Viagra vs Bio-identical Hormones

 
Viagra and Cialis:  The wrong solution to a very common worldwide problem.
 
Viagra (Sildenafil) and Cialis (Tadalafil) are the most commonly used treatments for Erectile Dysfunction (ED) available today.  Viagra and Cialis are not Bio-identical Hormones.  These two synthetic pharmacologic agents work strictly as vasodilators (compounds that dilate blood vessels) allowing for the increase of blood flow to the penile area facilitating an erection during the normal sexual response.  It is worth mentioning that these agents work only to make you functional with respect to the erection but they have no effect at all on the psychological desire of the normal sexual response known as libido or sexual drive.  This is an extremely important part of the normal sexual response which is predominantly influenced by the Testosterone levels in the body, however these medications are not for everyone.  Besides having limited benefits on some patients, there are some significant and concerning side effects associated with their use.  Both medications are not recommended with the use of nitrates (a type of medication used in the management of certain cardiovascular diseases and high blood pressure) as they may cause life-threatening drops in blood pressure known as hypotension. Also, they are not recommended in patients with liver & kidney disease, in men with a history of a recent stroke or heart attack, uncontrolled high or severely low blood pressure, unstable angina, or other conditions that would make sexual activity not medically advisable.  Other common side effects may include flushing, headaches, indigestion, rash and diarrhea.
Since Viagra’s approval by the FDA in 1998 for the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction, we have witnessed some amazing developments in the medical treatment of ED.  Besides significantly helping with penile erection, Testosterone is one of the main sex hormones which has been shown to significantly increase libido, so effective climax and orgasm can be reached.

 

Viagra and Cialis may improve erectile function but have no influence on libido and the orgasmic phase of the sexual response.  All this is mainly a function of Testosterone.
  • In other words Viagra and Cialis may only help with function but do nothing for your sex drive, urge and the true pleasures and enjoyment of a normal healthy sexual response. 
 
So what can we do about this serious problem?
If you suffer from any of these symptoms please understand, you are not alone.  Don’t fall into the common belief that this is a normal process of aging.  This is an extremely common worldwide problem affecting men today.
  •  Most people are not aware that this problem can be easily corrected.
By simply correcting the levels of the deficient hormones, your own body will react the same way it used to when you were young.  By replacing the declining levels of Testosterone with a simple skin application of a “biologically identical” hormone cream (Bio-identical Testosterone) the above symptoms could resolve in a matter of weeks.  Bio-identical Testosterone cream has been successfully used for decades now with a proven track record of both excellent efficacy and safety.  It significantly improves the physical erection time and strength in addition to considerably increasing your sexual drive (libido), sexual energy, penile sensitivity and a much improved ability to reach orgasmic climax.
  • Women also have a significant problem called female menopause. You have probably heard people talking about females at a certain age getting dry skin, hair loss, hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, problems sleeping, weight gain, concentration problems, decrease in energy & motivation, lost interest in sex, vaginal dryness and painful intercourse just to name a few.   This can also be easily corrected in a matter of weeks with Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy.
