Medicine Net has a new article called the Life Cycle of the Penis. In this article the authors document a rather sobering description of what happens to your little soldier on his way to military retirement. While there is considerable truth to what they are state, there is no reason for middle aged and beyond males to put their Little Man in the nursing home. In fact, I think that the article is irresponsible journalism, because it is so important for men to have sex. (See this link on Why it is Critical for Men to Have Sex.)

Of course, the authors felt that they are just stating facts and that there is never any harm in the truth. Well, to that I can only say that this is entire site is dedicated to all you guys who believe that life in middle aged and beyond can actually be fruitful, enjoyable and even the best years of your life. Maturity and experience do have their advantages you know.

So let me go point by point and show how to overcome the difficulties that the authors bring up:

1) Decline in testosterone and libido. "As his testosterone level falls, it takes more to arouse him. Once aroused, he takes longer to get an erection and to achieve orgasm and, following orgasm, to become aroused again". Yes, most males experience about a 1.2-1.3% per year decline in total testosterone. However, it is important to realize that most guys are starting from around 700 and have a long way to go before they start getting into the 400's and 300's where they will experience difficulty. Peak Testosterone is packed with Ways to Optimize Your Testosterone. And, if all else fails, Hormone Replacement Therapy has done very well in the studies and can be considered. In other words, guys, you CAN enjoy a lifetime of sexual enjoyment and a healthy libido!

2) Impotence. "Erectile dysfunction (ED), or impotence, is clearly linked to advancing years; between the ages of 40 and 70, the percentage of potent men falls from 60% to roughly 30%, studies show". I don't the stats, but here's what the authors don't tell you: erectile dysfunction is almost always linked to heart disease and endothelial dyfunction. And the message of the last ten to twenty years from key researchers is that you can partially reverse heart disease. Don't give up! Furthermore, you can dramatically improve your endothelial function through the Erectile Strength Diet.

3) Flaccidity. "If a man's erect penis is 6 inches long when he is in his 30s, it might be 5 or 5-and-a-half inches when he reaches his 60s or 70s". I'm not going to quote everything in the article, but the authors go to great lengths to show how collagen, fatty deposit and plaque build up in the penis and arteries supplying the penis leading to loss of erectile strength. Okay, we all have to face the fact that in puberty we would get hard with a snap of the fingers. But, that said, there is no reason for a middle aged and beyond guy not to enjoy excellent erectile strength. Research has been pouring out for the last twenty years and I show you the Critical Ways to Improve Your Erectile Strength.

4) Prostate Problems (BPH). "Men also experience a gradual decline in urinary function. Studies show that a man's urine stream weakens over time, the consequence of weakened bladder muscles and, in many cases, prostate enlargement." Again, there is no reason for a middle aged to suffer with these issues with a healthy lifestyle "under his belt". Read my link on BPH (Prostate Enlargement) Dietary Cures for many ways to overcome this.

After all the gloom and doom, the authors make a curious statement: "f there's a silver lining to these presumably unwelcome changes, it's this: Experts say these changes need not ruin your erotic life. One recent study involving 2,213 men in Olmstead County, Minn., showed significant declines in erectile function, libido, and ejaculatory function -- but only moderate decreases in sexual satisfaction...his most important ingredient for a satisfying sex life is the ability to satisfy your partner, and that doesn't require peak sexual performance or a big penis. As long as a man's partner enjoys sexual intercourse, he feels like a god".

Okay, this is a good point. However, again, I feel this is a very irresponsible presentation of the facts. First of all, it is dangerous for a male to leave himself with low testosterone, poor endothelial function, high blood pressure, BPH and heart disease. Why limp along in a diseased state? There is no reason for most middle aged and beyond guys to get themselves back into the shape they were in for a typical, healthy 30 year old male. Yes, it will take some work if you've done a lot of damage to yourself, but it's well worth it. What is more important that restoring your youthful energy, vitality, erectile strength and cognition?
