For as long as humankind has had erections, it has thought to itself, “This is all well and good, but what if it was that little bit harder?” People have turned to all kinds of methods to make hard-ons harder, boners bonier, erections more erect.
Many ancient recommendations involved rubbing various substances into the penis. At one point in ancient Egypt crushed crocodile hearts were suggested, a fairly unerotic prospect (particularly for the crocodile). Medical texts from ancient Greece, authored by the second-century physician Galen, feature a variety of solidifying treatments. Rubbing honey — sometimes mixed with pepper — into the penis was said to help, as was a fairly unpalatable-sounding concoction made from post-sex bull urine mixed with soil.
If any of these were successful, it’s difficult not to think that the rubbing was doing most of the work.
Not all treatments were topical and applied directly to the area in question — there were plenty of orally-taken medicines said to result in harder penises. Arugula and honey mixed together was said to help, as was eating a stag’s penis or a medicine made from lizards’ kidneys.
Greek physician Aelius Promotus wrote, sometime around the second or third centuries, of the erection-boosting powers of arugula, peppers and celery mixed with wine, taken after a hot bath, assuring people that three days of this would lead to “amazing” results.
