Erectile dysfunction per se can lead to lack of sex life if not addressed properly by health care experts but it is not a sign.

  3. Action Steps:

I'm using Vigora 50 whenever I have sex, and I'm wondering if that could be dangerous. Could you let me know if there are any risks involved? If there are, I'd really appreciate some advice on what to do.

Vigora-50 contains Sildenafil, which is used to treat erectile dysfunction. It is generally safe to use as directed, but it can have potential side effects such as headache, flushing, indigestion, and changes in vision. However, if you have certain medical conditions like heart problems, it can be dangerous to use without medical supervision. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or vision changes while using Vigora-50, you should stop using it and seek medical attention.
