Zertane Might Be The Only Medical Treatment For Premature Ejaculation

Studies show that, depending on the definition, between 2% and 23% of men are suffering from premature ejaculation. Adding insult to injury, a large number of those men also suffer from erectile dysfunction. To make matters worse, the only medical treatment available has long since been strong anti-depressants, like Prozak, and such drugs have serious side-effects, including an increased risk of suicide. That could all change, according to Ampio Pharmaceuticals.

Ampio Pharmaceuticals has been putting their drug Zertane through Phase III testing as a premature ejaculation treatment and it is now looking for local distributors to market the drug worldwide. Ampio themselves state of the drug that it “has an excellent safety record established during 30 years of human use.” In their Phase II testing, “no serious side-effects were caused by Zertane” and only rarely did men stop taking the drug for less serious side-effects.

Surgery For ED Promises Erections With Penile Implants

Treating erectile dysfunction can be a long and difficult process. Although popular erectile pills, such as Viagra and Cialis, help many men there are also many cases where they fail.

Internet Pornography leads to Erectile Dysfunction in Young Men

Easy access to internet pornography has certainly brought about a great number of changes. It has changed our sexual tastes, our viewing habits, and now scientists suggest that it has changed our brains. As a result, a man’s internet porn habits may directly affect his ability to achieve and maintain an erection.

Internet pornography is quite unlike traditional pornography. There is greater variety and greater quantities at higher speeds, which increases the likelihood of the kind of super-stimulation that can lead to addiction.  And just like the drug addict needs subsequently bigger or stronger doses to achieve the same level of high, the internet porn addict needs more and more potent pornography to get aroused. The addict needs new porn, new genres, and new more outrageous sex acts. In the end, real life sexual partners cannot live up to the rush of internet porn and erectile dysfunction sets in.

How to Treat Erectile Dysfunction without Cialis, Levitra or the Little Blue Pill

Viagra, the little blue pill that started it all, is today nearly synonymous with erectile dysfunction treatment. It is easy to forget that Viagra is not the be-all and end-all in treating impotence. And with warnings resurfacing in the past moth about Viagra’s more potent side-effects, vision and hearing loss, many men may be wondering exactly what options they have. In the jungle of erectile dysfunction therapies, not all treatments are equal.

Popular alternatives include Cialis and Levitra. Both are effective quicker and longer than Viagra and are therefore favoured by many men and doctors.
