Male Enlargement Pills - Don"t Believe the Hype
In reality there is no substance proven to permanently grow penile tissue, though those pesky e-mails clogging up your spam filter may attempt to convince you otherwise.
Well, there may not be a "magic pill" but there are vasodilators scientifically proven to increase blood flow to the penis like Cialis and Viagra.
While they may not increase growth, they do support erection and arousal.
To understand how these products work you need to know how Nitrogen Oxide and CGMP relate to the male erection.
When Nitrogen Oxide (or NO) is released from the nerve endings in the arteries feeding the penis, it causes the cells in the artery wall to make the "signal molecule" (or cGMP.
) This substance relaxes the muscles in the artery wall which dilates and feeds more blood to the penis, causing it to elongate and stiffen.
Your erection's mortal enemy is called "Phosphodiesterase" or "PDE.
" This substance breaks down cGMP and reduces blood flow.
Erection enhancers counteract this event by eliminating the PDE in the penis and allowing cGMP to build up.
It's impossible to have an erection without this crucial cGMP build up.
You may be curious about the "all-natural" substances promoted to work differently than Viagra, but guess what? Most herbal erection boosters simply help boost sluggish circulation, which inevitably impacts libido and sex performance.
So, whether you're taking Horny Goat Weed, Cnidium, gingko Biloba or a combination of all three, they all work (directly or indirectly) through the cGMP and NO processes.
When the arteries leading to the penis don't open up your erections may appear noticeably smaller, or it may difficult or impossible to become erect.
This problem is the leading cause of erectile dysfunction (ED.
) Also, many ED-afflicted men see a beneficial increase in size when they take Viagra-style medications.
However, this should not be mistaken for "penis enlargement.
" This is only the temporary correction of a symptom of a larger issue, like diabetes, high blood pressure and prostate disease.
Young, healthy men without ED may achieve more intense erections when using enhancers, but will see virtually no increase in length or girth because these substances only work by enhancing their own natural, erection process.
Therefore, a healthy individual with a 6" full erection will not be able to obtain a 9" erection under any circumstances.
Case closed.
In simple terms, look at your penis like a sponge.
It will swell and shrink with the amount of water it absorbs.
ED reduces the amount of water the sponge can absorb.
But, if you leave a sponge soaking in water will it continue to grow bigger and bigger? Of course not.
It will only swell to the limit of its natural capacity.
So, rather than obsess on things that you can't change (like your perceived penis size) why not learn how to satisfy your partner by learning what makes her body tick? Find out what really turns her on sexually by asking questions and a little playful experimentation.
With a little patience and sensitivity you can become "the best she ever had.
" Remember, great lovers aren't measured in inches.
