Sexual Potency

There are a number of devices that can help men to achieve a better erection and to have successful sex.

Vacuum pumps.

A pump is a cylinder which you put over your penis. You then pump out the air. That should ‘suck’ your penis into an erection – which, however, tends to be a bit cold and blue-looking.

Rings

Specially-designed rings which fit round the base of the male organ are often used with vacuum pumps. However, they can be tried on their own. The idea is that the ring helps stop the blood from flowing out of the penis.

External splints

These are supposed to prop the penis up during sex. Not awfully successful, in my view.

Vibrators

Although vibrators aren’t often prescribed by doctors (and certainly not on the NHS), I have found that they can be quite useful in urging a lethargic penis into life. Some vibrating devices such as the Penisator actually clip round the male organ.
