The quality of the sex oftentimes depends upon the size you carry! However, an average length ranges from 14-17 cm but men probably want more and if you are among those who want to have bigger, you are at right corner of the Internet!

The man with larger organ can penetrate her more effectively as compared to the man with shorter ‘joystick’! Don’t worry; there are many techniques for penis enlargement. Few of the well-known are described below –

Ballooning

This is the technique that is adopted by millions of men across the world. This method involves prolonging the ejaculation a man has. Here, you should be able to hold the ejaculation back 3-5 times during the sexual performances. When the penis is erect, start doing massage on its shaft, footing and the base. You should also include pubic area, groins and scrotum that will increase the blood flow. Holding back the ejaculation probably accelerates the metabolism of the testosterone. This will stimulate the entire organ’s muscles and surrounding structure that play role in providing bigger size while erection.

Hanging the Weight

Using the weighs and stretchers to enlarge the size of the organ has been practiced since years in many folk medicinal sciences. This technique is based on the principle of the tensile force and the body’s ability to adapt and change under its influence. The cells of the penis get strength as they get trained by such weight practice. It is exactly what you do to develop your biceps. You do dumbbells and here, you hang lighter weight. There will be increased tissue mass and result of that, the organ gets enlarged or longer.

Stretching Exercises

They are harmless and practiced worldwide. The exercise should be performed in a particular way. Here, you need to hold your organ’s head outwards just in front of you and hold it for about 10 seconds. Take it firmly in the hand and then pull towards right-side. Again hold it for about 5-7 seconds and then do the same towards the left-side. Pull the organ’s head downwards and hold it for about 5-7 seconds and leave it. The exercise ends with pulling the penis upwards and stretched. Repeat the entire procedure for about 3-4 times and continue it for couple weeks as doing it regularly will increase the length and girth both.

Jelq Exercises

Massage the penis and take it to half erected position. You then take right hand hold it from the base and make the sign of ‘OK’ using the thumb and index finger. Starting from the base, move upwards to the head and then form the similar ‘OK’ by your left hand at the base and do the same thing. Repeat this couple of times and for some weeks. This enlarges the penis size.

Increase Semen

The man is known by his masculinity and his manhood by his sexual power. A man, however stout, if cannot perform well on the bed, is compared with a fruit without any juice! Sexual stamina is necessary for any man to please woman and women too, prefer those men who have great ability to perform sexuality and capability to have multiple episodes in a single night. Modern science says that there is no particular ‘amount’ of semen and it flows on regular basis but in very little quantity. At the time of orgasm, it comes out with a greater quantity.

Folk medicinal sciences such as Ayurveda differ there. According to Ayurveda, a man has particular amount of the semen and it decreases as the man grows old. It is therefore, an old man may not produce the semen. An amount of semen is sufficient to pass adolescent, young and middle age. But, there are many reasons that can decrease the quantity of the semen and then once the semen quantity has started decreasing, a man feels weak and there could be many sexual problems including erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation and in severe cases, the sterility.

In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that one has to protect the semen and should eat some foods and herbs that can increase the semen. Herbs such as Indian gooseberry (Aamla), Asparagus (Shatavari), Guduchi, Kuchala (Mucuna), Gokshura (Tribulus) etc have been practiced to increase the libido and so the semen in the men. They can be taken as single herb therapy or you can go for some formula that contains the blend of those herbs. Many herbal pharmaceutical companies manufacture such herbal pills that can be taken as directed by physician.

Ayurveda suggest going for those all edible items that are somewhat sticky (such as okra, eggplant etc.) since they increase the semen quantity and quality. Some of the fruits like mango and banana also increase the semen according to Ayurveda. Ayurveda favors taking Shatavari (an Ayurvedic herb, available in granules nowadays) along with milk and very little sugar. Taking this daily at night will increase the sexual power and also the semen quantity.

Dark green leafy vegetables, their salads, fresh fruit juices etc are also known for their efficacy increasing the vitality and so the virility in a man. Some modern Ayurvedic scholars favor taking eggs and fish oils as two of the most effective foods for increasing the semen in a man. Latest researches and clinical trials reveal that some of the holy exercises such as Yoga and Pranayama are very beneficial treating various sexual disorders including low libido. Meditation is another holy exercise that involves the mental stability and hence can help restoring the hormonal levels and enzymes in the body.

Along with such diet and herbal supplements, one should take enough rest and should not wear any tight inner wear, especially tight underwear. Tight clothes restrict the blood circulation in reproductive organs and hence may decrease the libido and so the semen. One should also give up over masturbation that decreases the semen quantity in significant way as said in Ayurveda.

Impotence – Corrupted Virility

An introduction

Impotence can be defined as consistent inability to sustain an erection of the male sexual organ that is required for sexual intercourse. When we talk about ‘impotence’ in general, it may apply to any person who is not capable producing the progeny. But overall, impotence is usually applied to a male having no sufficient erection or one who cannot stand longer. Medical professionals label this as ‘erectile dysfunction’ to narrate this problem and to differentiate it from other health ailments that interfere with coitus like lack of sexual desire and other problems with ejaculation and orgasm.

Causes for impotence

There are various reasons that give raise to impotency in males. Impotence generally has a physical cause like some disease, injury or any drug’s side-effect. Any health problem that alters the blood flow in the male sexual organ can also cause impotency. The incidences do rise with the age; about 5% of men at the age of 40 and between 15%-25% of men at the age of 65 experience impotence. Nevertheless, it is not an inevitable part of the age of a man.

Various underlying causes such as cardiovascular leakage and chronic disease like diabetes can also cause impotency. Sometimes, prostatectomy surgery can also damage nerve that can cause chronic erectile dysfunction. Health experts do not deny mental stress, anxiety and depression as three of the causes that bring impotency in men. Male hormone deficiency can also result into impotency.

Some of the folk medicinal systems such as Ayurveda suggest that over-masturbation can also result in impotency. Some of the other anomalies such as absence of testes and structural defects of male genital organs can also cause impotency.

Signs and symptoms of impotence

Impotency could feature a total inability to achieve tighter and fuller erection of the penis. It can also feature inconsistent ability to do so and sometimes even tendency to sustain erections for very shorter period that ends into early ejaculation and dissatisfaction. These symptoms can make a ‘set’ that can be considered as a whole while determining the impotency. Statistics reveal that impotency affects between 10-15 million American men.

Treatment of impotence

There are many ways to treat impotency. However, congenital and structural anomalies may be difficult to treat or cannot be treated. If male hormone is lacking, it can be replaced and hence can be treated. Massaging the affected area also improves blood circulation and can help curing the problem. If the mental stress is the culprit, psychotherapy works wonderfully.

Some of the herbs such as Ginseng, Indian gooseberry, Asparagus, Withania, Mucuna etc have significant role in treating impotency in males. They can be taken with milk for maximum benefit. If there is a blockage in the blood flow, it can be corrected by surgery.

Ayurveda favors completely stoppage of masturbation at least till the problem is fully treated. Mineral pitch (Shilajit) plays significant role in treating erectile dysfunction. The drugs that rejuvenate the body (called as ‘rasayana dravyas’) are very useful gaining the vigor back and to achieve the sexual power. Some of the medicated oils (like Shatavari oil, Bala oil etc) can also provide strength to the male organ.
