It's really a hard choice but why limp along if you don't have to ?

No need or interest so far. Staying healthy, fit, and active is still working for me. As well as "the best defense is a good offense" .
Every year during my physical my doctor asks if I want a prescription for these enhancement pills... every year I say no.

What is the MG strength you're taking? Cialis hasn't worked as well for me but I too would like more spontaniety.

A friend of mine was telling me about that a few months back. He was talking about low daily dosage of Sildenafil, that I believe he took with something else.
It was through a hypertension Dr and he claimed good results, but I did not ask about frequency. In the USA you need a prescription, whereas here you don't.
A few years back "expat sex parties" were all the rage here in Lima and guy's would come from around the world to attend. The sponsor for the parties was an expat who owned a company that made "lovelube" and "lovelube condoms". He would also import a generic viagra from Vietnam and sell it at these parties for maybe 1 dollar a pill. The host of the parties was an Aussie who owned several casino's around the country.
Now, it is no longer available as the sponsor is in jail for "human trafficking" and possibly murder and the host has moved to another part of the country.

Be sure to check for physical causes first because that is how we found out DH had prostrate cancer at 49.

I believe you can take up to 100 mg, but you'd want to confirm that. 60 mg seems to be my magic number. If I take 100 mg it gives me a headache.
Cialis 5mg daily is actually what I prefer. You can get that prescribed as treatment for benign prostatic hypertrophy, and it really works well for me (for treatment of BPH). However, it's not generic for another year or two, so it's pretty pricey still. Once it goes generic, I plan on switching back from sildenafil (Revatio/Viagra) to Cialis generic.

I don't "need" ED pills, but it is nice to halve your down time and double your count.
Side effects are worse for Tadalafil (Cialis) because it lingers for 3 days. Delayed back ache, stuffy nose, flushing, visual trail disturbances. Sildenafil (Viagra) is better since it is shorter lasting and has less side effects since it leaves sooner.
The US pricing is outrageous, so going to sketchy firms in India has netted some hit or miss samples. These usually have weird names that sound like Indian variants of the real names.
Also some US "peptide" firms sell liquids, the advantage is you avoid US Customs.
Recently the patent has expired in Europe for Viagra and the UK has started selling it OTC. The price should start dropping and hopefully some European sellers come online with legit generics from reputable companies.

Amen to this. A dear friend didn't realize that his decreased sexual stamina was a result of other conditions- he subsequently had a stroke at age 64 and it turns out that not only was his BP too high (he kind of knew that) but he was also diabetic and had high cholesterol. Now he's learning to walk again.
I'd hope that any competent doctor would do thorough tests before prescribing ED remedies.

So funny this question popped up (pun intended).
I go to a monthly ladies lunch for our over 55 neighborhood, and the subject arose (another pun intended) at yesterday's luncheon. The wives HATE it. YMMV

DW hates the "Will you be ready in 40 minutes" effect of using Viagra. She prefers spontaneous. But Cialis does not cut it. I tell her that 40 minutes of foreplay is a bonus!
I am waiting for the sublingual spray that works in 5 minutes. Because sometimes 40 minutes is too short. I have tried grinding up Viagra and putting it under the tongue without success.
First world problems! My enlarged prostate has had an impact.

Have tried Levitra , Viagra and Cialis . All good but my urologist uses a compounding guy here in Houston for straight tadalfil . I highly recommend these guys appearently they mix this up to FDA standards and are approved anyhow 20MG 10.00 each
And yes the POT does enhance the experience ! If anyone is interested I can give the pharmacy's name privately.

I hope this isn't TMI, but for ladies over a certain age, the tissues dry out "down there" and sex can be downright painful. I can see why some of them are not happy. There's a remedy but it ain't cheap- Premarin cream, available by prescription, and it usually runs about $350 for a supply that lasts 2-3 months. (There are pills, too, but since extra hormones can cause increased cancer risks, I liked the idea of something applied directly rather than pills.) If you know them well enough, you may want to volunteer this.

Never taken Cialis. Stuffy nose and dry eyes are a side effect.
If you don't have insurance that covers this, pill are in excess of $60 apiece for Viagra. The generic that was approved in the Fall for the U.S. is cheaper but not that much. So, the last two trips to Mexico I stocked up with Sildenafil 100 mg and break them in half for use. DO NOT DECLARE THEM ON CUSTOMS (I HAD A BIT OF AN ISSUE WITH THE QUANTITY I BROUGHT BACK). I think I'm good for a couple years if I remain "an active senior". Cost in Mexico was around $2.00-$2.50 per pill.
Yes, it might take a bit of planning (45 min to an hour lead time) with the DW but that doesn't matter when you both are in agreement on the end game.
BTW, very few times is this a "mental" issue and weed is an enhancer not a solution.
I'm a user and I'm dang proud of it. All in favor say "aye".

As pointed out already, times have changed. Now the generic version (same thing) is 66 cents for 20mg so for your 50mg dose it would cost you $1.66 and no trip fees or smuggling.

I never found one that worked. The Premarin addresses the actual issue: a shortage of estrogen. It actually takes a couple of months of use before the effects are noticeable.
