How The Penis Works

The penis is just a collection of specialized blood vessels within a tough outer sheath of connective tissue. Sexual arousal causes blood to flow into the penis by releasing NO (Nitric Oxide) from the nerves supplying the penile arteries. The blood then fills a series of blood sacks called sinusoids allowing the spongy tissue to become engorged. As the engorged tissue presses against the outer fibrous sheath, the veins normally allowing blood to freely drain from the penis become narrowed. This traps the blood in the penis and helps to maintain the erection. Continued sexual arousal keeps the penile arteries widely dilated, allowing the build-up of pressure within the circulation to keep the penis erect. Nitric Oxide (NO) produced in the tissue lining these arteries and sinusoids keeps the smooth muscle around them relaxed so that maximum distention and rigidity occurs.
 
What Can be Done to Make the Penis Work Better?
 
There are several important things that a man can do to improve his erectile function:
 
First, he can use relaxation techniques to reduce the effects of stress which can reduce the flow of blood into the penis. Next, he can work with his partner to increase sexual arousal. A high level of arousal keeps the penile arteries widely dilated due to the release of NO from nerve endings supplying those arteries. Most importantly, he can optimize NO production by the nerves and the tissue lining the penile vessels by following the Ten Steps to Better Erections. 
 
What About Prescription Medications?
 
The behavioral changes recommended in “The Ten Steps” may not always result in sufficient improvement in erectile function. Men and their partners should realize that it may take a few weeks to a month for the changes to have an effect and that these good effects will build up over time.  After waiting a sufficient amount of time, and under the supervision of a qualified health care professional, one of the three prescription medicines for ED (Cialis, Levitra or Viagra) can be added, starting at a lower than usual dose. These drugs act to increase cyclic GMP by inhibiting the enzyme, phosphodiesterase 5, that normally breaks GMP down. All of these medications can cause side effects and rare serious complications. Recent studies have shown that they do actually increase NO production. It is possible that their use could improve overall blood vessel health in addition to teating ED.

 

Testimonials

  1. 64-year-old married grandfather and cancer survivor

    “Something very interesting is happening here. Since taking these supplements, I’ve not only had better erections, but my desire has really increased. Things that haven’t gotten me aroused for many years now do, and I find myself thinking about sex much more often, like when I was a young man. Someone should measure testosterone levels before and after these supplements. I bet they’re higher”.
     
    54-year-old accountant married for 30 years
     
    “After a few weeks on the omega 3’s I knew something was very different. One morning I got up to shave and I just couldn’t stand it. I hopped back into bed for a “quickie” that turned out to be not so quick. Boy, did we have to rush to get me out of the door in time so that I would not be late for work. That has never happened before in many years of marriage. It was a very good feeling.”
     
    60-year-old physician married for 34 years
     
    “After increasing my intake of folic acid, omega 3’s and antioxidants, we were on a vacation and after having had a great meal of white fish the previous evening, we just stayed in bed the next day like honeymooners. We’ve occasionally made love two or three times in a day when on vacation years ago, but this time was a great surprise. That day was better than we had ever experienced, even on our real honeymoon many years ago.”
     
    52-year-old fire-fighter married for over 20 years
     
    “It’s been much harder than I’ve experienced throughout my life. Many times it’s been so hard that it is impossible to imagine it being any harder. Now I really do know how hard, hard is!”
     
    50-year-old pilot, and recently divorced
     
    “My girlfriend has commented that our time together keeps getting better and better every time we make love. There was one time, recently, when she wanted me to make love to her again shortly after we just finished. I was a bit nervous because it has been a long time since I have been able to multiple times. I was greatly surprised to find myself rising up to the occasion and she was very happy with my performance. I am not used to receiving compliments for my performances in bed. This was a new one for me”.
     
    42-year-old attorney and recently remarried
     
    "I've been athletic, fit and generally in very good health throughout my life. At age 42 and newly wed to my soul mate, I never really imagined our intimacy could be better, and we had not experienced any problems in this area. However, within a week of adding fish oil and folic acid supplements to my diet, both my wife and I noticed some performance enhancements. The blood flow, duration and intensity of our intimacy seemed even better. With no other notable changes in diet or exercise, it seemed these supplements had noticeable positive effects. I'm also aware of research indicating the supplements can improve cardiac health, so for each of these reasons, I take my fish oil and folic acid daily.
