Why Did We Cure ED Before We Cured Cancer or the Common Cold? Are We Just Shallow? 

We aren't shallow. We wanted to go deeper.

Yup, Sildenafil aka Viagra is actually also used for Pulmonary Hypertension and it being effective against ED was a side effect when they were looking for properties to deal with hypertension in general, and Angina Pectoris! Tadalafil aka Cialis was then developed from the knowledge gained and is being used to treat both Pulmonary Hypertension and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia - and of course, ED! As someone who has medicine induced BPH and occasionally been dealing with medicine induced Prostatitis, Tadalafil has been a life saver! Sure, I still have to piss 4-5 times during the night, but since I started taking Tadalafil, my Prostatitis has been much more rare and it’s a lot easier for me to take a piss! And I honestly can’t complain about the side effect I've occasionally struggled with anti-depressant induced ED some years back where I was given Sildenafil and it was like, sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn’t - but Tadalafil is definitely the better of the two, and it’s not even ED I get it for - and although it isn’t supposed to be combined, doing so is FUNFUCKINGTASTIC! Oh, and by the way, as 8 understand it, they’re looking into the possibility that Tadalafil might reduce the risk of Prostata Cancer, and aside for Sildenafil possibly reducing women menstrual pain, I'm pretty sure I read about them wanting to research the possibility of Sildenafil related to women sexual health. We know that ED and skin problems affect mental health a lot, so there’s probably also some health benefits unaccounted for there, just like various products used to treat skin problems isn’t taken into consideration when looking at mental health issues….

"the way it fell behind in the face of new evidence" this reminded me of Ayurvedic medicine from India. today Ayurveda is pretty much just pseudoscience ... because it didn't keep up with the times. some ayurvedic texts written over a thousand years ago contained surgical techniques, that were probably state of the art. now, not so much 😕

Um, could it possibly be that curing ED was pretty easy?

*Are We Just Shallow?* Come on. Are we supposed to be that dumb?
