What is your Erection Hardness Score?

Have you heard of the Erection Hardness Score (EHS) which is used to grade the quality of an erection? The Erection Hardness Score was developed by the European Association of Urology, and how it works is it grades erection quality based on a scale of one to four.

The levels/grades are:

  • Level one – The erection feels like tofu, and the penis is large, but not hard.
  • Level two – The erection is like peeled banana, but still not hard enough for penetration.
  • Level three – The erection is like an unpeeled banana, which is hard enough for penetration, but not completely, and it is not sustainable.
  • Level four – The erection is completely hard, rigid, and able to penetrate easily and sustained for a relatively long time.

According to a recent regional survey done by Pfizer (yes, they make Viagra) in Asia Pacific, many men that experience dissatisfaction in their sexual lives or are suffering from erectile dysfunction usually only achieve a level three erection. The percentage varies from region to region, but the number is a lot higher than you think.

If you’re one of those men that rarely achieve a level/grade four erection, you’re likely to have sex less often, will be less sexually satisfied, and you may suffer from lack of self confidence, perhaps even depression. This erection grading system is a good way to evaluate your own erections and determine if you actually have any problems.

Erection hardness has a lot to do with sexual desire. Boosting your sexual desire will also boost your erection, unless you have a genuine physical problem related to the flow of blood into and out of, your penis.

VigRX Plus is designed to work on many fronts to improve your sex life, including boosting your libido (sexual desire), and improving the flow of blood throughout the penile tissues. This helps a lot if your erection problem has to do more with physical aspects rather than psychological causes. Also, VigRX Plus does not have side effects, because it is composed only of the highest grade male aphrodisiac herbs, which all have a proven track record of enhancing your sexual life, spanning hundreds and thousands of years, and now combined in one easy to take capsule, and boosted with the addition of Bioperine, a substance that can increase absorption rates many times over.

How to Increase Penis Size?

condom-syringeAsk most men, and they’ll tell you that they are not satisfied with their penis size. That’s the open secret among men. We all wish we had a larger penis which would sweep any gal off her feet! And mention penis size, and some will start thinking about surgery. But is surgery the only way to increase penis size? Not at all!

But first, a common fallacy needs to be addressed. One of the most common myths floating around is that a penis can be significantly enlarged even in a flaccid state, and there are products that help the penis to be perpetually large all the time. This is simply not true. In the first place, a flaccid penis is never fully flaccid, unless you’re experiencing cold temperatures (and feeling cold at the same time). Notice your penis is at it’s smallest when you’re feeling cold. Meaning, there is hardly such a thing as full flaccidity. A penis that appears large even when flaccid is not really in a truly flaccid state.

There are no such things as products that increase penis size even in a flaccid state, except through surgery. The ONLY way to achieve this is to obtain surgical implants inside your penis! But always remember that the doctors are right when they say that a small flaccid penis is hardly an indicator of its size when ERECT.

Let’s take a look at the common and not so common methods of increasing penis size that have been tried by many men from then till now.

Herbal supplements

Herbal supplements are perhaps the most popular method used in effecting a larger penis. The upside to herbal supplements is that they don’t cost much when compared to surgery, but the downside is the SAFETY.

You see, many herbal supplements are manufactured under no supervision and quality controls. Hygiene and efficacy of the herbs are always questionable. Common side effects noticed with low quality herbal male “enhancers” include varying degrees of liver poisoning, colds, rashes and sneezing.

The solution is to only purchase quality herbal products from brands you can trust. A huge plus factor is the length of time the product has stayed on the market. A product like VigRX Plus (of which the original VigRX has been sold for many years), is a good example of a relatively trusted brand all around.

Mechanical methods

Increasing penis size through penis pumps is another method that may work for some people. They work by creating a vacuum which pressurizes the penis, but the drawback is that it may injure the penis. If you choose a penis pump, make sure it fits your penis. The pump is fitted at the base of the penis, and in the case of hard rimmed penis pumps, may lead to cuts on the nerves, veins, and ligaments. The penis is actually more fragile than most think, and there have been cases of serious injury occurring due to misuse or mishaps involving penis pumps.

