Baldness Tablet May Be Linked to Tumescence
Dysfunction
Men like to look their best, and for some men that means attempting to cover
up any signs of baldness on their head. Men who find baldness unwelcome
should know that a recent study indicates a popular ingredient in some
baldness tablets may have a link with tumescence dysfunction. When a
tablet has the potential to affect male organ health, guys need to take a look
at the available information to make an informed decision.
Finasteride
The ingredient in question is called finasteride, and it is marketed for
baldness treatments under a number of brand names. In addition to being
used to treat baldness, it is commonly prescribed for men with an enlarged
prostate. (Interestingly, while it is marketed to treat baldness in men, it is
also used to treat hirsutism – that is excessive hair growth – in women.)
Whether finasteride is effective in treating baldness is a question that
inspires debate, but it is officially approved by the U.S. Food and Tablet
Administration for that purpose.
Tumescence dysfunction
Scientists have long thought that finasteride may increase the risk of
tumescence dysfunction in some men, at least since a study published in
2010. This belief is based on the fact that one of finasteride’s functions is to
lower the amount of male hormone in men, which can have an impact on the
sensual drive.
Now a new study, published in the journal Peer, provides more evidence that
may back up that theory. This study, from Northwestern Medicine, looked at
the records of almost 12,000 men in a massive database. They focused on
men between the ages of 16 and 89 (inclusive) who had been prescribed
tablets for baldness or prostate issues at least once over a 21-year period.
They then looked at any diagnoses of sensual dysfunction.
They found that men prescribed the tablet for a longer period of time had a

greater risk of prolonged tumescence dysfunction – and that this was
especially true for younger men (those aged 16 to 42.) As they put it, “in
young men, prolonged exposure to finasteride posed a higher risk of
persistent tumescence dysfunction than any other risk factor.”
Indeed, in that earlier age subset (16 to 42 years), men who took the tablet
for 205 days or more were five times more likely to develop tumescence
dysfunction than if they took it for fewer than 205 days. And the median
duration of the tumescence dysfunction was almost four years, even after
they stopped taking the tablet.
What to do?
Not all men who took finasteride had this issue, but men who are concerned
about hair loss and using or considering using finasteride should consult
with their doctors to see if they need to modify or monitor treatment in any
way to reduce the risk of tumescence dysfunction developing.
Every man has to decide how he feels about personal baldness. Many men
embrace it, preferring to shave their heads and rock the look. Not everyone
is comfortable with that option. But finding the right balance between
baldness treatment and male organ health is important.
Baldness aside, tumescence dysfunction is easier to manage when there are
no other male organ health issues to consider. Using a first class male organ
health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is
clinically proven mild and safe for skin) can aid in maintaining general
male organ health. It’s wise to select a crème that includes L-arginine, an
amino acid helpful in the chain of events that enables manhood blood
vessels to dilate, making them more receptive to increased blood flow. The
crème should also contain acetyl L carnitine, a neuroprotective ingredient
that can help prevent the loss of sensation in the member due to frequent or
aggressive use (or misuse).
