Does Viagra affect fertility?  This is a common issue that many are concerned about. It was rumoured that certain commonly-used lubricants have spermicidal properties which can kill the sperm, thus preventing a person from getting pregnant. However, as far as Viagra is concerned, the manufacturers guarantee there are no such side effects, and has helped millions overcome impotence and father healthy children.

All the same, certain studies, based on animal trials, do indicate that Viagra can lead to fertility reduction in some men. The studies say that Viagra might reduce the chance for the sperm to penetrate the ovum, because it sometimes leads to the premature release of an enzyme needed by the sperm to penetrate the egg; therefore preventing it from entering the ovum. However, these results are entirely based on animal trials, and no substantial proof has been found for its effect on human beings.

Viagra has, in fact, helped many across the world to regain their lost fertility, by overcoming the inability to achieve and sustain erection. It is a prescription drug for impotence treatment, and is absolutely safe for use. All the same, it is to be remembered that it is not a recreational drug or an aphrodisiac that can be used unnecessarily, and is best taken only if needed.

So far, there is no solid evidence linking Viagra to infertility. However, if in any doubt, make sure you consult your physician – or even contact us at Menscare – before deciding to buy Viagra.
