Well, I think we have a new favorite as our “personal lubricant” in the bedroom, and it’s one that has garnered many snickers when buying in the stores.  Hell, we had a problem not buying it at Wal-Mart without looking over our shoulders to check and make sure no one saw us picking up the sexual lubricant with a rather dubious, and obviously sexual name as a lubricant that makes the man’s penis so slippery that it just goes right in, like an asteroid or something as the name implies.

Astroglide lubricant has been around for a long time, and has quite the reputation for making things a lot easier when it comes to getting the woman ready for sex, and also for getting a man’s penis lubed up so that the insertion isn’t so hard (no pun intended).  It’s also great for women who experience any sort of vaginal dryness, because it works on contact and doesn’t dry up quickly, like I’ve had happen with KY jelly before, especially the one that warms to the touch.

And by the way, Astroglide beats the KY warming liquid hands down when it comes to long lasting, non drying and non irritating lubrication.  We found that using the KY warming liquid actually hurt my penis and made it scab over several times because it didn’t properly protect against too much friction if things got dry “down there”. 

The Astroglide is excellent not only for it’s utility as a lubricant because it is super slippy-slidey and makes sex fun and tantalizing, but it also lasts without drying up, and potentially causing painful chafing to the penis and the vagina.  It has no odor that I can smell, and it lasts for a while (I mean the bottle itself lasts a while because you don’t have to keep reapplying it since it stays slick for a while).

It’s also great for other types of sexual foreplay, such as lubing up one another and playing slipnslide, and also for the ladies to give their men a little “hand love” if you know what I mean.  Overall, I’d say that so far, Astroglide is probably one of the better sexual lubricants I’ve used.  Sure, it doesn’t promote longevity for men in bed like some other gels that create numbness, but it does great as a plain old lubricant. 

Just a quick note that we’ve added an overview of the Enzyte male enhancement product due to interest in the product that came out several years ago, of which many consider the pioneer in alternatives to prescription male sexual enhancement drugs. 

Not only does Viagra act as a stimulant to make men get erections, or to have longer erections or help with erectile dysfunction, but new research is pointing to the fact that many men find the medical pill for erectile dysfunction and male sexual enhancement to also be an aphrodisiac of sorts, or an instrument which gets them in the mood.

The way that Viagra supposedly also helps with actual sex drive, or desire enhancement, is that it enhances the stimulation of a hormone called oxytocin, which is naturally emitted by both men and women when in a sexually aroused state, and this leads to the craving for sex.  More specifically, an enzyme that the sildenafil (the generic drug name for what is marketed as Viagra here in the US) blocks, actually has a negative effect on the emission of the pleasure hormone oxytocin that is linked to orgasming, lactation and even labor in women, and also linked to orgasms and sexual stimulation in men. 

So, they are thinking that because of this blockage of the enzyme, sildenafil is having an indirect effect on sexual intimacy by actually promoting more intimacy and cravings for intimacy - AKA aphrodisiac properties.  Scientists are thinking that since oxytocin has other relationships to human bonding and relationships, as well as the ability for humans to bond with one another and also to enhance certain body stress coping mechanisms, so there may actually be additional therapeutic medical benefits uses for sildenafil in the future.  And there you have it! 

Viagra is one of the most popular and publicized drugs used to treat male impotence or erectile dysfunction. It is wise, if using this medication, to know how it works and also the precautions or side effects of this drug.  Another consideration when taking Viagra is possible drug interactions.
 Viagra works by helping a male, who has had a problem with impotence, have an erection. To have Viagra be effective, the man must be sexually aroused first. 
There are side effects that any man who is taking Viagra needs to be aware of.  Viagra can cause changes in the retina that can effect the way that we see color.  Another possible side effect of Viagra can be headaches. This is a big reason why so many men seek out alternatives to Viagra. 
 It is important to note that Viagra is a prescription drug with good reason.  It’s necessary for a doctor to know your medical history and current list of drugs you are taking.  Viagra can have a side effect of causing heart attacks and your doctor needs to know if there is a risk of this in each individual patient before prescribing it.
 For men taking nitroglycerin for angina or chest pain, there can be an adverse interaction of Viagra and nitroglycerin together.  This is another good reason Viagra is a prescription medication, so that these potential problems can be assesed before prescribing it for an individual.
 There is also, as a possible side effect, the risk of dependency upon Viagra to achieve an erection. A man who is taking Viagra recreationally and did not need it physically, may suffer from this side effect.  Another possible side effect of Viagra ia a long lasting erection for hours that is painful and this requires medical attention. Viagra alternatives are also popular because of this side effect, because men are afraid of the embarrassment of a nonstop erection and do not want to go to the emergency room with such an odd problem. 
 Not all men who take Viagra will experience any or all of the side effects, but it’s important to be aware of what they are so you can be informed.  Viagra can, if used properly, enhance the quality of life and intimacy and help a man’s self esteem.

