It is becoming clearer that the future for Viagra is very bright...

Ukmedix news has come across a story that made us all sit up in the newsroom. Apparently a UK mother conceived and gave birth to twins after using erectile dysfunction drug Viagra. She had tried many different fertility treatments and had sought medical help for her problem for over six years. She was becoming distraught and was becoming increasingly tearful as she believed that she would never get pregnant.

You may be thinking that it was her husband who was prescribed the Viagra in order to make her conceive but this is not the case. Doctors prescribed her Viagra as some medical experts believe that the arterial opening properties of Viagra can improve blood flow to the reproducing organs of a woman and therefore make her more fertile. Viagra is not technically allowed to be prescribed to woman but in this case it seems to have worked in a different way for the woman in question.

Pfizer have in the past tested Viagra with women in the hope that it would also (like it does for men) increase sexual pleasure and ability, but this was not the case and Pfizer gave up testing the drug on women. If however if this case can be clinically proven and that it can be clearly shown that when women take Viagra their chances of conceiving is improved Pfizer may well be on to another blockbuster use for their world famous impotence drug Viagra.

It is becoming clearer that the future for Viagra is very bright not just as an erectile dysfunction drug but it has been shown to help those who suffer from pulmonary arterial hypertension and has been licensed as the drug Revatio.  It is being extensively tested so that it can be used as the heart drug and it may be that it could help people who have just suffered from heart attacks or to reduce the probability of suffering from a heart attack in the first place.  It has even been used on tiny children who have been born with arterial difficulties.
