Erectile Dysfunction

Was I really giving it my all?

What does it say about me if my erection only lasts around three hours and forty-five minutes?

Does my body even have enough blood to sustain consciousness for that long?

I decided to do some web surfing and find out for myself what all the fuss was about.

What I found truly shocked me.

It turns out that these medications not only have the ability to work for up to 36 hours, but they generally have mild side effects, such as headaches, back pain or an upset stomach.

If you’re old enough you could possibly get a heart attack and die, but for someone who’s in their prime, this is the bees knees, man.

You have to admit that these folks know how to advertise their products.

First of all, you have the hundred or so emails that get sent out to you every day.

This can be seen as a friendly reminder that although you may not have But don’t worry, there’s a pill that can solve the problem, and then some.

Then of course you have the television commercials.

These things are a stroke of genius, because they surround you with so many feel-good images of people having a great time that you start to for...

The objective of a recent study by J.

Gemery, S.

K.

Reid, and colleagues from Boston University was to create digital three-dimensional (3D) models of a pelvis, pudendal arteries and bicycle seats to evaluate the potential sites of compression of the vessels.

The study is published in the January 207 issue of BJU Int.

The authors hypothesized that the seat type in conjunction with the rider's position differently affects the orientation and compression of the pudendal arteries.

After using 3D models of one male pelvis and three bicycle seats, the authors then correlated with lateral radiographs of a seated rider to determine potential vascular compression between the bony pelvis and seats at different angles of rider position.

Penile hypoxia secondary to decreased blood flow might be injurious, and has been postulated to promote trabecular connective tissue synthesis, which could impede the achievement of erection.

There have been studies that have shown a decrease in mean transcutaneous penile oxygen pressure at the glans from 60.5 mmHg, standing before cycling, to 17.9 mmHg after 15 minutes of cycling while seated.

Analysis of the resul...
