TUESDAY, Aug. 19 (HealthDay News) -- A daily dose of the erectile dysfunction drug tadalafil (Cialis) helped relieve lower urinary tract symptoms in men with signs of enlarged prostates, according to a new study.

More than 50 percent of men age 50 and older have lower urinary tract symptoms, including increased urination frequency and urgency, straining, intermittence, incomplete emptying or a weak urinary stream. Current drugs used to treat the condition can produce side effects such as dizziness, low blood pressure and sexual dysfunction.

The Ignored : Sexual Dysfuncion in Women

A quick check of you In Box or Spam box will surely educate you on how male sexual dysfunction is a concern of almost every pharmaceutical company, medical doctor and man in the world. If they are not taking ED pills, they are considering them, or joking about them - but at least they are talking about them and sexual dysfunction in general. Male sexual dysfunction, that is.

Talk of sex can often seem gratuitous. It's all about breast implants and how to please a man and how to stay sexy (read: thin) so he won't run off with the UPS lady. Or it’s just plain old dirty talk.

Do you know anyone who uses Viagra (or similar medication)?

All kidding and spam aside...does anyone's sexual partner use viagra or similar medication? Is this drug just for ED or can it also be used to increase male libido?

I'm curious about the actual use of this drug, since we are bombarded with TV ads and email spam. I've also heard there are some side effects that can be unhealthy or dangerous to the man's health.

Thanks (in advance) for sharing...I know this is a sensitive topic and personal question!
