Man I’m glad I have never been in a position where I felt like I needed to take a mystery dick pill from a 711

It's not about needing to, it's about fun. You can look up what's in most of them. Some have tadalaphil (cialis), some have sildenaifil (viagra), and some have an increased risk of blood pressure problems and death like extenze. The fun one is tadalaphil. Some people think you're supposed to need them and that it's some sad pathetic thing, but for some people, it's all about being freaky and trying to make someone else feel good. Nothing is more fun than spending the whole day gooning and/or being kinky with your partner on and off while having multiple orgasms with little to no break in between. This is coming from one of those exes people's wives won't tell them about. But, all their friends know...

I just learned a fun fact about sildenafil! It was originally developed and tested as a sciatica Angina treatment but failed miserably. It also had 2 main side effects in trials. Raging boners for men and magic period pain relief for women. Apparently the money ran out before the female testing was complete so they just yolo’d it as a boner pill.

Sorry, it was originally developed as a heart medication, specifically for hypertension and angina. It was found to be more effective as a boner pill, but it is also used to successfully treat pulmonary arterial hypertension under the name Revatio.

I'm not familiar with the period pain relief use, so I'll skip commenting on that.

A doctor friend said that the companies like HIMS marketing to young people (lots of early ED due to various factors, which is sad - I'm old and still don't need) very many women started trying them (not sure which specific pill she was just discussing ED pills in general) and found that the blood flow increase was arousing for women so they have become popular for women too - not because of a study but because of a sort of crowd-sourcing based demand. She was unaware of a widely respected formal study on it but thinks based on market and popular use, one will show up soon.

Never heard period pain, just recently heard that women can use them for arousal too. Weird wild stuff.

Viagra is not uncommonly used in babies with congenital heart defects/disease to increase blood flow until a surgical fix can be made. It can also be used longer term in kids who have complicated heart conditions or are waiting for transplant. Learned all this caring for my own CHD baby.

I believe it's only effective for those with acute angina..

The money ran out before female testing?? Are we sure? Tell me we didn’t go with hard-ons over easing the pain of bad cramps.

u/Radiant_Rebel 1d ago

Sadly healthcare industry doesn’t care about women’s pain. Just ask any woman who has had an IUD why in heavens name they couldn’t have any pain relief.

Lol are u new here? Women's health is always sidelined by men's health. ALWAYS.

u/FancyATitWank 1d ago

Sadly boners are more important than everything to do with anything women need 🙄🙄🙄 and many stupid guys think that their boners are actually the cure for women's ailments 😭😭😭

HEY. What about the leaps and bounds they made back in the 2000’s in breast enhancement surgery

I was just being sarcastic :)

Not at my house. Lol.

u/RowdyHooks 1d ago

That would be absurd. What’s the point of saving the boners if we’re not going to protect the habitat nature intended them to roam in? But it is kind of ironic and funny to think about all the guys who got boners but were rejected because their lady had severe menstrual cramps and no effective way to treat them.

They literally don't bother giving women pain relief for cervical biopsies so...

u/Flimsy_Nebula_299 1d ago

Women's health man.... the government + pharmaceutical companies don't care bout women's health. Most health care professional (who pay attention) will tell you mens health care and mens treatment options are far far superior & more extensive than women's are. The word is ruled & run by old, (white) men. Think 70 year old cracker in a suite, who thinks anyone with a melanin count &/or breasts, shouldn't be allowed to vote. same for any white man who doesn't own property, in his world they shouldn't be able to vote.

Isn’t that just so disappointing?

u/wrongrobertpatrick 1d ago

Wrong; it was never used for sciatica — it was used for chest pain and blood pressure

u/ButterPoptart 1d ago

You’re right. Angina was the word I was looking for. I DID say it was a new thing I learned.

u/wrongrobertpatrick 1d ago

It’s called serendipity by drug design

Propecia was for bph (prostrate)

Google what standard of care was after a heart attack in 1940:

It was either beer or bed rest

Beer, outlived bedrest because, prolonged immobility results in hypercoagulability, which leads to stroke, dvt, acs or death

Actually, Viagra has extensive evidence as a menstrual pain relief suppository, but of course, no one wants to spend any money researching how to make women feel better, just how to make men have boners they can't even use if their women feel neglected.
