But why would Sildenafil be used on a woman?
For a man it helps increase the blood flow, allowing the erection to become stronger and last long enough for sexual stimulation. For women it helps in a similar way, by increasing blood flow but to the uterus which helps thicken a woman’s uterine lining. This way the embryos can implant and develop into a very healthy pregnancy.

The babies mother “Rene” had been trying to conceive for years with no success and many failed treatments at other fertility clinics. She was even told that should might never be able to carry her own child and hope could be lost. The doctor who treated Rene mentioned the reason for her discovery

“Viagra has the ability to increase blood flow to the male organ, logically that it could do the same for women”

Through the treatment that was given to her by using sildenafil Viagra, Rene was able to conceive her own child and this year the child turns ten. They now have two kids that they quoted being their “Viagra Children”. Since this discovery many other clinics have adopted it as well.

For those of you who do not know what Sauerkraut is

Allot of men are not aware that Sauerkraut aka pickled cabbage is a very powerful aphrodisiac which for men can help in the erectile dysfunction department. A recent book released by a Dr. Kazinic called “Nutrition of the 21st century” recommends sauerkraut and compares it to impotence meds such as Viagra.

That’s debatable, but it sure is a good alternative to try for those men who like Sauerkraut.

For those of you who do not like Sauerkraut, here is a small list of 3 top Aphrodisiacs men should consider for erectile dysfunction:

1) Ginseng: Considered one of the best Chinese libido enhancers and one of the top selling herbs in the USA.

The manager of “El Rey” even asks his customer to report back to him with their experience and if the soup works, basically asks how they performed after eating his soup. The restaurant sells almost a dozen soups a day and the best day of the week for sales on “Viagra Soup” is on Friday. Mr. Genao has his own special recipe for this soup and does not say it compares or has the similar effects of Viagra but he does mention that seafood such as shrimp, crab, lobsters and fish have always been known to be a romantic meal.

Another tip would be to check for morning erections also called “morning wood“.

Some of the most common ones are high blood pressure medication, surgical nerve damage, previous prostate surgeries and diabetes, along with several other medical conditions.

Here is a good site to find a Urologist near you:

An interesting study posted on urotoday

This study was done on men who suffer from common erectile dysfunction, calculating the time it took to achieve an erection after taking the dose of Vardenafil. Initialy researchers were not sure if the same results can be applied to men who suffer from more serious cases of Erectile Dysfunction such as those suffering from diabetes mellitus. The goal of this study was to see if Vardenafil can also work rapidly for men who do suffer from both erectile dysfunction and DM. In order to see the results of the study you can read the findings on their website.

“Data from a 12-week Phase III clinical trial (randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group comparison) in Japanese men with ED and DM was used for analysis. In this study, patients received vardenafil” read the whole report here..

The data is a little complicated to read but at the end it mentions that patients with ED and diabetes mellitus also responded rapidly to vardenafil compared to those who were given a placebo and started intercourse in as little as 15 minutes up to 2 hours after dosing.

1) Does Cialis cause an erection right away?
No. There needs to be sexual stimulation in order to achieve and maintain an erection. Cialis is not the only exception for this. Most erectile dysfunction treatments require sexual arousal in order to take effect. Cialis helps the erection occur and once the sexual activity is finished the erection will go away on its own. If in rare cases that the erection does not go away you need to call your physician for immediate medical attention.

2) Can you eat and drink if taking it?
There is no problem with enjoying a meal while taking cialis, it is however recommended not to eat fatty foods. This means that having a nice dinner is ok before you decide when the moment is right just try to avoid the greasy meals. Drinking alcohol in excess should not be done when taking Cialis, drinking too much can increase the side effects such as headache and lowering blood pressure.

3) How long does it take to work and how long does it last?
If your doctor has you on the 36-hour treatment then in most men it can work as fast as 30 minutes and last for 36 hours. Now this is not the case for all men but many have talked about Cialis lasting for a whole weekend which would start on a Friday evening and still be effective until Sunday night. Remember to talk to your physician about which treatment is the correct one for you.
