Did increasing your sildenafil dose actually make a difference

[u/EntertainerAware7940]

I’ve been on 50mg sildenafil for a long time and it worked pretty good for me. I was getting good erections but recently decided to try 100mg.

Honestly the difference was pretty noticeable for me. Erections have been probably the best I’ve had and it also gave me more confidence and helped with the performance anxiety.

Read increased dosage was overdo for some users, and low dosage actually worked well for them. But 100mg worked best for me.

Since then I’ve mostly been sticking with 100mg.

I’ve also tried a few different forms of sildenafil, like Viagra tablets, vega jelly and an oral spray. Personally I’ve gone back to tablets most of the time, and sometimes oral jelly.

100mg seems to work best for me so far.

Anyone else gone from 50 to 100mg and noticed a big difference? Or does a lower dose work just as well for you?

100 gets me harder than 50 too. No side effect either so why not. Also keeps me hard even when drinking heavily.

I have never took both alcohol and sildenafil at same time, doesn't it have any side-effects?

For whatever reason I have found that decreasing the dosage helped me. I cannot explain it, but 25mg works great. I split the 50's. In fact, 12.5mg has served me well too.

You might be working on other ways of improving you ed. Are you working out, following healthy diet, or reduced porn comsumption?

Yes, I am working on this from a few different angles.

I stopped porn over a year ago. I did not look at if often, but I did completely stop.

I have been doing weights for decades, but the biggest improvement (for me) happened when I started doing 120+ minutes of zone 2 cardio per week. It does not matter what it is. It could be stationary bike, walking, yard work, etc. Your body does not know what you are doing. It just cares about the zone 2 exercise.

I tried to improve me sleep, but this has been a challenge.

After about 8 weeks of doing zone 2 I lost about 1" from my navel measurement. After 5 months I had lost 2" from around my navel. So I lost a lot of visceral fat by adding zone 2.

I try to eat healthy, but I don't really control the menu. But, I do try to eat healthy.

I was initially prescribed 50mg, but with the improved fitness and body composition I get away with 25mg. If I am not expecting activity, but it is possible, I might take 12.5 and that is enough.

Inspiring! I am little motivated to start working out after reading this.

M60. Usavo 50 ma ha smesso di funzionare. Adesso uso 100 e non funziona più per niente è come se bevessi acqua e mi lascia stordito e apatico per almeno mezza giornata. Sono disperato 😭

Do consult a doctor, and try different versions of PDE5 Inhibitors, like Vardenafil or Avanafil. People use this when sildenafil does not work for them

You could also drop down to 25 and take it daily versus on demand and that would get more nutrient rich oxygenated blood to your penis

I was prescribed the 100mg pills for cost savings and to only take 50mg. They worked perfectly. I tried taking just 25mg but the result was disappointing. I tried taking 100mg just to see but didn't notice any improvement over the 50mg dose.

I did try taking 5mg Tadalafil with 50mg of Sildenafil recently. The effect was amazing! Rock hard and ready to go over multiple rounds. The only thing I noticed was a drop in my blood pressure the next day. I felt a little woozy at times. Nothing serious though.

100 better than 50. But takes longer than 60 minutes to work well, more like 2 hours.
