The 5 Most Ridiculous Ways of 'Fixing Erectile Dysfunction'

There are many ways of fixing erectile dysfunction. The most common means for helping men gain and maintain erections, by far, is Viagra. But, there are countless other ways from herbal remedies to expensive surgery.

Many of these methods for dealing with erectile dysfunction are proven, healthy methods. Some of these methods have are traditional healing methods that have been used for centuries. Some of these methods are just plain silly.

1. Purchasing the Idiot's Guide to Fixing Erectile Dysfunction

If you are dealing with a flaccid penis, it is best to avoid the following titles: The Idiots Guide to Fixing Erectile Dysfunction, Erectile Dysfunction for Dummies, Chicken Soup for the Erectile Dysfunction and Dr. Phil's Little Book on the Limp Penis. There may be some nice facts in these best sellers, but there is no information here that you cannot easily access for free online or from your physician. It's best to keep you and your flaccid penis away from the best-selling-paperback-self-help rack at your local book store.

2. Penis Push-Ups

There are all kinds of supposed 'penis enlargement methods' out there that claim to increase penis size and help you gain control of your penis. While penis exercises may help you control your orgasms, they will not help your erectile dysfunction problem. Before contemplating penis push ups, penis pumps, penis stretches and the like, consider consulting a physician about the problem. Without a doubt, your doctor will not recommend you start bench pressing with your penis.

3. Talking to Your Penis

It is good to have a relationship with your penis. All men should pay attention to their penis and understand what's happening down there in the drawers. However, scheduling a consultation session with your penis is in no way a means of fixing erectile dysfunction. No one-on-one coaching session will get your boy to stand up. It is more likely that you'll just look and feel foolish after the one-sided chat.

4. Watching Copious Amounts of Pornography

There is absolutely nothing wrong with consuming healthy doses of porn. But, if you've got erectile dysfunction, this could just lead to frustration. For those with erectile dysfunction, every sexy film that doesn't lead to an erection is like a slap in the face. Unless you are taking an erection stimulant like Viagra or Cialis before watching porn, even the hottest film won't help you get it up.

5. Finding a Younger, Sexier Mate

An old song goes: "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life/ never make a pretty woman your wife." To the best of my knowledge, a response song has yet to be written containing the lines: "If you're having some problems getting your self up/ find a sexier girl to give your balls a cup."

There is a good reason that this response song never came to be – It's ridiculous! While there is definitely a link between the ability to gain and maintain an erection and sexual attraction (its common sense!), ruining relationships for the purposes of combating erectile dysfunction is not a recommended technique.

Rather than throwing caution (and sanity) to the wind, and leaving your wife for an erection, why not use a proven method for fixing erectile dysfunction like Viagra or Cialis.
