It is medical -based on erectile dysfunction, which means that male genitals cannot erection to become difficult to perform sexual intercourse.Sexual desire and sex life are one of the nature of human beings, and the elderly are no exception.However, for a long time, many people think that impotence is **** slow erection, unable to lift, and weak ejaculation. It is an inevitable natural decline in age. In fact, this is a misunderstanding.
A survey report against 800 60-90 -year -old men in the United States shows that the sexual desire of most elderly people is accompanied by life. They are interested in sexual life and have a regular sexual life. The elderly under 80 years old account for 98%, 93%over 80 years old.This shows that sexual desire is basically no age line, and it does not mean that older sexual desire and sexual life will disappear naturally.
From a physiological mechanism, male genital erection is actually not the result of muscle contraction, but mainly caused by the increase in genital blood flow.When the blood flows to the genitals by 10 times and the pressure in the genital sponge increases, the genitals will be erected.If the blood pathway is damaged or obstacle, the genitals cannot be erected and impotence will occur.Occasionally, impotence or long -term erectile dysfunction is two different concepts. The former is mostly caused by factors such as anxiety, tension, fatigue, and the latter is a common disease manifestation.
Professor Arnold Merman, Einstein Hospital, New York, said: Impotence is closely related to age.For example, about 70%of impotence is caused by arteriosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes and other related diseases, or drugs for treating these diseases.Such as diabetes can cause impotence, antihypertensive drugs, sedatives, anticancer drugs, etc. can cause side effects that cause impotence.He also believes that 10%to 20%of impotence patients are caused by psychological factors, and more than 20%of them are caused by anxiety.Some patients heard that anti -hypertension and other drugs can cause impotence, and the most prone to anxiety. This psychological resistance will cause themselves to fall into another trap.Many men actually have normal sexual function, but additional anxiety makes them unable to perform normal sexual life.
Therefore, we should correctly understand impotence and correctly understand the problem of human life.The erection speed of the elderly is slow, the time is short, the number of intervals is prolonged, and the hardness is not as good as young adults.According to your own health, sexual life is a regular life, which is an integral part of the health and longevity of the elderly.Those concepts that the elderly should be clear, not close to women, sleep alone, self -cultivation, and eliminate evil thoughts are biased.
Science tells us that sexual life is a normal need for the physiological and psychological of the elderly, and it is conducive to the physical and mental health of both husband and wife.To maintain normal sexual function, the most fundamental factors are physical and mental health, reasonable diet, and insisting on physical exercise, etc., and excessive indulgence or artificial restraint will have a bad impact on healthy and longevity.
