Frequently Asked Question: What is the Best Sex Position for Maximum Fertility?

By James Ryan Toledo

Couples wanting to have a baby often ask this question: “What is the best sex position that guarantees pregnancy?”.

The answer is: there is no single sex position that guarantees pregnancy; but there are sexual positions that increases the chances of getting a woman pregnant. Consider these:

The keys to increasing the chances of pregnancy if we’re talking about sexual position are penetration and angle. Most doctors and sexual relationship experts would recommend position where the man is on top like the ‘default’ missionary position where the man goes and remains on top of the woman during sexual intercourse. Even better, propping a pillow or raising a woman’s leg while being in the missionary position can increase the chances of pregnancy as the semen (and the sperm contained within) is best delivered and contained into the uterus. This variation in the missionary position also enhances pleasure for both partners and provides much more intimacy than most positions.

Another highly recommended position is doggy-style wherein the woman goes on all fours or at least bends over and lets her man enter her from behind. This is a deep penetrating position that has just the right angle to deliver sperm into the uterus. For added pleasure, a man can reach for his partners breasts and or clitoris while the woman can reach into her partners scrotum while in this position.

Another useful position to remember is the spoons position where a woman lies on the side as her partner penetrates her and then subsequently lies and proceeds to thrusting at an angle. This is a deep penetrating and comfortable position, not to mention a very sensual one as both man and woman can caress themselves on the fly.

So, if there are positions that enhances your chances of getting your partner pregnant, there are also those that you would have to avoid. Positions require partners to sit,stand or have the woman on top should be generally avoided as this could let the semen spill (by virtue of gravity) out after intercourse. It is also best to stay out of sex-in-the-water routines, especially hot water for two reasons: first is that hot water decreases sperm survival rates and second, semen may just spill out of the water due to slip ups or some other factor.

Of course sexual position is not the only factor affecting fertility. The amount and quality of a man’s sperm are also significant factors in enhancing the chances of pregnancy. The hormone testosterone is a man’s deciding factor for sperm quality and quantity and health supplements like Enduranz, which contains Tongkat-Ali extract enhances testosterone production in men.

Enduranz Capsule for Men is a multi -herb natural food supplement containing Tongkat-Ali, Banaba (Lagerstroenii speciosa), Malungay (Moringa oleifera), and Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica). These herbs restore male energies that had been lost over years.

Let’s Talk About Libido

By James Ryan Toledo

“Honey, the kids are away. Maybe we can, you know.”

This is an all too familiar scenario for any married couple: the kids are out on a trip and you are all alone with your spouse. Then all of a sudden, one or both of you starts getting bright ideas on what to do next. Or you could be out there on a date and passing by a motel reminds you of things you both did when you were younger.

Libido – it’s what every man and woman on this planet experiences from day to day. There are a lot of terms for this over the years: sex drive, the urge, mojo but it all basically boils down to the instinct to have sexual intercourse. The term was first coined by renowned psychologist Sigmund Freud in his studies of the correlation between the human mind and body. Freud notes that a human being undergoes three stages of sexual maturation: oral, anal and phallic. A newborn child according to him, is already sexually aware; in the oral stage, this is manifested through the sucking of the mother’s breast. As a child undergoes development, the sexual functions shift towards the rectal region, particularly during potty training. This is the so-called anal stage. Finally, as the child reaches puberty and adulthood, his or her sexual functions manifest in their maturing genitals. This is when the last stage, the so-called phallic is reached.

Libido is primarily a state of mind. It is said that men are more likely to give in to their libido than women. Men’s libido is almost always compared to a match that easily lights up while women’s libido is usually compared to that of a slow-heating oven. Whatever the case, men and women are both prone to lack of libido.

The lack of libido stems from a lot of factors. In men, some of the physical causes pointed are: stress, lack of sleep, lack of testosterone, the presence of cardiovascular disease and diabetes among the major causes. For women, anemia, overactive pituitary glands, the ‘rest period’ after childbirth adds in to the physical factors causing lack of libido. But emotional factors are what ties men and women together when lack of libido is concerned. Domestic problems are pointed out as the number one cause, though infidelity, latent homosexuality and other marital problems are also on the list.

