For men who have already had COVID-19 and are experiencing erectile dysfunction, Dr. Winter suggested using medicine like Cialis or Viagra, or even using extension devices that can add back length.



"These are easy things you can do at home, to either prevent shortening or actually get back length that you've lost," she told the podcast hosts.



A group of doctors, the Urologists United for Vaccination Education,
put out a PSA in October encouraging men to get vaccinated, saying that men who have had COVID-19 are six times more likely to experience erectile dysfunction.



"Studies have shown that COVID can affect the blood vessels of the penis in a similar way that it affects the blood vessels of the lungs, preventing them from providing enough blood to the penis to cause an erection, and leading to permanent impotence," the group writes.

This might make a few guys think twice about getting the vaccine

As usual, most people will probably choose to rely on a drug without stopping to consider the side effects, cost, or possibility that the body can heal itself with a healthy lifestyle.

The average person being overweight, it's likely they either already had ED or were on their way to getting it and the virus pushed them over the edge.

I just found the above link which more or less verifies what I said above.

"....three things may trigger ED in COVID-19 survivors:"

As far as endothelial dysfunction, you would know if that happened because your blood pressure would go higher.

I had the virus early in 2020 and my blood pressure stayed the same (i.e. lower than average without medication).

Eh...if it gets more men to get vaxxed, whatever. If it ends up with more men spending money on bogus "extenders" then not so good. Otherwise, that's one advantage of not being a guy - I'm not always worried about my ding dong.

I didn't think I would ever say this and I really tried to keep from saying this, but here goes:

I'm 80 years old and this should not be happening, but since I had the virus, my libido has been steadily increasing to the point where sex is almost a daily event.

Don't misunderstand, I'm not complaining or bragging I'm just reporting my experience.

So you are saying there is a correlation between getting covid and being horny? C'mon, not buying it for a second.
I also think these reported sexual related maladies are just a way to make people think twice about getting the vaccine. What scares a man more than the possibility that his penis will shrink.

Lets put this "report" where it belongs - the trash.
