Blood pressure medicines and erections: what the evidence really shows

Illustration comparing the main classes of blood pressure medicine and their reported effects on erectile function

Beta blockers and water tablets have a reputation here that the randomised data do not really support. The reputation itself turns out to be part of the problem.

Erections after prostate surgery: what recovery actually looks like

The single most useful thing to know is that early failure is not the verdict. Recovery runs on a two-to-three-year clock, not a six-week one.

Diabetes and erection problems: why the link is so strong

The commonest cause of erectile difficulty that nobody mentions at the diabetes review. It is worth raising, because it changes what gets checked.

Erectile dysfunction in your 20s and 30s: what’s usually behind it

Illustration contrasting psychological and physical contributors in younger men

Common, rarely talked about, and usually fixable. It still deserves a proper look rather than a tablet bought online.

Tadalafil daily or on demand: which dosing suits which man

Illustration comparing a daily dosing calendar with a single on-demand dose

Two ways of taking the same medicine, chosen by how often you need it — and, for some men, by the prostate.

Sildenafil side effects: what’s common, what’s rare and what needs urgent care

Illustration of a tiered side effect chart with an alert marker

Most of what happens is a blood vessel doing what the medicine tells it to. A short list isn’t, and those are the ones to know.

Viagra Connect and the other pharmacy ED medicines: what you can buy without a prescription

Illustration of a pharmacy counter with three medicine packs and a checklist

Three products, one counter, and a conversation that isn’t a formality. Here’s what the pharmacist is actually screening for.

Weight loss supplements: what the evidence actually shows

Illustration of supplement effect sizes against a meaningful threshold

No supplement sold in the UK has evidence of clinically meaningful weight loss. Several have evidence of liver injury.

Fifteen weight loss myths, and what replaced them

Illustration contrasting claims with evidence

Several of these were true when they were written. A few were never true. Two changed in the last eighteen months.

Weight loss and cholesterol: what actually moves

Illustration comparing triglyceride and LDL response to weight loss

The part of your cholesterol panel that responds best to weight loss is not the part most people are watching.
