You need to be FULLY aware of the facts positive and negative before you start dosing yourself up with prostaglandins. There are a lot of negatives - one being you can't allow the cream to get into contact with women of child bearing age.
Assuming you use the cream, not the injection or penile suppository you'd have to rub it on, apply condom, wash hands and exposed area, and make sure the bloody thing doesn't break or come off.
Or are you capable of injecting your cock? Or ramming a pellet up your japs eye?
Besides that there are several health issues as well. Very important you speak to a specialist before you even think of it.

So you can only shag grannies and you have to inject it into your cock or stick a pill down your penis?

I think I'll pass.

I tried the one where a pellet was injected into the urethra I think it was a Caverjet, god it was painful. Not the actual injection but the after effects. Ended up taking painkillers before eventually writing the stuff off.
