No one won: not triathlon related at all and could be offensive to some.

Not many people entered my Tri-mix contest. Maybe those who actually know what it is, don't want to admit it. Good answers though. To be fair, Sam is kind of right: in diving "tri-mix" is what they call the gases in the tank, but it's not what I was referring to.

I was actually at work and prescribing this for someone. I looked up something about it and found out that it's also called "tri-mix." Since this is first "tri" word I've come across in months not related to triathlon, I had to post about it.

So, the answer...  [drumroll]

It's a combo of 3 medications - papaverine, phentolamine, alprostadil - for erectile dysfunction.

It's injected, uh, directly into the penis. Ouch. i know the men are wincing right now.

To be even more sadistic, I will go into details.

You should use a little bitty needle, like a diabetic syringe:

If are into pain, I guess you could inject it with this BIG needle. 

I think I've just created a new fetish: the "injecting-your-penis-with-erectile-dysfunction-medication with a 14-gauge-needle" fetish. oh, well more work for me.

And of course, strictly for medical purposes, a diagram of actually where to inject:

It was fun to write about this; maybe I'll get a second job as a dominatrix....where's my whip?

Well, the first thing I did was google it (against your request) and saw that it was an ED med so I didn't feel honest if I were to post what it was since I cheated.... sucks to be a guy. ouch. or what do they say, desperate times call for desperate measures??

Just stay away from me with that thing. I'm doing just fine in "that department" thank you very much.

I thought you were a head doc.

Not that head, I mean.

tgh: yes, but psych meds cause a lot of sexual side effects unfortunately.

[Paul]

OMG. Like other perverted minds, I thought it had something to do with sex, but not like this!

Quick question - wouldn't Viagra be a lot, um, less painful?!! Why the tri-mix?

[blink140.6]

The subject in your "strictly for medical purposes diagram" is obviously not a serious triathlete with all that hair.

Too much drag.

Still wincing though.

[william]

i knew that. i use penta-mix myself.

[Jane]

Will - that's a weird comment. It means you are admitting you have erectile dysfunction...

Paul: to get back into doctor mode, viagra is systemic and can not be taken esp if you have heart problems. the injection is a littel safe in that regard.
