Penile Erection Above 30 Minutes Harmful To Men, Medical Expert Warns
  • PublishedDecember 24, 2023

A Professor at the Department of Surgery, University of Ilorin (UNILORIN), Ademola Popoola has warned that penile erection after 30 minutes of sexual intercourse is purposeless, dangerous and harmful to men.

Popoola gave the warning in Ilorin during his paper presentation at the 250th Inaugural Lecture of the university, entitled: “That All May Pee in Peace”.

According to him, ”a person who has more than 30 minutes of erection should report immediately to the hospital”.

He stated that there was the need for the erection to be aborted as soon as possible by a competent doctor to preserve penile erection subsequently.

The expert, who observed that the penis needs to be turgid or erect for satisfactory sexual intercourse, however, said the erected penis often fractures or breaks.

“Research shows that the right side of the penis ruptures more than the left side,” he said.
