Does Cialis Help Cure Penis Shrinkage?

Posted on Tue, 18 Apr 2017

Question: My husband has been taking Cialis secretly. When I found it, he lied about it… He says it is because occasionally when he gets either cold from skiing or hot from hiking, his penis somewhat inverts and it is painful. Are these symptoms that can be relieved by Cialis? I have my doubts as he has other symptoms of cheating.

Brief Answer:
not really

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM.
Well, what I can tell is that Cialis is not used for these symptoms and the only indication is erectile dysfunction so his story is bit strange. However, excessive penis shrinkage due to temperature changes is common in many people and he may have thought that it would help him in these conditions,but Cialis cant be prescribed for this by his doctor since this is treated on other ways.
SO if he did not take it because of you, it is most probable that he took it for someone else I am afraid so you should discuss it with him.
Wish you good health. Regards

His actual excuse was that it can temporarily almost invert when he skis or goes hiking, which I don't believe at all. This was the excuse he came up with after he got back from the trip where he hid the Cialis in his deodorant lid… and had two days to come up with it. He's had four years of lying to me about everything where he could've told me about this medical condition, initially, if he didn't want me to think he was having an affair for 4 years… (if the inversion issue was in fact the case), that is what anyone who is honest wouldtell their wife instead of putting her through hell… besides, just because it shrinks when it is hot or cold, which is very very normal, what is the big deal? I have three boys, I know all about penises! Hee

Brief Answer:
Hi

Detailed Answer:
Yes,you are right. it is bad excuse that cialis is used for penis shrinkage,since it is not indicated for this purpose and also it won't help to avoid shrinkage due to cold. You can ask him to show you medical documentation to prove cialis prescription for this purpose and I am sure he won't have it...
