The Future of ED

[GoodWood]

It’s interesting to consider the future of ED treatment.

But I don’t live in the future. My ED was severe so waiting for future treatments meant having a floppy dick now.

If your ED is mild: pills work for you, you can still get rigid enough for penetration and you and your spouse or partners are satisfied, then waiting for improvements and breakthroughs makes sense.

But if, like me, you couldn’t fuck without heroic amounts of medication and devices, then waiting doesn’t feel like a good option.

Each of us has to decide the pros and cons.

ED meds are a pot of gold, investment will not be lacking.

Current meds don’t work for many people and for others give very bad side effects.

In your mind only. Can you point to any huge amount of money being spent on ED drugs currently?

The people/organizations that fund research consistently follow the path that I described. As for side effects or ineffectiveness. Any new drugs would likely work similar to the current drugs. Thus likely to have the same problems.

All drugs are now topped off by implants. Relatively easy to do, have predictable outcomes. And believe it or not. Are actually reasonably priced.

I think that the new diabetes medicine semaglutide. Better known as Ozempic will be of interest to this discussion. That drug basis was discovered something like 40 years ago. Took forever to get it isolated & patented. Now they can't make it fast enough. All the while the patent expiration is approaching. Then it will be generic & prices will fall.

If you're looking for a new ED drug. You really need to look at the research that was done many years ago.

can you just imagine the COST of stem cells in the USA when it comes available? i just recently got quoted 3600 per qtr for Medical Botox around hip area, thats 14k per year for fucking botox. Stem cell , once they apply their margin , it will be so expensive only the rich will be able to afford, just got back from mexico and stem cell cost 12,500 but in USA , you can forget it....unless insurance pays , ya right. lol

Czarr12355, that factors into what I wrote. Much like the restless leg drug example. A generic drug, while not working for some suffers. None the less has cut enough of the demand to that there isn't a way to make any money off the dwindling suffers.

Sounds just like the oral ED drugs to me. I've never heard of any decent potential meds after Viagra became generic. Then implants are getting better with less of infection risks.

Not that I like or promote the process. It is just the way it is.

thanks for this info, I had no clue and what a godsend, it was just getting to damn expensive, and I am committed to it. I have lost 80lb in 2 years. My heart health is great, I walk 50 brick minutes a day and my sex life is back after being gone, gone, gone for 7 long years.
I highly recommend the O to anyone struggling with weight. Those fat pounds are the silent killer.
