Why do men use sex boosters?

SEX in marriage is an important issue; believe it or not, it can make or mar a marriage. It is the root of some silent wars in some homes. A woman who is not satisfied sexually could become aggressive, says, a journalist. This is because all her pent up emotions will turn into aggression and of course it becomes a misplaced one.

Consequently, every man would like to increase his sexual performance. Every man would want his lover to be proud and desire to sleep with him again or all the time. No woman will desire a man who cannot perform well in bed, and of course, wonders what his sexual partner thinks of his sexual performance, and lack of sexual potency can destroy what could and should be a successful love life. This is one of the reasons some men worry about their libido.

Libido, is derived from the Latin words. Li:bi:do which means desire, lust or sexual desire.

A lot of things could affect the ability of a man to perform well sexually. These include age, diet and erectal dysfunction, his partner, among other things.

As men and women get older, they have ingested so many toxins and unhealthy foods into their systems that the ability to generate testosterone and deliver the hormone is severely impaired.

When you are younger, you do not need an aphrodisiac because your hormonal system would be operating properly. But as you age, your lifestyle catches up with you and your libido could be negatively altered.

Men’s Roundtable went round the town to take some samples. “Would you use a sex booster, and why do men use it?” They have this to say:

A man would use drug to enhance his libido if he has a new catch he wants to impress. An average man wants to leave a long lasting impression on the woman he took to bed. That is why we use sex enhancer, every man wants to be seen as up to the task, especially in this area. Charles A.

I don’t think it is proper to use any drug to enhance your sexual performance. I think men who engage in multiple sexual partners do this. If you cannot perform well in bed, I think you should look at what is disturbing your performance and not go ahead to buy a drug to try and make you perform better. It is ungodly and very wrong; I won’t do it and will not encourage anybody to do it too. Ayoola O.

I have heard that a lot of guys use drugs to improve their sexual performance and there are lots of drugs out there for sale, some or should I say most of them are fake drugs. A lot of guys will injure themselves with these drugs.

This reminds me of one guy in my university days, Eddy, by name, he told us guys in the class that he had dated a girl for about six months and being a Catholic, he wanted to abstain from sex, but the girl kept making fun of him that he was a weakling. Because of this, he gave her a date for that weekend and to prove a point he used brantashie, a local sex enhancer purchased from Sabo area of Ibadan.

Either by omission or commission, the girl did not show up that day, Eddy got himself into trouble and almost died. Eventually, his friends organised and took him to meet a commercial sex worker, imagine that.

Since that day, I have vowed that nothing will make me use any drug, be it locally made or from renowned drug manufacturers, it’s not worth the headache. Adeyemi D. K.

Men who are not complete use sex boosters. I have never used any and I don’t think I will have any cause to use it. Old age also makes men use it, as you grow older, your ability to maintain an erection for a long time becomes reduced and most of the time, old men who date younger girls need to impress them, so there is the need to boost their libido.

However all those who take these drugs should be very careful, because there is nothing that does not have side effects. If there is need for a man to use it, it is better for him to seek a doctor’s advice and take one that best suits his system, so that you will not injure your health in the name of enjoying sex. James C. H.

Taking drugs to enhance sexual performance is in two ways: if you have a medical problem or you are on some medications that is affecting you, the doctor may recommend that you take drugs, some men suffer from erectal-dysfunction, they need medication to correct this. Before now, his medical condition is synonymous with old age but now as menopause occurs in younger women, this condition too happens to younger men, so men in this condition need drugs.

Some guys take it just for the fun of it, to belong or to impress their sexual partners, you won’t be surprised that even young guys too do, this is where the danger lies.

This may not be unconnected with the different types of adverts and awareness given to such drugs today.

For those who sincerely need drug to boost their libido, and who will take it with prescription or as prescribed, I think it is okay, the danger lies with those who use it indiscriminately, I will use it if need be. Okonkwo, C. I.

Men have responded, some use, some will use and some will not even think of sex booster. There may be the need for you to use it, but you have to be careful, use with prescription and be sure of the make. Avoid habit and food that may cause harm to the body and ensure your health is not at risk.
