Q. My 52-year-old husband has been having a lot of problems. First, he wasn’t able to get an erection and was having pain in his lower abdomen. His doctor treated him for prostatitis. It helped relieve the pain, but then he got worse. He went to a urologist and was put on Flomax. He has been able to get erections, but they are painful, especially at the tip. After taking this medicine for about a month, he began experiencing a curved penis. He went back to the urologist who told him he had Peyronie’s disease and said there was nothing…
Q. My husband is 42 and continually says that he is in the prime of his life sexually. I doubt that’s true. Can you please clarify this subject for us? A. You are correct. Most studies have shown that men reach their sexual maturity at age 17. At that time, their sexual drive and stamina are both at their peak. On the other hand, women reach their peak in their mid-30s. Nonetheless, individuals vary. Your husband may actually be in his prime, if that’s what he wants to believe. buy steroids bitcoin Order Tamox Buy Fertigyn Order Cut Stack 750
Q. I am 51, and I have a problem with keeping an erection for more then 10 minutes. I think it is a blood circulation problem, because my feet always feel cold and my balls feel cool to the touch. If only I could stay erect for another 10 minutes I would be satisfied. My doctor gave me a prescription for Viagra. He says I don’t need to use the whole pill, but to cut it in half and see how that works. What would it do if I cut it in quarters? Would that help me out for another…
Q. I have tried Viagra for erectile difficulty, but it gives me headaches. I’ve heard there are some other sexual enhancers available or in testing. What can you tell me about these? A. One potential competitor for Viagra is a pill called Vasomax. This is a new application of the established drug phentolamine, which used to be injected directly into the penis. It works by blocking blood-vessel constriction, making it easier for the blood vessels to expand. When taken orally, it affects the whole body. Trials showed that 42 percent of men with mild erectile dysfunction develop better erections with…
Q. My husband is addicted to marijuana. He has had difficulty maintaining a complete erection since I have known him. Could the long-term marijuana use be a factor in his inability to maintain an erection? What should I do? This is a very sensitive issue. A. To start with, your husband needs professional help. Addiction to marijuana is no different from addiction to alcohol or other mind-altering drugs. These drugs all affect a person’s ability to adapt in most social settings, resulting in difficulties in intimacy, friendships and all aspects of daily activities. I understand it is a sensitive issue,…
Q. What can you tell me about penile implants? Is that the same thing as the pump? How natural does it feel? Is it filled with fluid or made out of something rigid? A. Penile implants are quite diverse. In general, there are three categories. First are what we call rigid implants. These are solid rods of plastic or silicone that go in the penis. In this situation, the penis is erect all the time. The second category are the malleable implants. These are flexible silicone rods with reinforced centers that allow the person to flex the penis up and…
Q. I’m a 38-year-old man. I have undergone 15 surgeries since 1991, and I was doing fine until recently. I had a knee replacement and two discs removed, and I’ve been taking various medications. My problem is that I have the sex drive, but I’m lacking in the staying power. The most I can last is only two minutes, a far cry from my better days. My girlfriend of five years left me over this. I’m wondering what if anything can help me feel “manly” again. I’ve tried vitamins, DHEA, etc. to no avail. A. Because you have had back…
Q. I have been on Prozac for the past 3 months. Recently, I have had trouble when my husband and I have sex. I only reach a certain plateau — not climax or orgasm. I know this is a side effect of the medication, but what can I do about it? A. You’re right that delayed orgasm is one of the possible side effects of Prozac and some other SSRIs (the class of antidepressants called Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors). These medications act by inhibiting the central nervous system’s use of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which leaves more of that chemical floating…
Q. My husband, who is 53, has Peyronie’s disease and we think it was caused by Fosamax. It has gotten much worse and the penis curvature is so severe that intercourse is impossible. My husband’s urologist first gave him some POTABA and told him to take vitamin E. He now feels that surgery is the only option. My husband would prefer not to have surgery. We have heard that Propoleum injection has been effective. Do you know anything about it? What nonsurgical treatment has been the most effective for your patients? A. I doubt that taking Fosomax (used to treat…
Q. My husband has been taking saw palmetto for many, many years, but it does not seem to have been helpful. What we HAVE noticed, though, is a considerable decrease in his sexual desire. Does saw palmetto adversely affect the libido? Also, after he had problems with urinating frequently during the night, his doctor prescribed Cardura. Since he has taken the Cardura, we have noticed an INCREASE in his sexual desire. Have you had reports on this as a side effect? What can you tell of about long-term use of Cardura? A. Your husband’s usage of saw palmetto and Cardura…
