Can Viagra help you keep going during sex no matter what? Is it a medication that can always help you last as long as you want?
If you are not lasting as long in bed as you'd like then there might be solutions for you, but Viagra may or may not be one of them. Learn what is the right choice for you to help you keep going during sex.
Viagra can only help you last longer in bed if your problem is getting an erection or losing it too quickly – Viagra can’t help with the following problems:
Yes, if you have erectile dysfunction – if you aren’t lasting as long as you want in bed because you can’t get or keep an erection easily, then Viagra could help. Viagra improves the blood flow to your penis making it easier to get and keep an erection when you’re aroused. Viagra won’t improve your sex life if you don’t have erectile dysfunction – if your sex life is not as you want it to be, but this is not related to keeping or maintaining erections then Viagra is not for you. Viagra isn’t suitable for everyone – it is designed to be taken by men aged 18 years and over and not for women and children. Viagra should not be taken if you:
Viagra makes it easier to get an erection for up to 6 hours – It can take 30–120 mins to feel the full effect of Viagra, with most people getting an erection an hour after taking it. You can take it any time up to 4 hours before you want to have sex.
The duration varies from person to person – although, it has been known to last up to 6 hours with sexual stimulation the length of time it will last for varies between individuals. Normally, the effects of the medication tend to wear off 2–3 hours after first taking it.
You can still lose your erection after orgasm – Viagra doesn’t stop your erection going down after you ejaculate so you will likely lose your erection after you do. If you are having trouble orgasming too early then you may need separate treatment for premature ejaculation.
You can have multiple sessions on Viagra – although your erection may go after ejaculating, you can continue to have sex for the time that your Viagra continues to work. You may have to wait a short time between one erection and the next, but as you would do normally after ejaculating.
What can limit the effect of Viagra? – there are certain factors which can have an effect on how Viagra works. These can include:
Which medications last the longest?– Cialis (tadalafil). Although, Viagra is the most commonly known erectile dysfunction medication, Cialis has the longest lasting effects. Cialis also involves less planning but the side effects can also last longer too.
You can also take low-dosage Cialis Daily everyday, in which case you could always have the effect of getting erections easier.
Other medications – there are other medications that can help your erections last longer:
There are other non-medical treatments for ED available, which include:
Counselling – erectile dysfunction can be caused by stress and anxiety and so seeking professional help from a counsellor can help relieve the symptoms. Life-changing issues or just everyday stress from work or home life can be enough to cause erectile dysfunction. Talking with a counsellor can help and it may also help to include your partner in these sessions as well. Counselling can help you last longer long-term if it works.
Devices – penis pumps or penis rings can improve penile firmness through their encouragement of blood flow to the penis. These can only be used up to 30 minutes at a time. These devices have been effective in around 80% of cases. Penis rings may also help improve your erections.
Surgery – if all other ED treatments fail, then surgery can be an option.
