Study of Viagra & Male Impotence

From the website: 'Researchers are studying if taking a small dose of Viagra every night can prevent impotence. Though you wouldn't think you'd get much out of Viagra while you're sleeping, it turns out that nighttime erections - most men get three or four every night - are crucial to maintaining potency. The nocturnal erection, which allows blood and oxygen to flow to the genitals, is nature's way of keeping the penis in working order. The theory is that anything that increases the intensity and duration of nighttime erections is good for long-term potency.
Meanwhile, it's worth noting that the best way to prevent impotence is to keep your veins from clogging up in the first place. Don't smoke, eat healthy foods, lose weight and lower your cholesterol.'

The Easy Erection: Sexologists Experiment with Viagra

An interesting essay written by two sexologists who experiment with Viagra. They are concerned that the emotional or psychological aspects of erectile dysfunction (stress, anxiety, disconnection from partner, lack of communication) are not being addressed by doctors prescribing Viagra (which helps the physical ailment).
Note: It is very difficult to prove that sexual disorders are physical or psychological. They are an interconnected mix of both.

Want a Good Sex Life? Watch your Health, Lifestyle

For 20 years, the Harvard Health Professionals Follow-up Study has gathered important information about men’s health. In 2000, it added questions about sexuality to its semiannual surveys. According to the Harvard Men’s Health Watch, the new data offer insight on how men can maintain a satisfying sex life as they age.

Chronic illness and the medications used to treat them account for many of the sexual problems of older men. Sexual dysfunction was most prevalent in men with illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, stroke, and even depression. The Harvard Men’s Health Watch points out that one of the striking results of the study was that men with prostate cancer are 10 - 15 times more likely to experience sexual dysfunction than men without the disease - however, these sexual difficulties typically stem from the treatment rather than the cancer itself.

“All in all, men who remain well are less likely to develop sexual dysfunction with age than men who fall ill,” says Harvey B. Simon, M.D., editor of the Harvard Men’s Health Watch. “And men who take good care of themselves enjoy substantial protection from both illness and sexual decline. The secret to preserving sexuality is to stay healthy and to build healthy relationships - and both require a series of wise choices throughout life.”

Analyse any human emotion, no matter how far it may be removed from the sphere of sex, and you are sure to discover somewhere the primal impulse, to which life owes its perpetuation. ... The primitive stages can always be re-established; the primitive mind is, in the fullest meaning of the word, imperishable. ... Mans most disagreeable habits and idiosyncrasies, his deceit, his cowardice, his lack of reverence, are engendered by his incomplete adjustment to a complicated civilisation. It is the result of the conflict between our instincts and our culture. (Sigmund Freud)
