The male body is affected by many factors. All of them to some extent affect the state of erection.
What potency depends on is a question that interests many men.
Classification of internal causes
All factors can be divided into several groups:
- psychological;
- physiological;
- constitutional.
Psychological
The emotional state has a strong influence on the state of a man's erection. The effect is, in some cases, more pronounced than age, testosterone levels in the blood and the condition of the blood vessels.
This means: even a young man whose physical parameters are normal can suffer from erectile dysfunction, which has developed in the background of psychological factors.
The main psychogenic reasons that affect potency are:
- Stress at work.Problems, team problems, dissatisfaction with one's own work often lead to a decrease in libido. A man who returns home from an unloved job has no desire for intimacy. Problem solving: take control of a situation, resolve conflict situations, or find a new job. If the above options are not suitable, then you can try to have a hobby in which a person will realize himself. In extreme cases, sedatives will help calm the nervous system.
- Family misunderstandingis another problem. Harmony and respect in family relationships are based on trust between partners. If a man hides his problems from his partner, then the situation is made worse. The solution lies in a conversation that will help you understand each other.
- The monotony of intimate lifein regular partners leads to a decrease in libido and erectile function. You can diversify sex by going to an unusual place together, new positions, role-playing, you just need to turn on your imagination.
- Prolonged lack of sexin men leads to psychological problems consisting of failure to think. If the problem does not resolve itself, you should contact a specialist - a sex therapist, because psychogenic erectile dysfunction can occur.
- Potency in men depends directly on the woman. A well-groomed, beautiful woman with a pleasant appearance and a warm attitude provokes excitement much more strongly than a messy person who constantly scandalizes.
- Depressionis an extreme degree of psychological problems. Man loses interest in life and the world around him, suicidal thoughts appear, fatigue increases and performance decreases, he suffers from insomnia, loss of appetite and weight loss. At the same time, the erection disappears. The condition is treated by a specialist using special pharmacological preparations.
Some psychotherapists believe that potency is affected by the number of sexual partners.
The more short-term relationships a man has, the more he shows up in an erection.
Psychological problems begin to appear in middle age, when sex “becomes boring” and ceases to be pleasurable.
Constitution
There are some body characteristics that affect male potency.
- Overweight. Obesity is characterized by the presence of excess fat in the body. In addition to causing the development of many diseases of the internal organs, obesity also causes an increase in female hormones in the blood. The processes of aromatization of androgens into estrogens take place in adipose tissue cells. Female hormones accumulate and cause even greater obesity, but with localization of deposits on the face and thighs. In the mammary glands, the growth of glandular tissue begins, gynecomastia is formed. The voice may become a tone higher. Libido decreases, and the erection becomes insufficiently firm.
- Age. Testicular function for testosterone production peaks at the age of 18-30. By the age of 18, young men are in puberty, which is characterized by the development of genitals and secondary sexual characteristics. From the moment of maturation to the age of 30, the level of testosterone in the blood of healthy men is the highest. From the age of 30, testicular function gradually, very slowly, begins to disappear. After 50 years, androgens become half less than 25 years old. Male strength is directly dependent on testosterone. The hormone stimulates the growth, development and normal functioning of the genitals, normalizes spermatogenesis, is responsible for body hair growth, vocal tone and muscle growth, and also increases libido. In old age, erection problems begin precisely because of the reduction of androgens.
- Genetic predisposition.The state of potency is inherited, like the size of the penis. If the father and grandfather have excellent potency in old age, then the probability will be that both the son and the grandson will have it.
- Hypogonadismis insufficient testosterone levels in the blood. There are many reasons. These are congenital anomalies in the structure of the testicles, toxic damage, infectious, radiation. Pituitary hypogonadism is also isolated when there are problems with the synthesis of gonadotropic hormones in the pituitary gland.
Constitutional factors are the most difficult to adjust. Proper lifestyle, use of products that stimulate potency, weight loss can help restore erectile function.
For genetic and testicular diseases, treatment is based on testosterone replacement.
Physiological
The largest group of factors that affect potency.
- Bad habits. Smoking is the most harmful for potency. One cigarette smoked results in a dose of nicotine sufficient for vasospasm in the whole body for fifteen minutes. They suffer, including vessels that feed the pelvic organs. Smoking more than five cigarettes a day reduces potency by fifty percent compared to the norm. Moderate drinking of alcoholic beverages has a beneficial effect on erection, as vasodilation occurs, which facilitates the filling of the penis with blood. If a man suffers from alcoholism, it negatively affects his erection, primarily his libido. Against the background of craving for alcohol, the attraction to women disappears.
- Sports activitiesaffect potency in different ways. Swimming, running, yoga increase and stimulate erections. Cycling negatively affects testosterone synthesis due to prolonged testicular contraction. Excessive exercise with the cataract leads to the appearance of intervertebral hernias, which invade the veins and nerves that go to the pelvis, which can also cause erectile dysfunction.
- Regular sex life. Each of them has a different frequency of intercourse over a period of time. There is no need to do violence to yourself to prove your supermacho partner to your partner. Excessive sexual activity in the future can lead to libido problems.
- Relationship rate.Scientists consider the normal number of relationships between men aged twenty-five to forty-five to be once a week to once a day. The average number of relationships per week is three times. But this indicator is individual. .
- Diethas a pronounced effect on erectile function. Consumption of products that increase male strength will prevent future problems. Abuse of fried, fatty, fast foods causes an increase in blood cholesterol and the development of atherosclerosis in the pelvic pelvis. It is a problem of improper erection and decreased libido.
- Inflammatory diseasesof the genitals, especially the prostate. Prostatitis causes pain in the perineum, fever, erectile dysfunction and difficulty urinating. Treatment of prostatitis should be comprehensive, under the supervision of a urologist, then there is every chance of restoring potency.
- Diabetes mellitusis a disease that significantly affects male potency. Under the influence of a large amount of glucose in the blood, pathological changes occur in the vessels and nerves throughout the body. Men with diabetes suffer from a lack of sensitivity on the genitals and poor blood circulation in the penis. Treatment is only a drug with the participation of urologists and endocrinologists.
Environmental factors
These include:
- Ecology, which primarily affects testosterone synthesis and sex drive levels.
- Professional features. Problems are usually experienced by those who have an inactive job. For drivers, the heated seat joins the stagnant processes of the prostate, which also negatively affects the work of the genitals. It is difficult for developers to sit in one position for a long time. Men who hold managerial positions are prone to erectile dysfunction, psychogenic problems join due to stress.
It is impossible to keep in mind and correct all the factors that affect erectile function. The main thing to remember is that what is good for the whole organism is also good for male strength.
