However, you know your sex life is suffering, and of more importance is the fact that erectile dysfunction (ED) can indicate medical problems. Only your doctor has the skills and resources at their disposal to make a proper diagnosis and to treat you effectively.   Men frequently say that they don't know how to go about telling the doctor their... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/74769/ed http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/70795/ed Wed, 13 May 2009 09:40:07 -0400 Jerry Kennard Dealing as it does with particles at the microscopic level, nanotechnology within medicine is a new and developing area - already being referred to as nanomedicine. Future applications have been identified in terms of Qdots that can locate cancer, nanoparticles that can then deliver drugs directly to cancer cells and even nanoshells that can focus heat from infrared light to cancer cells and destroy them.   In relation to erectile... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/70795/ed http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/62415/dysf Thu, 02 Apr 2009 07:59:00 -0400 Jerry Kennard It may seem a little odd reading the words ‘popular' and ‘treatment' in the same sentence. Does anyone really want treatment? It clearly implies there is something wrong with you. So we start from the perspective of actually needing treatment and having to seek out the treatment that will lead to greatest satisfaction. On that basis a pill is always going to be more popular than surgery, or is it?   Before getting to the... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/62415/dysf http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/63315/gene Mon, 16 Mar 2009 07:17:29 -0400 Jerry Kennard Viagra, soon followed by Cialis and Levitra, helped pave the way for innovative treatments of erectile dysfunction. Future medications will seek to capitalize on these positive effects. It is inevitable that pharmaceutical companies will look to develop drugs that work more quickly, more effectively and have fewer side effects. After all, although existing medications are highly effective, around 40 percent of men find the effects of limited or... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/63315/gene http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/60891/talk Mon, 09 Mar 2009 08:09:00 -0400 Jerry Kennard Understand the Need: If your man is affected by erection problems it's worth bearing in mind that in 80 per cent of erectile dysfunction (ED) cases there is some underlying physical cause. This can range from problems with blood pressure, to heart disease, to diabetes, and a few more besides. Even if erection problems only occur from time to time they should still be taken seriously.   Don't Wait for Him: If plan A is to wait until he... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/60891/talk http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/56285/signs Tue, 20 Jan 2009 11:53:06 -0500 Jerry Kennard A recent initiative by Solvey Pharmaceuticals, Inc. seeks to encourage women to look for the signs of low testosterone in their men. Low testosterone, otherwise known as hypogonadism or Low T, gives rise to symptoms like fatigue, depressed mood and increased waistlines. Because women are something of a potent force when it comes to getting their men to see a doctor, Solvey Pharmaceuticals are providing a toll-free number throughout January, to... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/56285/signs http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/54765/care Wed, 07 Jan 2009 09:24:40 -0500 Jerry Kennard Many products have the potential to interact with medication commonly prescribed for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). Not all interactions will necessarily be harmful, but some could be. The website Public Citizen has produced a list of 56 products which, they say, have the potential to interact with the three most commonly used medications for ED: sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis) and Vardenafil (Levitra).   Medications... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/54765/care http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/52369/pro Mon, 15 Dec 2008 06:26:56 -0500 Jerry Kennard We've increasingly come to associate treatment for erectile dysfunction with medication, but the vacuum pump remains a viable option for many men. In this Sharepost I take a look at one of the older yet more established treatments for ED and weigh up its pro's and con's.   It is variously referred to as a penis pump, a vacuum device, or a vacuum constriction device (VCD). The kit itself is a fairly simple device comprising a plastic... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/52369/pro http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/50175/moto Tue, 25 Nov 2008 09:32:38 -0500 Jerry Kennard A recent survey published in the International Journal of Impotence Research, points to motorcycles as a cause of erectile dysfunction. The survey, based on findings from 150 men in Japan, suggests that 46 percent of riders who use their bikes for just three hours every weekend, had problems achieving an erection and emptying their bladder.   This study supports previous findings in 2006, in which a hefty 70 percent of riders claimed to... http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/50175/moto http://www.healthcentral.com/erectile-dysfunction/c/29454/49547/free Thu, 20 Nov 2008 10:29:13 -0500 Jerry Kennard Every weekend, at the Plaza de la Ciudadela in Mexico City, hundreds of seniors gather to dance and to socialize. The venue was also recently chosen as the platform to announce that men over the age of 70 will be entitled to free Viagra, following an assessment of need.   Mayor Marcelo Ebrand Casaubon, announced that from December 1st, free doses of Viagra, Levitra or Cialis would be available.
