The newly anticipated premature ejaculation spray can be hitting the market soon enough, and men will be able to buy the PSD502 spray before you can say, “Darn, not again.” Over 35 percent of men suffer from PE, and the company Shionogi Pharma did their math on this; they are hoping to launch as soon as possible.

At an annual meeting for the Urological Association in California, Shionogi Pharma presented doctors and sexual medicines experts on their new drug PSD502. Its name does sound interesting, but some experts believe that it is not much different than products that are already available on the market.

You might have seen similar products. Durex even has a set of condoms that contains a small amount of lube; they are called Durex Performax. This lube is supposed to de-sensitize the tip of the penis and contains a popular active ingredient called Benzocaine. This is not the only product out there for PE; there are many different kinds of creams; one, in particular, is called MANDELAY; it also contains the ingredient Benzocaine.

Are there any more treatments for Premature Ejaculation?
Just pick up a dirty magazine or, in some cases, any print mag that features a sexy woman on the front cover. We have all seen the advertisements on the back pages, everything from penis rings to PE creams and sprays. As far as prescription treatments for PE go, the only known one is a medication called Priligy (dapoxetine), but for all you US readers don’t get too excited yet, it is not approved by the FDA yet and can take some time to reach America.

The penis is like any other muscle in your body, if you don’t use it, you loose it. This goes for older men as well. If you do not exercise, you will loose muscle tone. The more you exercise, the better the definition is the muscle being exercised. To make muscle stronger, exercising it makes more blood flow to that muscle.

Listen to this; the major factor in ED (erectile dysfunction) is lack of blood flow to the penis. Most men do not know that this is the major function of Viagra or Cialis, helps blood flow to the penis. Like a muscle, exercise it and you will add blood flow.

Finnish researchers studied almost 1000 men for five years. The age of these men at the beginning of the study was 55 to 75. The research unveiled that the men who were having regular sex at the beginning of the study were much less likely to develop ED at the end of the study. These researchers are encouraging men to be sexually active into their golden years.

In Finland, the University of Tampere’s Dr. Koskimaki and colleagues reported these findings in the American Journal of Medicine.

The report said that men in this age group that had sex less than once a week had two times the risk of getting ED as the men who had sex at least once a week. And compared to the men who were having sex 3 or more times a week, the ones having sex less than once a week were 4 times more likely then the more than 3 times a week group.

Other factors can contribute to erectile dysfunction as well. Heart disease, age, medications, depression, and diabetes are among those factors. But even with those considerations the researchers report that sexual activity was still a major factor.

Want to keep getting up later in life seniors? Just like exercise, sexual activity will help keep it harder. Not only that, but other research shows that sexual activity also helps the heart. Imagine, helping the heart and your erections all in one!

Not only that, what would it do for you psychologically? All you here about in commercials these days is the need for Viagra when you get older. How would you like to be the senior in the park with your friends bragging about how you were doing it with your partner last night? Do you think that would be good for your morale? The answer is clear…

How Do I Stop Psychological ED and Performance Anxiety?

Psychological problems can count for almost 25 % of erectile dysfunction cases in men under the age of 35. Usually, men in their twenties and thirties are in the prime sexual peak, but not if psychological factors and performance anxiety interfere.

Performance Anxiety 3 Ways of Stopping it

Health conditions such as diabetes, hypertension and depression can also cause erectile dysfunction, but in younger men this is not common and psychological problems are the main cause for younger men getting ED.

Before we show you 3 ways of stopping psychological ED and performance anxiety, let’s explain what they really are and factors that cause them:

Performance Anxiety:

This is a fear of how you are going to perform. It is a common sexual problem and anxiety plays a huge role, causing you to feel fear before engaging in sexual intercourse. The fear of how you are going to perform and what your partner will think of you can lower your self esteem and cause ED to kick in.

How long will I last?
Will she think my penis is small?
Am I doing it right?
What if she tells her friends?
I hope I am getting hard enough!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! Stop!!!!!!

