Other alternative surgical methods are also being done, such as penile implants. These methods are often recommended for men with erectile dysfunction.

If the patient chooses to have a longer penis, the surgery involves cutting the suspensory ligaments that hold the penis close to the body.

Both procedures are effective for preventing pregnancy, but which operation is the easier of the two from which to recover? Should the husband have a vasectomy or should the wife have a tubal ligation?

It is important that both the husband and wife be well versed on the pros and cons of each procedure. Knowing what each procedure entails, the recovery time, the possible risks and side effects associated with both of these is vital to making an informed decision.

Benefits Of Having A Vasectomy

A vasectomy is a much simpler procedure to perform than is a tubal ligation.

Though there is some discomfort at first, recovery time is fairly quick and regular activities can be resumed in about one week.

There are many similarities and just as many differences between the menopause we know so well in connection with female menopause and the fairly recent revelation and acceptance for the most part of the medical community that males too undergo a menopause of their own.

Females can enter pre-menopause as early as age 35 while men generally start to suspect they are undergoing a menopause based on symptoms around age 40 or 45. The female menopause has an undeniably physical indication that they are indeed entering into the “change of life”. The change for males is much more subtle and can continue well into their 70’s even 80’s. Females are born with a certain number of eggs, which have a bearing on their reproductive abilities and how old they are when they hit menopause. Males on the other hand can produce sperm into their 80’s.

A drop in hormone level occurs in both male and female menopause Read the rest of this entry »

Most men are too selfish to realize that their coming first in bed does injustice to their partner who is often left unsatisfied with their sex performance. It takes two to make it in bed.

Once you know the problem, doing something about it is next. It helps a lot when you have a partner who understands and is willing to support you.

Understanding the Causes

Inexperience among teenagers is one cause. Scoring with the girls and losing virginity are considered coming-of-age initiation challenges that must be met. Needless to say, initial sexual encounters are often stressful. “Hurry up or we’ll get caught.” Such situations often create subconscious impetus about sex as a race against time. Coming quick becomes the norm. This is one psychological cause that may require a more sophisticated cure like hypnosis.

Likewise, the presence of performance anxieties can drive a man to consummate the sexual act as fast as he can. Work-related stress also has been known to put the sexual encounter as just another means to release his stress. And the quicker that happens the more efficient the means is.

Unless you have been living under a rock, the news that “women experience menopause”, is not something new. It may be news to you that there is research being conducted to determine if there is such a thing as “male menopause”. The studies that have been conducted say that the main hormone for males - testosterone decreases as male’s age starting at age 40 and that it returns to pre-puberty levels by the time males hit age 80.

Women on the other hand can start having pre-menopausal symptoms as early as age 35. The main hormone that triggers menopause for women is estrogen. This hormone for women decreases noticeably over a period of five years starting at around age 50. Women have an undeniable physical symptom of menopause - the cessation of their monthly period cycles. They are officially considered menopausal when they have not had a period for 12 months in a row, barring any other medical reason for lack of menstruation. The decrease in the hormone estrogen can be detected by a blood test (FSH).
