Alcohol lowers inhibitions. If you're looking for an adventure, you can easily feel inspired by it. That's the good news for starters. But: at the same time, alcohol reduces the quality of your erection – which means the fun of sex quickly disappears. Combined with drugs, the effect is even stronger and erectile dysfunction is often the result.
Especially at parties, these substances are often taken together or in different doses. The result is intoxication – euphoria, pleasure and long-lasting erections mix together and give an exhilarating feeling.
The causes of erectile dysfunction are varied and are mainly divided into psychological and physical causes.
Psychologically, stress in particular can have a negative impact on the ability to get an erection. Failure to achieve an erection quickly leads to fear of repetition of the behaviour and a fear of failure that is not easily overcome. This and other factors can put pressure on the partnership and increase the pressure on the mind.
On the other hand, there are various physical factors that can quickly turn a hard penis into a half-mesh – and make sex with your partner a real challenge. For example, it can be caused by circulatory problems, diabetes or side effects of certain medications. External influences such as alcohol and drugs are also real pleasure killers.
Erectile dysfunction usually starts at a level of 0.5 promille – at a level of 1 promille it becomes severe. This can happen with a single consumption, but becomes even more serious when alcohol becomes a regular partner in life. This is because it can lead to changes in the tissues of the penis that welcome erectile dysfunction. The nervous system is damaged, the muscle cells in the erectile tissue are affected and the hormones in the man go mad. If alcohol consumption is a one-off or rare occurrence, erectile function usually returns to normal quickly.
Viagra is known to help with erectile dysfunction. Viagra ensures optimized blood flow to the corpus cavernosum and an increased capacity for full performance during the sexual act. However, anyone combining Viagra with alcohol should be aware of the potential side effects that may accompany it. Drugs with the active ingredient sildenafil, such as Viagra, lower blood pressure. Drinking alcohol will further enhance the effect. This in turn can lead to circulatory problems or heart palpitations.
Other possible side effects include headaches, dizziness and increased heart rate.
Alcohol consumption inhibits the brain and increases sexual desire. However, alcohol also lowers testosterone levels, which means that alcohol consumption can weaken the effect of Viagra. The ability to get an erection decreases significantly after a few glasses of alcohol – Viagra does not necessarily help anymore.
By the way, it is not a solution to compensate for a high alcohol consumption with a higher dose of Viagra, as the probability increases in this case. Rather, it is important to find the fine line between conscious consumption with a relaxing effect and taking Viagra.
Sildenafil was originally developed to lower blood pressure. This is also true of Viagra. Taking large amounts of alcohol at the same time can cause a drop in blood pressure, which can lead to loss of consciousness and even be life-threatening.
Anyone who combines alcohol and Viagra must be aware of the effects on the body. The initially pleasant feeling of intoxication can, after a certain time, lead to circulatory weakness and render the heart dysfunctional. Especially with a certain regularity, a man's erectile capacity can suffer permanently, which can ultimately only be compensated for by drugs such as Viagra.
If you want to be on the safe side, you should avoid combining the various substances.
