Millions of men are looking for a way to rejuvenate their sex drive and overcome erectile dysfunction challenges. More than 30 million men in the US are affected by this problem each year.

Manufacturers realize the extent of the dilemma and eagerly introduce countless products claiming to have the power to resolve the issue.

Some of these products really do work, and some of these products have so little information about them that it’s nearly impossible to tell if it works or not.

But how do you know which ones work best? Should you try pills or creams or both? What’s the difference in the way these products work? Which one is right for you? These are all questions you may be asking and you need answers, so let’s explore the pros and cons of these two types of products.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Male Enhancement Creams

Most male enhancement products available without a prescription, whether they are pills or creams, contain ingredients that come from nature. Often the pills and creams may contain the same ingredients, herbs like ginkgo biloba, epimedium, and saw palmetto. So if the ingredients are the same, what’s the difference?

Creams are convenient for quick results. You need to apply the cream about 30 minutes before you plan on having sex. They are rubbed directly on the penis so you can use applying the cream as part of the foreplay activities if you like. Then you have to wait for the reaction to take place.

Unfortunately, if you depend on creams, you probably won’t have time for sex on your lunch hour or during other short time frames.

Another negative aspect of creams is the fact that you must have the cream available any time you want to have sex. There will probably occasions when you won’t be able to enjoy spontaneous sexual activity because you don’t have the cream with you.

The creams are only good for short-term results. They need to be applied each and every time you want to enjoy sexual relations. You might see some residual results if you use the cream often enough over a long period, but that usually doesn’t happen.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Male Enhancement Pills

Male enhancement pills such as Vigrx Plus are taken daily. The goal is to increase your virility enough that you can achieve and maintain an erection whenever you’re in the mood.

There are a couple of small drawbacks to pills. Some people do have difficulty swallowing pills or capsules and other people claim they experience an after taste. These problems are not the norm, however.

The biggest advantage to taking male enhancement pills is that they put you back in the game for the long run. You may need to take them for a few days or a week or two before you begin to experience the benefits, but before long, you are able to enjoy spontaneous sex whenever and wherever you want. You don’t have to carry the tube around with you, you don’t have to wait 30 minutes or longer to begin indulging in sexual activity, and you don’t have to show evidence that you need help to get an erection. It’s your secret unless you choose to reveal it.

Pills and creams both have their pros and cons, but if you are looking for a long-term solution to erectile dysfunction, pills are the better option.
