Are Rx drugs DRAGGING DOWN your Don Juan mojo?
You think you must be “getting older“… and this is just what happens when guys age.
Or maybe you’ve convinced yourself you’re too STRESSED OUT to enjoy yourself in the bedroom…
Or that you were never really much of a “Romeo” in the first place.
Friend, it’s true that the passage of time could work against your sexual mojo in certain ways…
Like how testosterone levels naturally dip over the years.
Some older guys can’t seem to find the energy to “rock around the clock”…
And some just don’t want to.
But if your head is in the game… and your OTHER body parts aren’t cooperating…
You don’t have to face the final curtain of your sex life.
Your sexual performance could just be experiencing an intermission…
And there could be a way to bring it back for a standing ovation (even if it’s while you’re lying down).
Because there’s a HIDDEN culprit behind some guys’ sex problems…
And ELIMINATING it could get your motor running once again!
Let’s face it – it could happen to the best of us.
A too much “celebratory spirit” let the air out of… well, you know.
But alcohol isn’t the only substance that could put an early end to the party.
You may be SHOCKED to learn that certain medications could also SABOTAGE your sex life!
There’s even a name for it – “drug-induced sexual dysfunction.”
The ones we KNOW about include…
- BP meds, including diuretics, thiazides, and beta blockers
- statins for lowering cholesterol, which could also lower T levels
- acid blockers for heartburn (a.k.a. acid reflux, or GERD)
- pain meds, including both NSAIDs and opioids
- hair loss meds, like finasteride
- antidepressants and other “mood meds,” including SSRIs
- cancer drugs, especially antiandrogens for prostate cancer
- allergy meds, especially antihistamines.
Chances are… if you’ve reached a certain age… you’re on at least ONE of these classes of drugs.
I can’t even FATHOM how many guys are on MULTIPLE medications that fit into the above categories…
And what the COMPOUND effects might be.
Now, you’ll notice that I referenced the drugs “we know about”…
Because it’s possible that there are even MORE of them that could cause bedroom issues…
Ones we DON’T yet know about.
I’m betting that some guys are so ASHAMED of what’s happened to them…
Or they’re just incredibly PRIVATE about what’s going on with their privates…
That they don’t report this EMBARASSING side effect.
Most mainstream experts will tell you that you SHOULDN’T stop taking any drug on your own… even if you suspect it’s caused your downstairs dance to dwindle.
But you SHOULD talk to your doc.
Because even if he doesn’t want you to QUIT taking certain types of drugs…
He could SWITCH you to a different one that offers the SAME benefits… but NONE of the sexual disappointment.
Even better, an integrative doc could help you WEAN off certain drugs that may not be necessary in the first place… especially if your health goals could be accomplished through other, natural interventions (like diet, exercise, or supplements).
For instance, feeling depressed could make it difficult for you to get “in the mood” – but if “happy pills” make it IMPOSSIBLE for you to take center stage when the spotlight is on you, that’s not exactly an IDEAL solution.
So in that case, another option might be looking at mood-boosting nutrition and uplifting herbs.
If you ARE experiencing any malfunction in your manly parts… DON’T keep it to yourself.
Your doc should make sure something more serious isn’t going on… before you make ANY changes.
To your healthy sex life,
