There are very few studies on the safety of natural remedies for ED. Some of the remedies have side effects varying from mild to severe. The following list looks at some common natural remedies that people use for ED: L-arginine L-arginine is an amino acid, which is a building block of protein. It is a vasodilator, meaning that it can help open up the blood vessels. In theory, this could increase blood flow to the penis and help produce an erection. A study from 2017 reported that many people with ED had low L-arginine levels, which suggests that the two may be linked. However, scientific studies have not proven that taking L-arginine supplements can treat ED. More research is necessary before researchers know the safety and effectiveness of this remedy. People should avoid taking L-arginine alongside prescription ED drugs, such as Viagra, as this combination can cause the blood pressure to drop too low. It can also lead to headaches or flushing. Side effects of L-arginine may include nausea, stomach cramps, low blood pressure, and increased blood sugar levels.
However, there are a lot of cures available in the market in the form of male enhancement pills and other natural cures. Many of these are known to have worked for many people while many people will also point out that they have not had any significant benefit from these pills. Let us discuss these pills one by one below: Viagra: This is the most popular prescription for sexual impotence. Till date, over 16 million people have used this pill and that speaks volumes about the popularity of the pill. Introduced in 1998, Viagra consists of PDE-5 inhibitors that can release the blood vessels that in turn can fill the penis chambers. This will cause an erection, which can last for up to four hours. The pill can be taken about 30 minutes before the sexual activity. Of all men who have used Viagra, about 65% to 70% claim that they have been benefited immensely. Cialis: This is also a hugely popular male enhancement pill. This is excellent for unplanned sexual activity and the effects can last up to 36 hours.