Those are all common thoughts that performance anxiety can generate. An awareness of failing to please your partner or getting it up typically produces so much preoccupation and anxiety, that it causes men to loose their erections. This can happen in various episodes and if you do not treat performance anxiety, it can happen every time you want to have sex. You are training your mind to feel fear before intercourse and the key is to reverse this cycle.

If a man tells his wife beforehand and works into the new sexual relationship, Viagra can help this new relationship mature and enhance a relationship. But if a man jumps into it with both feet and is all of a sudden in the mood all the time, this can be overwhelming for the wife.

Hanflings always advises that couples need to make the decision together before actually buying the ED drug. They could even go to their physicians and learn how to use it. Like anything out there, there are instructions for proper use.

If this increased libido does make a man go looking for another partner that leads to divorce, chances are there were other underlying issues in the relationship, which makes the drug unlikely to be the culprit.

A spokeswoman for Viagra, Jenifer Jacobs, says oversexed men with wives having trouble coping is a very rare circumstance.

Man talks to his wife

Couples need to work together to resolve sex issues, including ED. Viagra is a tool for couples, and these couples need to understand this. In reality, it is not just for the man. This is Hanflings biggest concern with Viagra.

Sexuality in Midlife and Beyond

Harvard School of Medicine published a report saying just that. The report, “Sexuality in Midlife and Beyond,” now confirms what these marriage counselors have also been reporting, that although the ED medicines have improved relationships, others are suffering.

The report reads, “When intercourse is suddenly a possibility again, relationship issues can emerge or resurface, as can dramatic differences in libido. The bottom line is that couples should try to regard these drugs as an opportunity to renew their sexual relationship while realizing that ED drugs are neither a mandate to have intercourse nor a panacea for every problem in the bedroom.”

Assistant professor at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Altman, and licensed clinical social worker, and certified sex therapist Suki Hanfling both edited the 48-page report. There are millions of success stories regarding Viagra, but couples need to know how to use it. The report outlines this and other issues, including how to deal with emotional issues about sex and taking Viagra.

According to Pfizer pharmaceutical’s website, Viagra has been on the market for ten years and is one of the best-selling drugs in history. They claim 25 million men have taken Viagra since its introduction. Viagra has put tens of thousands of men back in the bedroom.

Viagra and divorce

But some marriage counselors are saying that Viagra is certainly helping marriages, but at the same time, it can be destroying others. Experts are now saying that men are taking this ED medicine and not telling their partners. Once the little blue pill is ingested, it turns these men into machines ready for sex, and sometimes the partner is just not prepared for such action. And as a result of these men’s improved libido and self-esteem, they can go looking elsewhere outside the relationship to satisfy these needs.

Kegel Exercise For Men

Many men have reported that these exercises help men with ED (erectile dysfunction), which allows them to depend less on medications like Viagra, Cialis, or Levitra. ED is often caused by a lack of blood flow to the genital region.

Exercising any muscle increases blood flow to the muscle being exercised, so you will increase blood flow to this region which may help many of you. How about that for an incentive to do these Kegel exercises! And remember, these can be done anywhere, anytime.

Perfecting The Form

Some men may find it difficult to pinpoint these muscles at first. The best way to figure out which ones are correct is by sitting on or standing in front of the toilet to urinate; while urinating, stop the flow several times to feel which muscles they are. Also, tighten your anus like you are trying to stop a bowel movement.

You can insert the tip of your finger into your anus while lying down to feel it tighten around your finger to make sure you have it right.

Obesity and Erectile Dysfunction

Obesity is one of the faster-growing epidemics society facing today. And every day, we learn something terrible about obesity, yet it is growing at an alarming rate. Well, one thing more to chalk up to obesity, erectile dysfunction.

Obese and No Erection

Not only is ED more common in obese men than men in good shape, but their overall sexual health is also at risk. Studies at the Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale have found other startling issues in the obese population. There needs to be more researched on this topic to know more, but the preliminary studies are eye-opening.

The French studied over 12,000 men and women, ranging from average weight to obese weight, ages 18 to 69, all living in France.

