It is a great enemy of middle -aged and elderly men.For a long time, people have always had a wrong concept, thinking that it is inevitable to have impotence in middle -aged and elderly people.However, contemporary medical research has confirmed that impotence has nothing to do with age. What really causes impotence is other diseases accompanied by increased age and drugs used for the treatment of diseases.
The formal scientific name of impotence is erectile dysfunction, which means that male genitals cannot be erected and sufficient to perform sexual intercourse.The phenomenon of impotence is actually quite common.According to a random sampling survey in the United States, 52 % of the 709 people who were investigated 40 & mdash; 709 were acknowledged that there was erectile dysfunction, and 10 % of them could not erected.
Is impotence the inevitable phenomenon after men who are young, or are it more complicated than this reason?Professor Arnold Melmann of the Einstein School of Medicine in New York said that male impotence is actually not related to age, but it is closely related to the disease that is often accompanied by aging.For example, about 70 % of impotence is caused by arteriosclerosis and hypertension. Those drugs that reduce blood pressure will cause erectile difficulties after entering the male genitals;The problem, but it is indeed an important factor that causes erectile disorders.Others, such as chronic kidney disease, can also cause impotence. Almost all people suffering from chronic kidney disease without good treatment have genital erection.Pelvic surgery sometimes cuts the nerves to cause impotence, and half of the diabetic patients have erectile impairment.In addition, many drugs such as treating hypertension, allergies, depression, ulcers and poor appetite have side effects of impotence.
As for psychological factors, Professor Arnold believes that only 10 & mdash; 20 % of impotence is caused by this, but for more than 70 % of the other 70 % of the impotence caused by physiological reasons, anxiety also played an important role.For example, patients understand that taking anti -hypertension drugs will cause impotence, so that patients are anxious about taking this drug. This psychological resistance increases the secretion of antipolging hormones, and the patient will fall into another & mdash;& mdash; Many men actually have normal erectile ability, but because these additional anxiety cannot be erected.
As for the physiological mechanism of male genital erection, Professor Arnold's latest research results confirmed that the erectile erection of male genitals is actually not the result of muscle contraction, but contains the factors that flow to the genitals.When the blood flowing to the genitals is more than 10 times, and the pressure is increased in the germ bodies, the genitals will erected because of this.If the blood flow path occurs or obstacles, the genitals cannot erected, because damage or obstacles will reduce blood flow, reduce stress, and reduce the ability to relax the smooth muscle of the genitals.one.Professor Alder Melman also added that arterial blood vessels responsible for male genital blood supply are very small and are only half millimeters in diameter. Therefore, these blood vessels are very vulnerable to arteriosclerosis or diabetes damage.In other words, male impotence may also be a sign of other severe slowness.Those men with diabetes are adult or insulin dependence.The first sign of 13 % of the patients cannot be erected, and about 50 % of all men with diabetes have erectile impairment.
Because the side effects of many drugs can cause impotence, one of the most reasonable methods to restore male sexual function is to use other methods other than drugs to control a person's blood pressure, such as exercise, weight loss and smoking cessation.You must know that actively participating in physical exercise and controlling diet can not only avoid arteriosclerosis and hypertension, achieve the purpose of healthy and longevity, but also to improve the quality of life & mdash; scientific channels.