Surgery

Surgery is the most expensive method, but agreeably effective. There are also risks in addition to costs. The risk of a botched surgery is not something to be laughed at. Permanent damage, even necessary removal of the penis has occurred before, due to surgical accidents or incompetent doctors. There are mainly 3 types of penis surgery:

  1. Silicone implants – Implants are inflated via an inserted pump.
  2. Cutting and removal of ligaments – Useful for treating curved penis syndrome, but may not be suitable for everyone.
  3. Penile injections – Silicone is often injected into the penis

Like breast implants, surgery artificially boosts the size of the penis, but the hazards reported are loss of sensation/sensitivity in the penis, and leakage of silicon. Is it worth the high cost?

Massage and exercise

Massages and exercise is good for the body (and the penis too). Some methods of massage include jelqing (milking), clamping, stretching, and hanging. Jelqing has been likened to the squeezing movements in milking a female breast, while clamping is a crude way to simulate the effect of a penis ring. Stretching and hanging the penis using strings and weights have also been attempted. If done wrongly or in excess, they may lead to permanent disfigurement of the penis, so be careful with these unproven methods.

Keeping fit and healthy is always the best way to keep your penis in good running condition. If you’re overweight, the flab around the penis area may make it look smaller. Also, being overweight decreases your stamina, and this will extend to your sexual life.

The best penis enlargement solution, all things considered

The best solution to increase penis size, taking into account cost, risks and effectiveness, would be a high quality, all natural herbal formulation like VigRX Plus. Not only does VigRX Plus help give you a better, larger erection, but more importantly, it boosts your sexual stamina, and improves your health in other areas as well. This is because of the huge range of herbal extracts in its formulation, manufactured using the best technology available. This ensures the herb’s potency is intact, and with the patented Bioperine in the formulation, gives the biggest bang for your buck.

What constitutes a large or small penis?

Is penis size really all that important? More precisely, is it important today? In ancient times, men did not worry about penis size because it was not an issue at all. Just look at the statues of Greek and Roman gods. A large penis could be a disadvantage in hand to hand combat and people back then viewed large penises as comical and unsightly.

Today however, our society has become “phallocentric,” and every guy wants to have a large penis (at least in secret). Some men are so concerned about others looking down on their penis size that they make requests to the companies which manufacture penile enhancers to put down a different name on their credit card statements.

Most men have a very vague idea about the true size of their penises and consider themselves as below average, when in fact; they are of average size, or above average. Most sex experts say that women do not rate penis size as important, but just try convincing any man about that. Generally, men who believe they have large penises are more self confident than men who think otherwise. Penis size is a really big issue these days.

For most men out there, the average erect penis size is roughly 5-6 inches long. That’s not very long if you ask me. According to the International Journal of Impotence, the average penis length is 5.35 inches or 13.6 cm. A 1991 Lifestyle Condoms survey put it as 5.9 inches, or 14.9 centimeters. Then, you have an old survey done by Alfred C Kinsey way back in 1948 that concluded the average penis size was 6.21 inches.

Such variance exists because of differences in genetics, diet and exposure to pollution. Especially these days, the foods we eat are contaminated with many types of chemicals and pesticides, which could have negative effects on our growth, height, DNA, and genital size. These variations could also be due to inconsistent measurement of the penis.

Based on these findings, a large penis size would be something in the region of 8 inches and more. The biggest penis size so far documented is 13.5 inches. Large penis size does not appear to have any relation to reproductive ability, but in the porn industry, a large penis is an essential prerequisite for any male actor. And of course, with all the hype about a large penis, having one that is of reasonable size at least, helps in quite a number of situations.

One thing to remember, is that the size of a penis in a flaccid state, has no relation to its size when erect. Some irresponsible products make claims that their product can enlarge the penis even in a flaccid state. This is scientifically untrue. Real penis size is always taken to mean the size during a full fledged erection.

If you’re looking to get a larger erection, make sure the solution you choose is both safe and healthy at the same time. This means herbal based penis enlargement pills like the popular VigRX Plus, are the best way to go.