Some pieces of advice for people having problems with their libido: for those who mainly experience the physical factors perhaps a change in diet might solve the issue. Common aphrodisiacs are a good way of getting that spark to light up again. For emotional problems, a good talk with the spouse might patch things up and may lead to surprising results although for some extreme cases, intervention and advice from a certified marriage counselor might do better.

Health and dietary supplements can also help, one of the more widely available is Enduranz tablets which contain Tongkat-Ali extracts proven to increase libido.

Enduranz Capsule for Men is a multi -herb natural food supplement containing Tongkat-Ali, Banaba (Lagerstroenii speciosa), Malungay (Moringa oleifera), and Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica). These herbs restore male energies that had been lost over years.

Sex (and the health benefits you might not know about!) Part 1

By Geoffrey Borgonia

So you’re in the mood, it’s a cool night and you’re with your special someone and all signals point to some lovin’ going to happen. Lucky you! But it’s a sure bet that the last thing on you’re thinking about before the deed is boosting your immune system or maintaining a healthy weight. If you didn’t know, good sex has many physical health benefits during and after the nookie.

Joy Davidson, PhD (a New York psychologist and sex therapist) says it comes as a surprise to a lot of people. “Of course, sex is everywhere in the media,” she says. “But the idea that we are vital, sexual creatures is still looked at in some cases with disgust or in other cases a bit of embarrassment. So to really take a look at how our sexuality adds to our life and enhances our life and our health, both physical and psychological, is eye-opening for many people.”

This is particularly true here in the Philippines which is still a “conservative” nation. Sex education is a much debated topic involving different sectors (the government, NGOs, the church, etc.)

Still, it pays to know at least the benefits good sex does the human body, according to Davidson and other experts. The benefits aren’t just anecdotal or hearsay — each of these 10 health benefits of sex is backed by scientific scrutiny.

In this series, we’ll tackle those benefits one by one. First up: sex and stress (and no its more than just the feel good sensation after the act).

Good sex lowers blood pressure and overall reduces stress, according to researchers from Scotland whose findings can be found in the journal ‘Biological Psychology’. A study was conducted on 24 women and 22 men, keeping records of their sexual activity.The researchers then subjected them to stressful situations — such as speaking in public and doing verbal arithmetic (anyone who’s been through this knows what a nightmare it can be)  – and taking notes of their blood pressure response to stress. Those who had full intercourse had better responses to stress than those who engaged in other sexual behaviors (though they didn’t specify what exactly, hmmm…) or totally abstained.

In another study published in the same journal it was concluded that frequent intercourse was associated with lower diastolic blood pressure for both male and female. Still other research found a link between partner hugs and lower blood pressure in women.

Enduranz Capsule for Men is a multi -herb natural food supplement containing Tongkat-Ali, Banaba, Malungay, andGotu Kola. These herbs restore male energies that had been lost over years.

Its main ingredient, Tongkat-Ali is a herbal supplement that brings back the normal testosterone level that has declined with age. It can help in male infertility problems and erectile dysfunction. It is also proven that this kind of herb can produce arousal and sexual motivation.

Malungay is known to have anti-oxidant properties and has high calcium content. Banaba improves glucose and metabolism, while Gotu Kola is known to be an aphrodisiac because of its capabilities to enhance mental abilities, improving blood circulation, wound healing, anti-stress and works against rheumatism. With all of these in one capsule, you can get a healthy body while enjoying your manhood.

Work and Libido

By James Ryan Toledo

Men are expected to be the breadwinners of the family, and today’s jobs demand more than physical prowess to get through. An average male spends around 10 hours or more out of their homes commuting and working each day, for around 5 to 7 days a week. With this kind of routine, stress comes in and becomes a very significant limiting factor to an individual.

There are current studies being done correlating stress with men’s health and stress. According to these studies, men’s health and stress levels are inversely related; which means that the harder a man works the greater the risk of him burning out. Not to mention that stress also lessens a man’s libido overtime which, through time, may present itself as erectile dysfunction and impotence.

