Yes, Viagra may work for some women, but not all. Viagra is effectively used by men as a treatment for erectile dysfunction. The main job of Viagra, which made this little blue pill popular all over the world, is to help men with ED get and maintain firm erections for sexual intercourse. Interestingly, a new study funded by Pfizer (Viagra manufacturer) shows that Viagra may actually play role in treating female sexual dysfunction. But not for all women; Viagra was found effective in treating sexual side effects of antidepressants in women taking these drugs. About 70% of women taking antidepressant medications suffer from some type of sexual dysfunction as a side effect.
98 women were involved in the study, which was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. All of those women experienced sexual dysfunction as a side effect of antidepressants. 72 percent of the women involved in the study, who took Viagra pills, reported improvements in their sexual functions. The most significant gain those women have reported was improved ability to reach satisfactory orgasms. Other improvements included enhanced sexual arousal, enjoyment and desire.
Viagra may help improve the sexual ability and treat sexual dysfunction cased by antidepressants in women, but all other studies and researches made/funded by Pfizer didn’t conclude any remarkable effects of Viagra on women in general.
Anyway, if new studies can prove that Viagra also works for women, I think Pfizer will have to change the color of the pill. Maybe it should become the half blue, half pink pill! In fact, you can save yourself some money if you buy 100 mg tablets and cut them in half; you take the blue half and your wife takes the pink one, and then enjoy fireworks in bed. JK!

Ok, this is a very hilarious video I found on YouTube originally posted by ComedyTime. During an interview, John McCain talks about his issues with erectile dysfunction. It looks like McCain also has some other issues with drugs and medical insurance plans. Anyway, enjoy this funny video:

Yes, don’t be surprised! Researches have shown that watermelon is rich with an amino acid called citrulline, which helps relaxe blood vessels improving blood flow to the heart, penis and throughout the body in general. This is essentially what Viagra and other erectile dysfunction (ED) drugs do.
The big question now is: how much watermelon is equivalent to one Viagra pill?
If that amount costs lower than $10 USD (the normal price of one “brand” Viagra pill), then watermelon could be a cheap, natural alternative to Viagra and it may become men’s favorite diet food. It helps that 92% of watermelon’s content is water (that’s why it’s called “watermelon”), also two cups of watermelon have only about 100 calories, and in addition to that it has low fat and no cholesterol.
But scientists don’t know yet how much watermelon you’ll need to get effective results in treating erectile dysfunction. Researches are yet to provide a definitive answer on whether watermelon could be an effective natural alternative to ED prescription drugs or not.
On the other hand, some scientists and experts think that it’s ridiculous to say that watermelon is a “natural Viagra”. They argue that even if watermelon could help treat ED, it’d require a lot of watermelon to do so which is not a practical solution to the problem.

These are considered the best erectile dysfunction (ED) treatment pills and they are the top rated drugs in the male impotence category. Viagra is considered as the #1 ED pill, Cialis comes next, and last but not least Levitra. The three are FDA-approved prescription drugs that are mainly used to treat erectile dysfunction (male impotence) in addition to some other conditions, such as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and others.
The generic name of Viagra is Sildenafil Citrate. Viagra is a little blue pill that starts working within 30 minutes (lees or more) and lasts for about 4 hours. Viagra tablets come in three strengths (dosage): 25 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg.
Cialis (generic name: Tadalafil) is better known as the weekend pill because it can last up to 36 hours of hardness! The strengths of Cialis tablets are: 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg.
Levitra has the generic name Vardenafil. Levitra doses come in four strengths: 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg with an effect that can last for approximately 4 hours.
These three drugs work by the same means and they have almost similar side effects, of which the most common are headache and facial flushing.
Follow your doctor’s directions as described in your prescription when taking any of these drugs and seek immediate medical attention if you experience any unusual side effects.

Some people think that Viagra (sildenafil citrate) is fun to take because it makes wonders in bed! In fact, there are many people (young and old) who take Viagra without having a doctor’s prescription for it or without even consulting their healthcare provider. Viagra is a prescription drug that should only be used by men who suffer from erectile dysfunction (ED) or some other health conditions where Viagra is prescribed as a treatment.
It’s a bad habit that young men who don’t have ED are taking Viagra frequently in the hope of getting the most out of each sex session. An interesting article discusses this issue on this page.
