18
years in the making, Dr Antony Atala’s mission to produce healthy functioning
penises for patients suffering from penile cancer, major penile injuries and
erectile dysfunction has successfully been achieved.
Although
still early in his studies, Dr Atala and his team of researchers have
successfully managed to grow penises for injured rabbits using smooth muscle
cells (which help penis tissues to relax during an erection) and endothelial
cells (which line blood vessels) extracted from tissue samples.
Performed
at Wake Forest
University in North Carolina, Dr Atala designed a 3
dimensional penis shaped scaffold to help mould the growth of these tissues to
ensure that when they were attached to their male hosts, they would help them
to mate, ejaculate and ultimately procreate.
And
according to popular medical journal
‘Proceedings
of the National Academy of Sciences’, this endeavour
has proven to be every bit of a success!
Growing
these rabbit penises over a 3-4 week period, once these 12 rabbits had been
given enough time to recover from having their penises replaced with their
engineered counterparts, their mating habits were observed one month, three
months and six months after the surgery.
However,
within their first encounter with these female rabbits, all 12 attempted to
mate with them – 8 of whom managed to ejaculate and 4 of whom successfully
managed to impregnate the females.
Although
it will be a long time before this research is safe enough to be implemented on
people, Dr Atala’s published findings definitely suggest that it is possible to
help men strengthen the health of their penises.
Are there any other penile medical
products out there? Search
the web and you’ll quickly find that the penile market is saturated with a
variety of different medical products that claim to help men enlarge,
strengthen and improve their penile health.
Of
all the methods out there, the ones that can offer you the safest route are
jelqing exercises, traction devices and medication.
Used
for centuries to help men attain boosted penile increases and harder erections,
Jelqing involves a 20-30 minute exercise routine consisting of 300 different
exercises.
Unfortunately
jelqing is only a temporary solution, and despite being proven to help lengthen
your penis by 1-1.5inches, to maintain these results requires constant
training.
There
are many penile pills/herbal supplements on the market that claim to treat
erectile dysfunction; however only through the utilisation of legitimate
medications such as Viagra, can you expect to experience credible results in
terms of penile strengthening, support and harder erections.
Designed
to promote increased smooth muscle relaxation, increase blood flow and harder
erections through the release of nitric oxide; Viagra has recreationally earned
itself a reputation for helping men to:
-
increase their libido
-
improve their sexual performance
-
permanently increase their penis
size
However,
similar to Jelqing the results of Viagra are only temporary and can last for up
to a few hours depending on the dosage you take.
