Pelvic floor is a group of muscles and tissues that support the pelvic organs, including the bladder, uterus, and bowel. One of the important roles of the pelvic floor is to contribute to the process of achieving and maintaining strong erections.

During sexual arousal, the pelvic floor muscles contract, which increases blood flow to the penis and helps trap blood within the erectile tissue, resulting in a firm and sustained erection. However, weak or dysfunctional pelvic floor muscles may not contract effectively during sexual arousal, leading to difficulties in achieving or maintaining strong erections.


The pelvic floor also plays a role in ejaculation. As the muscles contract during orgasm, they help propel semen through the urethra and out of the body. Good pelvic floor health is essential for sexual function and overall quality of life. Regular exercise and pelvic floor muscle training can help maintain strong and healthy muscles, which can improve sexual function and prevent sexual dysfunction. Pelvic floor exercises, also known as Kegels, are a simple and effective way to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
