Myth Busting Viagra

The “Wonder Drug”

We all know this phrase in connection with Viagra - the “wonder drug”. The thing is, that name or label can be misleading. What many fail to understand or refuse to believe is that Viagra is not the all powerful drug that they want it to be. Viagra will not magically transform your current sexual state and make you living, breathing Casanova.

Many people claim that Viagra changed and enhanced their sexual lives. This may be true to some extent but it should not be misconstrued as to think that Viagra is some form of aphrodisiac or hormone enhancer. This is also not the case!

Anti-Pregnancy Pill?

Believe it or not, but there are some out there that have been misinformed and thought to think that Viagra not only increases your sexual experience but it also helps avert unwanted or accidental pregnancies!

This is definitely a myth, people! This absurd notion that men if they take Viagra not only get a great sexual encounter doesn’t have to worry about getting a girl knocked up! Viagra is not a substitute for your straightforward methods for safe sex. Viagra is not replacement for a condom.

Fights Off STDs?

Another myth that has been circulating around is that it supposedly can fight of sexually transmitted diseases. Despite the (misleading) label, “wonder drug”, this doesn’t mean that man taking Viagra will become impervious to any sexual transmitted disease known to man. In fact, it will do nothing from you contracting an STD! Again, wear a condom and practice safe sex practices if you don’t want to get an STD. It’s that simple. Don’t rely on a so-called “wonder drug” when it never claimed to be one in the first place.

The Reality

The reality is, Viagra is just a pill. A pill that helps men who a particular condition. This condition is called erectile dysfunction or ED. It is not a cure for ED, mind you. It just treats the symptoms of ED. Nothing more, nothing less.

So what can Viagra do? Well, it can:

• Relax and enlarger the veins and arteries in the penis so that more blood can pass through there
• Inhibit the blood from flowing out causing the blood to stay down there which then causes what we know as an erection

But there’s a bit of a catch. A man must be already sexually excited or aroused for Viagra to work. Again, it does not create the excitement for you but rather helps the person create the proper, physical response when one is sexually stimulated.

If you are just not sexually excited or aroused, no matter what, even if you take Viagra, nothing is going to happen down there. That’s the reality, folks. And that is why there will be cases of Viagra not working for people. The cause maybe that the person was not sexual excited enough and not because the Viagra was a dud.
