  • Preventative measures such as using properly fitted bicycles, adjusting riding style and seat position, and choosing appropriate seats can help reduce the risk of cycling-related ED.
  • The current research highlights a need for further studies on safe bicycle design and the biological mechanisms behind cycling-related sexual dysfunction in both men and women.]

@IFnubia Harus bisa jadi diskusi asyik, Kang. Biar publik juga tahu bagaimana bersepeda yang baik dan benar baik dari pandangan pesepeda berpengalam dan ahli urologi. Mungkin ini juga bisa jadi rujukan. https://t.co/JmbA94kKDN
