain & heart. Most, BUT NOT ALL MEN, had heart problems prior to taking Viagra. There have been cases of convulsions & seizures. There were many more side effects written on the leaflet I’m not gonna list them all: headaches, impaired vision, vomiting, irregular or fast heartbeat(which I had), high or low blood pressure, fainting,

So I’m looking for an alternative to Viagra. A pill to take just before sex & that is effective & that works on getting/maintaining erections.

The most famous ones are Vigrxplus, Prosolution, Sinrex, Maleextra but before buying one of them I’d like to know do I have to take these pills every day or just 1 pill before having sex?? I’m looking for the latter i.e a pill before sex. I’m not looking for a pill I’d have to take every day.
Sorry about the long post thanks for reading

DOCTOR ALSAYES ANSWER:

I’m very sorry to hear that.

First of all, I do not recommend any of these products. If you must take something then you should take a proven medication such as Viagra, or Cialis.
What happened to you could be because you have taken a higher dose than you should. For instance, if you started with 50 mg Viagra, then try 25 mg. or 50 mg if you started with 100mg.

Regarding these side effects, they are not that common as you think, and they occur in patients who may have other health problems like a heart disease or coronary disease, or in those whom may take it wrongfully or in higher doses.

But in normal healthy men, and when taken as prescribed, Viagra is considered a safe solution.

Unfortunately, I can’t recommend any alternatives herbs or formulas, because their efficacy is not proven scientifically.

You should know that above 80% of ED problems we see in our clinics are due to psychological problems and what makes them harder to treat is that many of these patients refuse to believe it’s just a psychological issue. And it could psychological issue even if you are alone.

ED has many factors and underlying causes, one of these aspects are the psychological aspect.

A psychological aspect can in form of anxiety or pressure to perform under heightened anxiety, or acute stress disorder, or Low sex drive due to an underlying cause.
Watching pornography and masturbation more frequently can also lead to erectile dysfunction during actual sex relation. Some studies have found that frequently masturbating to porn can contribute to ED by desensitizing you to certain imagery and physical intimacy.

Alcohol drinking and tobacco or any smoking can also contribute to ED.
Health issues like high sugar level and high cholesterol can also lead to ED.

We must first identify the cause and then treat it accordingly. I advise you first to visit a doctor and make some evaluation tests to exclude any medical/physical causes, and if all tests came up negative then your doctor will advise you on how to deal with stress and performance anxiety or he may refer you to a psychotherapist (if needed). In the meanwhile, I advise you to establish a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly, eating healthy food (low cholesterol), and stop or avoid alcohol and tobacco as they both contribute to ED. These steps will help him regain his normal erection faster.

I hope this answers your question.

Can I Overdose on Viagra?

Viagra Question

Is it possible to overdose on Viagra? And, if so, what would the symptoms of an overdose be?


Answer

The maximum recommended daily dose of Viagra is 100 milligrams, which some men need to get the desired results from the drug. Taking more than that would constitute an overdose and would increase the likelihood — and severity — of the drug’s known side effects. The most common side effects of Viagra are back pain, diarrhoea, dizziness, flushing, headache, muscle aches, runny or stuffy nose, and upset stomach.

Because sildenafil citrate works by temporarily lowering blood pressure to dilate the arteries that supply the penis, thus increasing blood flow to the organ and facilitating erection, too much of the drug could cause a precipitous drop in blood pressure. This, in turn, could lead to extreme lightheadedness and even loss of consciousness.

In addition to amplifying the drug’s regular side effects, taking too much Viagra could also cause shortness of breath, chest pain, and/or an irregular heartbeat. A Viagra overdose could also increase your risk of experiencing one of sildenafil citrate’s more serious side effects, which include a sudden decrease or loss of hearing or vision and an erection that lasts for four hours or more.

Although the latter might seem at first glance a potential benefit, priapism is no laughing matter. An erection that lasts more than four hours can cause permanent damage to erectile tissue, making it even more difficult or impossible to get an erection in the future.

71 Year Old Alcoholic (mild) with ED Need Help?

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION QUESTION:

I am a 71-year-old alcoholic (mild) with ED. If I don’t have any alcohol for a week, can I see any improvement in my ED condition?

DOCTOR ALSAYES ANSWER:

As you know, drinking more than one or two units of alcohol for long-term can compromise erections and eventually lead to erectile dysfunction. It also will make Viagra less effective.
The effect of stopping alcohol drinking on that matter vary from man to another depending on many factors, such as age, number of drinking years, the average amount per day, etc.

However, most long-term alcohol users experienced significant improvement after 6 months of quitting.

You may start noticing some kind of improvement sooner than that.

In the meanwhile, I advise you to establish a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly, eating healthy food (low cholesterol), and stop or avoid alcohol and tobacco as they both contribute to ED. These steps will help you regain your normal erection faster.

I hope this answers your question.
