The History Of Impotence And Treatments

Impotence is not a new medical problem, this is a problem dating back since the start of mankind, it has only started to become a publicized problem since 1930's when American Doctor John Brinkley began looking a cures for impotence. Not long after this an explosion of advertising began in America starting with the domestic air stations.

Did you know?

During the 12th century many in the medical profession and other societies of note believed impotence to be the work of harmful magic and witchcraft.

In the 18th century a woman may file for annulment (divorce) if it is proved her husband is impotent.

Present day

In the 1970's surgeons began providing penile implants for patients with severe impotence, these were inflatable and, although cutting edge technology, were more crude than those available today.

Since the early 1980's modern medicine has moved mountains in the treatment world. In 1983 British Doctor and physiologist Giles Brindley made a stunning discovery, which he demonstrated in a shocking way. Dr Giles Brindley actually took his trousers and pants down in front of an American audience before injecting his penis with a new phentolamine based drug causing him to gain an erection.

Dr Giles Brindley pave the way for modern medicine to progress into the development of new improved medicines that could be widely available to those who need it.

During the 1990's medicine treatments were improved further with the creation of Viagra. Viagra was researched and created by a pharmaceutical company in Kent, England in the early years of the 1990's. The drug was an orally taken tablet created for use in high blood pressure and angina pectoris but after the first trials were carried it was clear that this drug had another use. The trials showed that it did little, if nothing for blood pressure and angina issues but did induce erections to those who were using it. The pharmaceutical company involved patented Viagra in 1996 and decided to use it as a medicine for impotence

Since the beginning of the new millennium (2000) many other oral medicines have followed suit.

Tadalafil, known as the weekend pill due to its 36-hour effects, came on to the market in late 2003. While many use this pill, there is still talk about possible side effects in certain user groups like diabetics where it is believed they may be a small chance of visual impairment.

Vardenafil came onto the market in 2005 and works much in the same way as Viagra and Tadalafil but with effects lasting for much shorter spans. The problem with Vardenafil is the side affects that can cause penile damage, which can result in further issues with impotence for the user.

As years go by and more knowledge is found about impotence, the medical profession is finding new and intuitive ways to treat the issues sufferers have and give them a normal sex life. In the future impotence may become something read about in history books but for now we will have to sit and wait for the next medical advancement.
