There are concerns of safety for the women who is having sex with a man who has a penile implant device for his erect.dysfunction. Apparently the implant is a prostaglandin insert, I think PGE2 - I believe VVUS's MUSE is prostaglandin insert. There are concerns that the insert might release prostaglandin into the women's vagina. As far as I know, PGE2 is a nasty prostaglandin, in that it causes bleeding and used to induce uterine contractions. I believe PGE2 is also a major mediator of pain via its actions on neuronal tissue. Perhaps someone can corraborate these facts?

Strange, they don't disclose these concerns when they hammer the table with a stock.

Of course, Viagra stays in the man's blood stream, and I believe less than 0.01% of dose escapes in the sperm. Much safer for the partner.