Being a developing country, the Philippines rely on heavy manpower and with this we are renowned all over the world for being such industrious workers through and through. A typical Filipino male is accustomed to laborious jobs. More often than not, after a good hard day’s work, a man could simply lie down and rest to work another day.

But sometimes too must rest and relaxation can be counterproductive. More Filipino men are shifting to white-collar jobs that do not really require much physical activity. Call center jobs, clerical positions and Information technology positions are preferred these days and usually men in these jobs complain about lacking some fire and passion in bed. One of the reasons for weakened libido is a man’s lifestyle itself. Men can become sedentary in and out of work and this can be bad. Let’s take a call center agent for example; a typical call center agent could spend almost his entire shift sitting in front of his systems. When his shift ends, an agent would usually commute and then lay his back on his comfortable sofa or bed for some rest. Same thing goes for the rest of his work week and as his rest days come, a common white collar man would spend it in front of the television watching his games or what not.

Again, this kind of routine is counter-productive and if this results to reproductive problems like erectile dysfunction, then there’s a need for you Juan, to stand up and do a little exercise. The key to a healthy sex life and in the long term, life itself is physical activity. First thing a man should do in case he’s facing this kind of dilemma is to get enough sleep and nutrition. Health supplements like Enduranz tablets, which are packed with Tongkat-Ali would certainly help in sparking up and maintaining the sexual spark in any man.

So, after getting the right amount of rest and nutrition, the next thing to do is to help the body relax and distress itself. When you feel that you had enough relaxation, don’t jump into heavy exercises yet. Do this instead, start with some light exercises first. You can then proceed to cardio-vascular and flexibility exercises when you are done with the lighter routine for fuller effect.

Enduranz Capsule for Men is a multi -herb natural food supplement containing Tongkat-Ali, Banaba (Lagerstroenii speciosa), Malungay (Moringa oleifera), and Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica). These herbs restore male energies that had been lost over years.

Understanding Erection

By James Ryan Toledo

Masculinity has always been attributed to things long, hard and erect. In Eastern medicine, masculinity is linked to Yang, the positive force that drives the universe opposite Yin, the feminine, negative force. In bed, a man is measured in his performance and endurance. And how long and how good a man performs depends on his erection.

A man’s erection is as primal as it can get. Call it by any other name: ’hard-on’, ‘boner’, ‘flag ceremony’; an erection is an important aspect in the art and science of lovemaking. As simple as it may feel and sound, an erection is a mish-mash of hormonal, electrical and physical signals from the penis to the brain and vice-versa.

Here’s a simplified picture of an erection: once a man is sexually aroused, the brain will start to send out signals to various glands involved in the process. The brain will also send more blood into the penis. As the penile tissues gradually fills up with blood, the formerly spongy and saggy tissues will reach a turgid or hardened state, completing the erectile process. As a man reaches climax, the blood form the penis will immediately draws out from the tissues in a so-called flaccid state.

Men have little control over their erections. Proof of this are morning erections where a man wakes up with an erection even when not aroused during sleep. Relaxed states can induce erections which are often the case in adolescents. It is very important to remember that an erection is largely a mental process, tactile (touch) and visual stimulation are only a part of the process.

And in this light there are some situations in which a man might lose and/or might not sustain his erection. Among these problems are emotional, physical and hormonal in nature. Stress and a man’s attitude towards his partner can make or break his capability to maintain an erection. In these cases, a counselor can help to bring out the root cause of emotional erectile problems.

Diabetics are also more prone to erectile problems than normal persons as diabetes can bring about damage to the reproductive tract. A block in the blood vessels in the penile area can also present some problems. If you think that you are experiencing any of these problems, consult your physician immediately to perform any of the more popular and safe tests such as nocturnal penile tumescence, urine tests or ultrasound.

Hormonal levels can also greatly affect erections. A proper erection cannot be attained if there is a lack of testosterone produced by the testes. Supplements like Enduranz, which contains Tongkat-Ali and other herbs can help the testes to produce more testosterone for better erections.

Enduranz Capsule for Men is a multi -herb natural food supplement containing Tongkat-Ali, Banaba (Lagerstroenii speciosa), Malungay (Moringa oleifera), and Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica). These herbs restore male energies that had been lost over years.
