serious question about erectile dysfunction

I'm just curious if this happens to anyone else. I've been to Europe and Asia several times, and each time I was unable to get an erection for 2-3 days after arriving. Is this some sort of jet-lag problem. Has anyone else experienced it?

If you're not a troll, then I suggest you go to a search engine and look under urology; there are sites where you can ask a urologist this kind of question.

And here I thought this was going to be about taking viagra during an international flight - I remember reading about a woman whose collegen injected lips exploded on a flight. I know poppers and viagra are a lethal combo - I wonder if viagra and depressurization could cause similar outcomes (so to speak.....)

Dear "arnold" at 'soft.com' (maybe self image is a problem here? Self fulfilling prophecy?): <BR>On the off chance that you're serious, or that other men reading this have wondered the same, you should know that as men pass 40 years of age erectile function frequently begins to change, though certainly there is great variation from person to person...no hard or rigid rules apply (unfortunately, right?). Without going into graphic detail, amounht of engorgement and duration begin to become variable. Your situation will be dependent on physiologic and psychological conditions. <BR>After a long flight, you'll want to be sure you're well hydrated (don't underestimate the importance of this...tire won't inflate without air), rested, and psychologically not feeling frayed/distracted. Often difficult to make all conditions optimal immediately after switching continents. <BR>Viagra actually does help solve this problem (so I've been told...I have this friend, you see). <BR>Bottom line is, if you're over 40 and beginning to see some changes, there could be disease related issues such as hypertension/medications, diabetes, etc as an underlying cause, but in the vast majority of men, it's simply part of the aging process. Same thing begins to occur (for all the snickering women feeling invulnerable) with memory, near vision, skin tone (collagen tension), muscle mass, metabolism etc etc etc. <BR>As they say, "Aging ain't for sissies".
