After reading laudatory reviews (often well-earned) about Viagra, some people attribute extra properties to this medication, which, unfortunately, it doesn’t possess.

One of the most popular topics on forums about Viagra is Can Viagra make you last longer? We are sorry to inform you that the answer is negative. It is a myth. There is no longer lasting viagra. Moreover, the drug doesn’t increase your libido, prevent you from being tired, or make your penis bigger.

Viagra increases blood flow to the erectile tissue of your penis. It makes it easier to get and maintain an erection or even to improve it.

For those who want longer sexual intercourse, there are some positive answers to the question: Does Viagra help you last longer?

The study conducted in 2007 established a direct link between Viagra’s active ingredient Sildenafil and increased ejaculation time in the male who had premature ejaculation. However, it was a small study that hadn’t had further research. That is why it cannot be considered a general recommendation.

Another trial published in 2005 states that a slight increase in the time to ejaculation was reported in men who took Viagra; however, it did not reach statistical significance.

Does Viagra Stop You Coming?

The answer to another frequently asked question, “Does Viagra stop you coming early?” also may be considered negative.

As mentioned above, Viagra slightly influences the time of ejaculation.

However, Viagra can help men to last longer in certain situations.

We are talking about men who tend to lose erection during sex and have to stop because they are no longer hard. In this case, Viagra helps have sex longer for those who have erectile dysfunction. Viagra keeps working in your system for up to 4-5 hours after intake.

Do You Stay Hard After Coming With Viagra?

Does Viagra keep you hard after coming? No, it is not. And if you are still hard after ejaculation, there is a risk you have problems.

Many people on Viagra lose erections after coming. Although some men may still have it for a short period of time, it is considered normal. Then a so-called refractory period occurs until the time a man can have sex again.

If you still have an erection after ejaculation, it can mean that you have a side effect called priapism. You need emergency care if you have an erection lasting more than four hours.

How long does Viagra keep you erect?

No one can tell for sure. It is very individual and depends on many factors.

Does Viagra Make You Come More?

No, Except for one aspect.

A study published in 2003 shows that Viagra can reduce the postorgasmic refractory time for several minutes. For example, the average reduction in the pause between the onset of an erection was approximately 9 minutes in the participants of the study.
