One of the worst aspects of experiencing problems in the bedroom is that one is vulnerable to some of the most ruthless quacks trading quick fix preparations to perk up your sex life. With the introduction of the internet, it has become possible for baby boomers to buy any number of lotions and potions guaranteed to boost sexual libido and eliminate all difficulties instantly, regardless of what caused the problem or the general health of the patient.
Psychological articles clearly tell us that unfortunately, there is a low possibility of any of these miracle cures being effective, whether they are homeopathic, herbal or chemical.
A bottle marked ‘Dr Love’s Miracle Cure for Impotence’ is all too obviously a commercial hype intended to profit from someone’s sexual shortcomings and fools nobody – other preparations, however, are more subtly marketed, sometimes under marketing labels that infer their performance is somehow endorsed by the medical profession. In fact, few sexual enhancement supplements have been properly tested and some are even dangerous.
Legitimate medical interventions should be sought under the advice of a medical practitioner and might include injections of devices to encourage the restoration of normal function but some baby boomers having difficulties choose instead to experiment with dietary supplements.
The market for such substances is huge and millions of andropausal baby boomers are among the most eager customers to try out the array of products on offer. Some preparations are a compound of harmless herbs, including flower pollen and goat weed, spices and sweetening agents and do little harm other than produce a big fat zero in the performance department. Others can do real harm, especially to those who are allergic to the ingredients used.
The answer to the question on whether such preparations are safe is that some are and some are not. Do they work? Nope – not as a rule – and in the case of those who have had some success after taking sexual enhancement supplements, psychological articles explain that this is invariably attributed to the placebo effect.
The only effective solution to the kind of difficulties experienced during andropause and through other crises in the male baby boomers’ sexual experience is to seek proper medical help from an appropriately registered medical practitioner with decent credentials.
Baby boomers having this kind of problem will be vulnerable to all kinds of quackery in their desperation to rid themselves of what they see as a scourge on their lives. Better to take the professional path and be sure of a straight forward and safe solution…
