Many people agree that black ginger is a pro-erectile supplement but most of these experts will likely tell you that black ginger doesn’t work as well as the PDE-5 inhibitor Viagra. Still, it’s interesting to note how black ginger works to help mild forms of erectile dysfunction.
Helping the symptoms of mild erectile dysfunction
According to an article on WorldHealth.net, black ginger “acts on the dopaminergic system, boosting levels of the neurotransmitter that plays an important role in normal sexual function, in addition to its PDE-5 inhibiting effects.”
Black ginger extract is also said to improve mood and combat depression through upregulation of dopamine receptors. There’s also a theory that black ginger helps you burn calories to lose weight, which is helpful because obesity can contribute to erectile dysfunction.
According to the article, black ginger has no effect on blood pressure or hormonal balance, which makes it safe to use with hormone replacement therapy. Regardless, you should talk to your medical provider before taking black ginger (the average dose is 1200 mg) because it’s not safe for everyone. Men with preexisting arrhythmias, for example, can exacerbate their condition if they take black ginger.
Helping mild to severe erectile dysfunction
Men suffering from mild to severe erectile dysfunction may want to try Viagra, as it’s been found to work for 80% of men.
Viagra does have some side effects, but most men report that they are mild enough to continue taking the erectile dysfunction drug. The more common side effects include flushing, stuffy or runny nose, diarrhea, upset stomach, headache, back or muscle pain and changes in vision.
To get a prescription for Viagra, you’ll need to see your doctor. Although talking to your medical provider about erectile dysfunction may be uncomfortable or embarrassing, it offers several benefits.
First, you’ll be able to discuss your past and current health conditions, one or more of which may be the underlying cause of your erectile dysfunction.
You’ll also go through your current prescriptions, medications, vitamins and supplements to ensure that nothing is a contraindication to the Viagra.
And finally, you’ll learn more about how to take Viagra and what to expect.
