A condom that helps prolong erection in men has been developed by scientists from a British biotech enterprise. In general, the problem with condoms is that they are not used as often as they should be. The innovative product, called CSD500, is now known as the “Viagra condom”. However, his nickname is not quite accurate. The new condom is coated with a gel that has the property of dilating blood vessels. With its help, the blood flow to the penis increases and thus the erection is maintained. However, unlike the pill, the condom is not intended for men who have erectile dysfunction, but rather for those who have a problem with maintaining an erection. , when using a condom. The CSD500 has been developed by Futura Medical and is due to be approved by UK regulatory authorities soon. It is possible that the product will be on the market by the end of the year, the Wall Street Journal also writes. The “condom-Viagra” is undoubtedly an innovative idea, and because it is a measure aimed at the stronger sex. Most contraceptives, such as the pill and hormonal patches, are designed for women. How exactly does the new condom work? The gel must remain inside the condom so as not to affect the other partner in any way. During its development, the experts face the challenge of making the product inside the condom durable and resistant, while at the same time not damaging the condom itself in any way. And they achieve it. The new product has the potential to become widely distributed and used, which in turn would be a step towards better sexual health, as sexually transmitted infections would be reduced.
