Description
Viagra is a medication primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. Its active ingredient is sildenafil citrate, which belongs to a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. Viagra works by relaxing the muscles in the blood vessels of the penis, allowing for increased blood flow to the genital area when sexually stimulated.
Erectile dysfunction, characterized by the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse, can have various underlying causes, including physical conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or cardiovascular disease, as well as psychological factors such as stress or anxiety. Viagra does not address the underlying causes of ED but can help temporarily overcome the symptoms by facilitating erections.
Viagra is available in the form of oral tablets, typically taken as needed, approximately 30-60 minutes before anticipated sexual activity. The recommended dosage may vary depending on individual factors such as age, medical history, and response to treatment. It’s essential to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions provided by a healthcare professional to ensure safe and effective use.
While Viagra is generally well-tolerated, it may cause side effects in some individuals, including headache, flushing, nasal congestion, dizziness, and gastrointestinal upset. More serious side effects such as changes in vision, hearing loss, and priapism (a prolonged and painful erection lasting more than four hours) are rare but may occur. Individuals with certain medical conditions or taking certain medications may be at higher risk of experiencing adverse effects and should consult with a healthcare provider before using Viagra.
Viagra is not an aphrodisiac and does not increase sexual desire or libido. It only works in response to sexual stimulation and will not cause an erection without it. Additionally, Viagra does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or serve as a form of contraception.
Overall, Viagra is a widely used and effective treatment for erectile dysfunction, helping many men regain confidence and satisfaction in their sexual lives.
Dosage Instructions
It is available in numerous dosing strengths from 25mg, 50mg and 100mg per tablet
Recommended use is to take Viagra 30-60 minutes before sexual activity for the best effect with the total effect of the pill lasting for 4 hours, approximately. Viagra is taken orally.
Effect on Cycle
The effects of Viagra are once again simple: the individual does not have the ability to produce or maintain an erection and Viagra provides the ability. However, it cannot be stressed enough that this only pertains to those with blood flow issues. If the ED issue is based on a hormone deficiency the use of Viagra or any PED5 may not help.
In other cases, it may require both the use of hormone therapy and PED5 medication. Some individuals may also find the issue is psychologically related. Mental related ED is not uncommon and is not a blood flow or hormone issue. Others may find their issue surrounds stress to the CNS or worse and at times without remedy due to testicular or penile damage.
Side Effects
The side effects of Viagra, the most reported is abnormal or blurred vision with approximately 2.5% of users experiencing this effect. If vision issues occur users are urged to discontinue and find alternative options. All possible side effects of Viagra include:
• Vision disturbances
• Loss of hearing (sudden) or ringing in the ears
• Nausea
• Sweating
• Edema (hands, ankles, feet)
• Shortness of Breath
• Lightheaded
• Headache
• Stuffy Nose
• Back Pain
• Memory Loss
The side effects of Viagra do not appear to occur in most men. Another side effect of the PED5 may be an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, which may or may not be considered a good thing depending on your situation but will more than likely call for professional attention.
