According to British doctors, Viagra can be related to the increased number of STDs (sexually transmitted disease) occurring in older men, since the drug fuels extramarital sexual relations.

Launched in the market 10 years ago, Viagra changed the sexual lives of a great number of men suffering from erection problems. Since that time the ED drug has developed into a well-known brand name. The ‘magic blue pill’ is believed to work wonders and give hope to those who have lost the usual joy of life. However, too much joy can also be a problem.

As British health information sources suggest, the ED drugs can be linked to the recent three-fold increase of such STDs as gonorrhea in men over 45 years of age. The increase is 4 times bigger than that in teenagers.

According to John Dean, president of the International Society for Sexual Medicine, Viagra provides men with more sexual freedom which often leads to extramarital affairs. Frequent changes of sexual partners are a major cause of sex-related diseases.

Although the drug can hardly be blamed for reckless behavior, the British findings do indicate that Viagra pretty much does its job. As for the consequences, they are rather a result of human shortcomings, then a medication issue.
