Women are far more open to gynecologists when it comes to matters of sexuality (disorders, etc.). When it comes to males, there is a culture of silence surrounding it. We may be blowhards when it comes to drinking, driving, playing basketball, or conquering chicks. But when it comes to difficulties encountered when engaged in the sexual act, we clam up. We go limp-lipped. We deal with problems in a flaccid manner. We keep things dark in the groin department. The problem is, when silence reigns, ignorance usually co-holds the scepter.
With male sexual wellness in mind, a biochemist from Bayer HealthCare embarked on years of research and clinical studies, and this seemingly quixotic undertaking led Dr. Erwin Bischoff to develop a new drug designed to help men experience "heightened orgasmic function and overall sexual satisfaction."
Bischoff’s contention is this: Sexual wellness for men translates to achieving a satisfying sex life (we concur). However, there are issues that even young, active men have to contend with, foremost of which is the ability to have an erection and sustain it (we doubly concur). Sexual wellness for most of us leads to an enhanced quality of life (we triply concur).
With Bayer’s new wonder-drug called Levitra (Vardenafil), having a limp bizkit will be a thing of the past – at least based on the studies made by Bayer.
What does Levitra do? Bischoff recently visited our shores in order to share the benefits of Levitra. Bischoff said that in a study presented in Turkey, last year, Vardenafil worked significantly (62 percent) in men previously unresponsive to another drug. It is also not affected by moderate fatty food and alcohol intake, making it a highly preferred medicine for after-dinner dates.
Vardenafil is a highly selective and a potent PDE-5 inhibitor. (PDE-5 is an enzyme that affects the blood-flow to the penis.) In terms of onsets and durations, Vardenafil has been proven to act as quickly as 10 minutes in a significant number of men. Imagine, no need for men to wait, no need for women to whip out a stopwatch or a good romance novel, and no time for spiders to erect elaborate web architectures around the couple before Vardenafil takes effect.
"The main thing about Levitra," Bischoff stressed, "is its maximal efficacy with minimal drug exposure or less dosage. It heightens orgasmic experience and significantly improves overall sexual satisfaction. Plus, it is safe and well-tolerated (by the body)."
The launch of Bayer HealthCare’s Levitra coincided with the unveiling of SWIM (Sexual Wellness in Men) Foundation, composed of multi-disciplinary experts in psychology, urology and cardiology; media practitioners; and consultants in different fields. The foundation advocates a holistic approach to men’s sexual wellness.
SWIM Foundation was established to narrow the knowledge gap between men and women with regard to sexual health. It was designed to work within the confines of the culture of silence, which prevents men from talking about sexual wellness issues in a beneficial and meaningful manner.
The SWIM Foundation’s goal is to dispel misconceptions surrounding men’s sexual wellness, and to communicate new information (benefits and such) in a way that preserves the fundamental values of respect, dignity and privacy, which are all very important to men.
With a new wonder-drug and an organization dedicated to men’s sexual health, things are – pardon the pun – looking up for the Filipino male.