Apparentlyh one successful British drugstore chain called “Boots” thinks that a great way to show their customer appreciation on the national “holiday of love” Valentines Day, is to offer Viagra, the immensely popular sexual enhancement drug for men, without a prescription for a trial period.  That doesn’t mean it’s free though, as customers still must pay, but it means much easier access for Viagra conneseurs or eager beavers who want to try the drug out and see how it works for them.

Reportedly there will be screening questions for men over a certain age, to avoid potential complications in older men, but younger men will just have to answer a few fairly basic health screening questions for their one time prescription-free Viagra pass.

This is a genius marketing ploy by the drug giant Pfizer to get new customers because after the initial prescription is gone, men must then get the scrip renewed by a doctor’s authorization to refill the drug if they like how it worked for them.  Viagra alternatives such as the immensely popular VigRX here in the US will have to do for men here who want a prescription free alternative in the US though, and that’s not necessarily a bad thing!  The British trial is expected to last around six months and may continue if it proves successful. 

VigRX is an herbal sexual enhancement formula made for men that actually distinguishes itself in a few ways.  You’re probably thinking, sure there seems to be thousands of these products that all seem to have the same claims, and hey, you may have even tried one or a few (as I have, I love this stuff, it really can make a huge difference in your sex life, and I’m a very sexual person).  VigRX is advertised in some of the biggest magazines too, and actually has a good reputation for high quality, and for doing the things it says it can do on the label and on the ads. 

VigRX is a good product in its original form, but they’ve recently introduced a newer and more potent sexual enhancement product called VigRX Plus that has some additional benefits as well.  They are both all natural formulas, which is always a good thing.  Remember not too long back, the FDA issuing warnings on several “natural” male enhancement products that actually were found to have traces of prescription men’s enhancement drugs like Cialis and Viagra in them? 

That’s not a good thing.  These can be potentially dangerous if the wrong guy uses them, so an all natural, guaranteed formula is a must if you are looking for prescription alternatives, and VigRX and VigRX Plus are two of the most potent and highest quality sexual enhancement products out there.  For a full review on these products see VigRX Review.  It’ll give you a full scoop on why Male Enhancement Magazine likes this product so much, and it can make so many men smile a lot more. 

Hint : A big part of the reason VigRX works better is that it contains a patented ingredient which has proven to make herbal tinctures absorb more easily into the blood stream, so they go to work, fast, and effectively, they don’t just “fizzle out” as soon as they hit your digestive juices.

Just an update on the product review front here at MEM.  We reviewed another hugely popular male enhancement alternative supplement that is supposed to both enhance penis size as well as enhance sexual longevity and libido (kind of an “all in one” male enhancement supplement if you will).  It’s called VigRX, and you can see the full review here : VigRX Review

One of the unique things about VigRX is that it is widely publicized, it’s been in magazines like Rolling Stone, Stuff, Maxim and others that a lot of us would recognize, and it’s a fairly well known alternative to the likes of Viagra, Cialis, and the other myriad of male enhancement drugs out there on the market. 

This means it’s a natural alternative by the way…  but I digressed.  What I was saying that was different about VigRX is that it is one of the few natural male enhancement products that does not contain the herb Yohimbe as a primary stimulant. 

Yohimbe is actually a fairly controversial herb that has been used in some other male enhancement supplements, and some men have chosen to steer away from using it after having negative side effects (granted, some men may experience zero effects from it, and it in fact can work  very well). 

But VigRX does not have yohimbe, and it works on a different level than a lot of other herbal products. The Yohimbe naturally occuring herb is actually part of the bark from a tree that is native to the forests of Western Africa.

The herb was used by herbalists, medicine men and more primitive doctors to treat coughs, fevers and leprosy, but it was also commonly used as an aphrodisiac and to help men be more virile (this translates into having erections more often and sustaining them for longer periods).

People with any type of health condition should seriously consider taking anything with yohimbe in it, because it is an herb that should be taken under supervision if you have low blood pressure, diabetes, and a number of other physical conditions that may interact badly with this herb.  It is also reported to sometimes cause unpleasant side effects in those who may be perfectly healthy as well, so it is not an herb to be taken lightly apparently.

The VigRX male enhancement products contains a unique compound called Epimedium which houses a flavonoid called “icariin”. Icariin is what we call a “cGMP-specific PDE5 inhibitor”, which is chemically the same as one of the inhibitors found in Viagra, Cialis and Levitra.  Here is the review : VigRX reviews. 

I’ve got a new product to tell you about in the ever changing and expanding world of natural alternatives to erectile dysfunction, inability to achieve or sustain a pleasurable orgasm, and most other pain in the butt sexual frustrations. 

