So you’ve been prescribed Viagra. Congratulations! You’ve just been informed that your medical problem has a solution. You might even feel relieved, as the thought of going through life without knowing how to satisfy a woman might be a bit daunting. But hold on, there’s more to this story than you think. While Viagra might solve your problem, it doesn’t mean that your relationship will be magically transformed into one that is enjoyable for both of you. In fact, it might be the exact opposite. Here are some of the things you might experience if Viagra doesn’t work out perfectly for you.
Reduced Pleasure For Both Of You
Let’s be honest, when a doctor writes you a prescription for something you’ve never tried (and may possibly never want to try), it’s kind of a gut punch. Especially when that something is supposed to make it easier for you to get your pleasure from sex. But if it makes sense from a medical perspective (Low Erectile Dysfunction, or simply known as ED for short), then it’s a possibility that you might not be able to live up to the promises of the little blue pill. It’s easy to get excited about the idea of having better sex. But as much as you might want to experiment with different positions to see what works best for you, remember that your doctor will have other ideas about what treatment to suggest. If they see that you haven’t opened up to them about this issue, then they might prescribe something else. Which is a shame, because, as we’ve established, you probably didn’t want to try something new anyway.
Increased Appetite
Speaking of shame, let’s not forget about the little blue pill itself. You’re already taking something that was designed to help you with another problem. And even though it might solve the one you’re experiencing now, it doesn’t mean that your increased appetite will be a good thing. Remember, Viagra was designed for use in cases of ED. So it might make sense that your body wouldn’t know how to behave without the chemical booster. But since it was never meant to be a replacement for food, it’s quite possible that you’ll want to eat more as a result of taking it. As a general rule, doctors recommend that patients who want to lose weight try to do so gradually. Especially since rapid weight loss can result in health complications.
Inability To Get An Erection
If you’re already experiencing issues with ED, then you know how frustrating it can be to try and get an erection. Especially since the last thing you want to do when you’re already undergoing treatment is to go through the whole process of trying to stimulate an erection again. That’s why it’s important to work with your doctor to find the right solution for you. But even when you do find the perfect treatment, it doesn’t always mean that you’ll be able to maintain an erection. Especially if you start skipping doses or going off medication suddenly. To prevent further complications, it’s important to be honest with yourself and your doctor about what’s going on. If you think that you might be experiencing any of these issues as a result of taking the little blue pill, then it might be time to try something new. Or at least switch treatments.
Other Health Complications
There are a lot of side effects that go along with taking Viagra. The most common one is headaches. This is actually a fairly common side effect, especially among older adults who take the drug. But even if you happen to be one of the many who experience this particular issue, it doesn’t necessarily mean that your other health concerns will be alleviated by the drug. For example, some people experience a dry mouth as a result of taking the pill, which can cause problems if you’re already struggling with a condition like diabetes. Or if you have any heart disease or history of stroke, then there’s a chance that the pill might not be the best choice for you.
As you can see, there are a lot of issues that you need to think about. The good news is that none of these issues are actually bad news. As long as you realize that there’s no magic pill that will solve all of your problems, then you can start feeling hopeful about the future. Even if things don’t work out perfectly, you’ll have the experience to look back on and say, “At least I tried.” And that, my friend, is truly the most important thing.
