Does a Tumescent Member Like Vitamin D? There are a variety of factors involved in assessing male organ health, such as the condition of the manhood skin and the appearance of absence of signs indicating socially shared infections. Another area of interest where male organ health is concerned is the state of the tumescent member. How often does hardness occur, how substantial is it, how long does it remain firm, etc.? When a tumescent member is falling short of its goals, men want to find a way to correct this situation, and doctors may suggest a range of options, depending on what they believe to be the cause of the issue. A recently published study points to vitamin D as a possible factor in the health of a tumescent member. The study Entitled “Vitamin D and Male Sensual Function: A Transversal and Longitudinal Study,” the study was conducted in Italy and published in the International Journal of Endocrinology. The scientists took as their starting point a desire to add some clarity to what, if any, effect vitamin D has on sensual health. As the doctors point out, “(tumescence) is a complex phenomenon…many clinical factors are able to impair (tumescence) function…Recent clinical works have suggested that low vitamin D levels may somehow be associated with the occurrence of sensual disturbances, especially tumescence dysfunction.” The researchers pored over the medical records of 114 men who had experienced tumescent member problems over the past 15 years. Out of these men, they found 41 who had received some form of vitamin D therapy. The therapy involved supplementation of vitamin D, ranging from 50,000 to 100,000 units; some received it weekly, others every two or three weeks and still others every month. Looking at the whole group of 114 men, they found that those who had higher levels of vitamin D also had higher levels of male hormone and higher scores in terms of tumescence function (though they may still have had tumescent member issues). www.man1health.com
