> I've heard that it may cause problems because norepinephrine mimics the flight or fight response and that the blood flow of a penis needs to be relaxed for an erection to occur.
I can't say that I agree with that. It's possible I suppose, but, the opposite would seem more fiitting, IMO.I'm of the thinking a penis would be somewhat stimulated, not relaxed? Just a guess though.
Hopefully the side effect will resolve.
