Erectile dysfunction is a problem that generates a lot of shame among men, this condition can lower the self-esteem of any men and also generate a lot of problems at the moment of sexual intercourse. The stats say that about 1 out of 10 men over the age of 40 in Australia suffer from this condition and also about 1 out of 5 men over this age also suffer from a kind of erection problem, so it’s a problem that is pretty common and that is growing with the passing of the years.
This problem is usually kept a secret as it’s embarrassing for men to admit that they have this problem and this is the biggest issue at the time to treat it as many of them prefer to avoid sex rather than seeking a solution. There are many medicines that help this problem go away, many of them that are also sold in Australia. One of the most popular treatments available in the market is Viagra. Viagra is popular around the world and it has also gained a lot of numbers in Australia mainly because there are a wide variety of physical and online stores that sell it. The stores that sell it online provide an extra sense of confidentiality and this is also another plus at the moment the user decide to buy it. Companies that sell this product online usually have lower prices since there is more competition and also they manage the purchase in a 100% confidential way, they send the product in a discrete envelope to reassure that the client´s interests are protected.
About Viagra prescription
The user can get Viagra online without a doctor´s prescription and this is another one of the advantages the user has at the moment of the purchase. The main component of Viagra is sildenafil which is also the main component of other medicines proven to fight erectile dysfunction. Viagra works by relaxing the muscles around the penis, it allows blood to flow to the penis with more ease. This medicine takes 20 to 40 minutes to work once the user has taken it. The effect is pretty powerful but Viagra can lose its effectiveness if the user has eaten food high in fat. This treatment will help men but it isn’t miraculous either, the user must have sexual desire in order for this medicine to work.
Viagra advantages and side effects
There are many advantages to Viagra but there are also side effects that can be dangerous so Viagra is a medicine that must be taken with extreme care. This medicine must never be taken in combination with medicines that have nitrates in them. Among the side effects the user might experience are headaches, dizziness, numbness in certain extremities of the body, sudden vision loss, hearing loss, chest pains and priapism (which is a painful erection that lasts for more than 4 hours) among others.
If the user experiences any of these symptoms in a severe or in a steady way then he should contact a doctor immediately and get assistance right away as this can leave them with permanent damage. In conclusion this medicine is pretty good but it also has a downside and must always be taken with responsibility preferably consulting a doctor first, Viagra has helped many men.
