Viagra i.e. sildenafil and Cialis i.e. tadalafil can be effective in as little as 1 hour, though for some patients, these medicines can work more rapidly. Sildenafil will work reliably for 6–8 hours, but tadalafil will work for up to 36 hours.

Penile erection is occurred by the engorgement of the penis with blood. In normal situations, sexual stimulation leads to the creation and release of nitric oxide in the penis. Nitric oxide then energizes the enzyme, Guanylate Cyclase, which causes the production of Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP). It’s the cGMP that’s primarily responsible for the erection by affecting the quantity of blood that the blood vessels deliver and remove from the penis. Cialis and Viagra inhibit an enzyme known as Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) which destroys the cGMP. Therefore, Cialis and Viagra stop the destruction of cGMP and allows cGMP to accumulate and persist longer. The more the cGMP persists, the longer prolonged the engorgement of the penis.

My name is John. I was a public servant for 25 years. In my late forties, I had set up a gardening business to marry my interest in golf with horticulture. Despite my best efforts, I never did get a job as a groundsman on a golf course but the business ran for several years regardless. Now I’m 71 and retired. Soon I’ll be celebrating 50 years of marriage.

When I was 57, I was diagnosed with erectile dysfunction (ED), which is an inability to get or keep an erection during sexual intercourse. I am really comfortable talking about this issue now, I’d never discussed it with any other guys. I guess no one wants to admit to it.

My sex life was a disaster for several years. I was having ‘improper’ erections that weren’t firm. I would ejaculate about a minute into intercourse. This was not good for my wife, and not good for me. I felt like I wasn’t performing, that I was failing her. She thought I no longer found her attractive. But it didn’t have anything to do with her at all.