Here are some of the higher points that professors have documented:

1. Body Mass Index (BMI) had no bearing on sexual function in women
2. Sexually transmitted diseases (STD’s) were about the same between normal-weight women and obese women
3. Obese women were less likely to seek out advice about contraceptive methods than normal-weight women
4. 70% of obese women were less likely to use contraceptives and eight times less conceivable to use other means of less effective practices like pulling out.
5. Even though obese women were 30% less likely to have sexual intercourse, they were four times higher at unplanned pregnancies than normal-weight women.
6. Meeting a partner online was five times greater for obese women than normal-weight women, and that the partner they met would also be obese.

The more prevalent outcome for obese men:

1. The under the age of 30 obese men were more likely in the past five years to have contracted an STD (sexually transmitted disease)
2. Age 30 to 49 of the obese men in most cases did not use a condom
3. Sexual partners do not come easy for obese men as they were 70% less likely to have one
4. And obese men were two and a half times more likely to struggle with erectile dysfunction.
5. Obese men were more likely to use ED medications. The most common ones are Cialis than Viagra.
6. Researchers included in their conclusion that it would seem the obesity problem is a snowball effect.

The number of Younger men using Viagra for ED is on the rise. Why are more and more young men turning to medications such as Viagra? How can a man under the age of 30 have Erectile Dysfunction?

These questions are turning up more and more, but why? Experts say that men are starting to feel more intimidated by powerful younger women with high expectations sexually.

Change in Romance and Dating

Romance and dating have changed over the past 20 years, and it’s not just dinner and a movie that might get you lucky. Women are much more demanding these days, which can cause men to face more pressure, creating a sense of anxiety and problems in the bedroom. This pressure is diverting many men from buying Viagra and similar ED medications.

But why are women’s sexual expectations so much higher than they were 20 years ago? Experts claim that there are many reasons, here are the most talked about:

1) New TV Shows, movies, or even reality TV give women more and more reasons to demand better performance in the bedroom. Various examples have pointed to the TV show “Sex in the City.”

2) They are more confident, have better financial stability, and are sexually more secure.

Younger men who visit Sex Therapists are Increasing.

Sex therapists have reported a massive increase in younger men visiting their offices requesting advice and help, claiming that powerful women are too much for them to handle.

However, sexual therapists believe the number of men who visit them is just a fraction compared to men who do not want to discuss this embarrassing problem and research more on erectile dysfunction and Viagra online.

In many cases, men result buying medications like Cialis, Viagra, and Levitra on the internet.

Cure ED or Jeopardize Your Relationship?

Even though surveys suggest that a healthy relationship depends on a satisfying sex life, over 55% of men in a current study say that a busy lifestyle causes them to have poor sexual relations with their partner. Almost 65% of women in the same survey have the same issue.

Are Relationships With Frequent Sexual Intercourse Healthy?

This current survey, which Pfizer Asia-Pacific Sexual Health conducted on over 3000 sexually active men and women, concluded that a happy marriage depended on satisfying sex life.

Frequent sexual intercourse is very healthy, both physically and emotionally. But men with erectile dysfunction have trouble getting or maintaining an erection long enough for sex. While quantity is essential for men, and quality is most important for women, both suffer when ED is present.

Men with cardiovascular disease should look into preventative strategies, which could be an essential factor in ED. These could include pharmacological treatments such as Viagra or Cialis and lifestyle changes.

Both Men and Women are affected by ED.

Inability to have sex is not the only problem brought on by erectile dysfunction either. For both women and men, it’s also associated with family life, the role of a partner, romance, and love as well. Also, men with ED are less interested in sex and are less satisfied with sex; they also tend to have an overall negative outlook on life.

Unfortunately, many men still believe that erectile dysfunction is a private matter and not a medically treatable problem. They are also too embarrassed to talk to a medical professional. Doctors everywhere agree though this issue needs the attention brought to light.

In Canada and the US, the issue isn’t as embarrassing as it once was, and the UK and Europe are on the go as well. Other parts of the world need some educating, and their health care professional is there waiting for them.

Erectile Dysfunction is an illness that can be helped or cured, and relationships do not need to suffer because of it. Erectile dysfunction is much simpler to repair than a relationship.
