Sex without Aneros

Greetings-

I just ordered my first Aneros...a Helix...because of what occured during a recent visit to the doctor. When I went in for my first prostate exam, I was very uncomfortable with having a finger up my ass. Following my exam, however, I was hornier than I had been in months, and my orgasms were much more powerful than normal. I also experienced a much "stiffer" erection. This effect lasted for about ten days. Since then I have been looking for a way to reproduce these effects. I thought the Aneros looks promising.

My question is this: does the Aneros positively effect ones sexual well-being even when it is not inserted? Does anyone have anythng to share about this?
