THE VIRILITY SOLUTION: THE BEGINNING OF A NEW LIFE

At the suggestion of a friend who was already participating in the Vasomax study, Ron came to see me. After carefully screening him, I concurred with the urologist. For the most part, his health was excellent. He didn’t smoke, and exhibited no signs of hypertension, diabetes, prostate cancer, or Parkinson’s disease, the major ailments typically associated with ED.

I told Ron that his primary symptoms, which included slower arousal time, the need for increased stimulation to achieve an erection, and the inability to maintain an erection, were early signs of ED. He was accepted into the study and before he left that afternoon, I gave him a one-month supply of Vasomax pills, along with diaries that both he and his wife were to fill in as soon as a sexual encounter was over. I told him that a stuffy nose was a possible side effect, and that he might I eel lightheaded or a quickening pulse. He should carefully record any unusual changes he might experience.

Before he left, Ron asked me one more question: “If the pills work lor me, will I have to take them forever?”

I told him what I tell all my patients taking the new medications. Reactions vary from patient to patient, depending on the nature of their particular erectile problems. But if it turned out that Ron did need them indelmitely, I didn’t foresee a problem. “I ook at it this way,” I said. “The help you need is available to you. Just take that little white pill—and live the most satisfying life you can.”

Like so many men whom I’ve treated, Ron now regards his sex life as pre- and post-Vasomax. In the old era, he and his wife would try to have sex once or twice a week, with a lot of uncertainty on Ron’s part. Post-Vasomax, they quickly rediscovered the joys of spontaneous sex. Ron’s fear of inadequacy vanished. And gone forever was the very unpleasant option of having to inject himself.

Ron summed up his experience in a way I’ll always remember. “When I left your office after taking Vasomax for the first time, Amy and I went to dinner. I started to feel differently. I became acutely aware of how lovely she looked, and, all of a sudden, my emotional response to her was matched by a really powerful physical urge. I was overcome with desire for her. In fact, we skipped dessert in the restaurant—and had it at home, if you know what I mean.”