It’s a blue pill, just like another famous sexual dysfunction pill we all know about (hint : it begins with a “V”), but this one is natural, and contains a lot of vitamins and nutrient packed ingredients that do not include stimulants (a good thing in this case).  It’s called Enhance 9. 

It’s a product that improves your sex life basically, by enhancing and prolonging the sexual experience from start to finish and also does it by addressing sexual issue immediately, rather than waiting around for an hour before you can perform, if you know what I mean.  Check out more information on the new product here : Enhance 9

As the male enhancement and the penis enlargement markets expand and become more and more mainstream and plentiful, savvy men are taking notice of the possibilities now open to them by these new male enhancement products. But, as with any other somewhat major purchase and self-improvement hope, most men wonder, which product to choose? 

The average new customer does not have a good grasp on how penis enlargement and sexual enhancement products work. To this end, lots of men find themselves comparing men’s sexual products they have never heard of and trying to decide which one is better, without “really” knowing if they’re being fed a line of bull or not. A perfect example of this consumer confusion is the differences between penis enlargement pills and penis enlargement patches.

The biggest differences between these two popular forms of men’s sexual enhancement products is the means by which the active ingredients are delivered as well as the formulas within them and how they act in your body. There has not been any significant evidence or studies showing that one works better than the other, by the way.

As everybody knows, any type of pill works by being dissolved and digested in the stomach, and entering the blood stream from there, where it carries out it’s designated function in the man’s body.

Once the stomach acids eats the capsule or pill apart, the substances pass through the liver and into the blood stream and start doing their work. In order for these penis pills to be active they must be consumed at designated intervals throughout the day, such as twice a day, once with breakfast, once with dinner, or whatever the maker has assigned as your scheduled timing.

The penis enlargement patch, however, works by delivering the active ingredients through the skin, which then is delivered “transdermally”, or through the skin, directly going into the blood stream. Thus, it has been assumed that the substances avoid some of the processing that occurs in the stomach and liver.

This just gives the penis enlargement patch a slight advantage over a penis enlargement pill, in that it does not have to be remembered a couple times a day, as usually the patches are changed once every two to three days.  The delivery may also be a bit more consistent with a patch, and is ideal for those of you that may forget to take pills a couple times a day, or just hate to take pills for whatever reason.

The ingredients mentioned in the title of this post are actually two formulas that are the method behind some of the most successful products in the penis enlargement arena. In fact,  these are the very ingredients that make a male enhancement pill or patch work effectively, it just depends on the quality of the product and the actual solution of this ingredient that is infused in the supplements or formulas taken.

These naturally derived substances are normally chosen after extensive research of their effects on the human body and must be of the highest quality if they are to do their intended job in the male body, and on the penis.

The effectiveness of any such product is always based on the quality of its ingredients, especially since it is natural or herbal in nature. For instance, ProSolution Pills, which is a penis enlargement product, and VolumePills, which are a “semen volume booster”, are both made of a list of natural ingredients, some of them herbal and some not.

The two most abundant ingredients for the above-mentioned products are called Drilizen and Solidilin. While they are both completely natural, these two substances are trademarked names designed to protect the formula behind ProSolution Pills and VolumePills.

The function of Drilizen is to increase the body’s release of nitric oxide, which is a naturally produced substance that promotes the dilation of blood vessels which equals faster, longer and harder erections. 

The nitric oxide also relaxes the smooth muscle that allows the blood to flow into the penis and fill the two sponge-like tissues called Corpora Cavernosa. Drilizen also contains an active ingredient called protodioscin, which helps increase the secretion of a hormone that regulates the production of testosterone by the body.

Solidilin is a compound made of substances that actually have an effect upon the psychological part of sex - which, as we all know has a huge impact on our sexual performance as men.

While Drilizen, Zinc, Taj and Momordica take care of the physical side, Solidilin, Reishi Mushrooms and Musli make sure that the motivation grows and pleasure follows. One of the substances that make up Solidilin was found to dramatically improve sexual motivation (desire and instantaneous longing for sex) and the quality of sex.

The study was conducted by the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences belonging to the University of Sciences, Malaysia. Solidilin also contains L-Dopa, the substance used by the body to synthesize dopamine. For those who do not know this, dopamine is a neurotransmitter heavily involved with the sense of pleasure humans feel after engaging in naturally rewarding activities, like having sex, eating food or taking recreational drugs.

Drilizen and Solidilin play a very important role in helping increase penis size and the frequency and quality of sex. Acting on both the physical and psychological fronts, these substances combine with the other ingredients of ProSolution Pills and VolumePills to deliver a safe and effective way of increasing penis size and sexual pleasure.
