Posted by PRS on October 11th, 2010

Erection SilhouetteIf you've ever paid attention to those commercials for erectile dysfunction drugs then you may have heard a warning that said something like "in the event of an erection lasting more than four hours, please seek immediate medical attention." While such a predicament may sound a bit amusing and strange at first (imagine having a boner that won't go down for hours!), the truth is that this type of condition can be quite serious. Here we'll take a look at what the medical condition known as "priapism" really is and understand why having an erection for such an extended period of time can in fact be very dangerous.

Steroids Effects On The Penis

Posted by PRS on January 11th, 2007

muscular manIn my younger days I was somewhat of a bodybuilding fanatic. It pretty much all started when I was 13 and saw the Conan Movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger. I remember thinking to myself that I just HAD to look like him someday! Well after years of training hard and going to the gym everyday, I started to become disappointed that I didn't develop a huge muscular physique. There were other guys in the gym that were giants so how come I wasn't? When I would ask these guys how they became so big, many times they would tell me that to truly get big I would have to use an "enhancer" – i.e. steroids. Well I never could bring myself to stick a needle in my body, so needless to say I never achieved the muscle-bound shape that I had hoped for. One thing I did notice was that in the shower some of these huge guys also had tiny little penises. I always wondered… does using steroids shrink a man's penis?
