Research recently carried out in the happiest country in the world, Finland, has demonstrated that a lack of regular blood flow to the penis will over time, cause some of the tissues to die. The effects on penile health, are similar to smoking and diabetes.
The blood that flows into the penis when it is erect, nourishes the tissues of the penis, hence the need to have a hard-on daily, even if you don’t always have sex daily. If you dont use it, you loose it.
Erection occurs when blood fills the two chambers in the penis known as the corpora cavernosa, this causes the penis to expand and stiffen, much like a balloon as it is filled with water. This process is triggered by nerve impulses from both the brain and genital area.
Anything that interferes with these impulses or restricts blood flow to the penis can result in failure to have or sustain an erection. This is reffered to as Erectile dysfunction (ED).
Indeed, Finnish researchers have confirmed that men who had sex less than once a week at the start of a study were twice as likely to develop erectile dysfunction as those who had it at least once a week.
In the study of 1, 000 men aged between 55 and 75, those who had sex three or more times a week lowered their risk for erectile dysfunction by four-fold.
There's no reason not to enjoy a full sex life in old age, the researchers submit;
“We have some patients in their 80's taking Viagra type drugs and studies have shown that a regular sex life can prolong life, because it’s basically another form of exercise”.
Interestingly, Sidenafil the chemical name for Viagra was originally researched to treat the cardiovascular diseases of pulmonary Hypertension and Angina.
Now, many men who suffer from erectile dysfunction depend on drugs such as Viagra and its clo8se cousin Cialis to get and sustain healthy erection. It is certainly not all about impotence.
Chinese researchers say that erectile dysfunction (ED) drugs, called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE 5) inhibitors, which include medications such as Viagra, Cialis and Levitra may also boost sperm quality in men with weak sperm.
Based on 11 studies that included 1,317 men, the scientists discovered that when used, Viagra increased the number of motile sperm and normal-shaped sperm in men who were considered infertile because of low sperm count.
This is important, because sperm motility, which measure how effectively they move, and sperm morphology, which measures how normally they are shaped, are important factors in what makes sperm successful. It can therefore affect a man's ability to get his partner pregnant.
Interestingly, the sperm-boosting effects weren’t seen in men who had healthy sperm. Rather, it’ s only those with poor quality sperm that got an upgrade.
The scientists conclude that more research needs to be done before any recommendations on using these drugs in the treatment of infertility.
Viagra in Women
In women, the clitoris, labia minora and labia majora are the external sex organs and equivalent of the penis in men. The female genitalia experiences arousal, engorgement and erection as in men. Viagra, also enhances this process in women just as in men.
Although the woman does not need clitoral erection to archieve penetration and intercourse as in men, the majority of women, about 75% in some studies can only archieve orgasm via clitoral stimulation and arousal.
So as we get older, with the inevitable fall in the blood level of the sex hormones, viagra does have a role to play in making sexual intercourse more pleasurable, for both men and women.
The researchers condemned the myth that once you hit 65, you can’t have good sex, "that’s rubbish” they said.
As with all drugs please consult your doctor for a medical check-up and dosage advice before use. Better safe than sorry.
