Today, men of different ages face sexual problems. The first disturbing "bells" and signs of impotence overtake both mature and young representatives of the stronger sex. The main reason for the development of erectile dysfunction at an early age (up to 40 years) is considered to be an unhe althy lifestyle, frequent stress, physical activity and chronic diseases.
Ignoring the symptoms and signs of impotence is the biggest mistake young people make. Many are in no hurry to start treatment, embarrassed to see a doctor, and sometimes admit to themselves that they have a very delicate problem. And I must say, in vain: the sooner treatment is started and the provoking factor is eliminated, the more chances a man has to return to a full sexual life, regardless of his age.
What is this
Impotence is a pathological condition, which is characterized by the inability of a man to have a full sexual relationshipdue to weak or absent erection. In the people, this ailment is often called sexual impotence.
Erection is a complex physiological process, which is associated with a chain of successive natural reactions. Each of them is influenced by the internal organs and the brain. A simple conclusion follows from this: impotence is a pathology that can occur against the background of various disorders and malfunctions in the body.
To permanently get rid of impotence, you should definitely talk to a qualified andrologist about the signs and treatment of this disease. If you want to return male power, do not delay contacting a doctor. It is unlikely that it will be possible to establish erectile function on your own. Otherwise, time will be irretrievably lost when there is still something to be done.
Impotence symptoms
Men show the same signs of the disease. At the same time, it absolutely does not matter for what reason and at what age an intimate problem arose. Erectile dysfunction is characterized by the following symptoms:
- man is aroused, but penis does not reach the necessary hardness for insertion into the vagina;
- despite strong sexual arousal, the man's penis remains in a non-erect state;
- sexual intercourse is short (lasts less than 3 minutes) as rapid ejaculation occurs;
- partner is not able to maintain an erection for a long time, so ejaculation does not occur during sexual intimacy;
- no morning and spontaneous nocturnal erections;
- attraction(libido) is reduced or absent altogether.
Causes of male impotence
Any signs of impotence in men arise due to the influence of an unfavorable factor. The causes of sexual dysfunction can be conditionally combined into two groups - physiological and psychogenic.
In the first case, we are talking about provoking factors, which can be:
- recurrent chronic diseases;
- violations of metabolic processes;
- hormonal failure;
- diabetes mellitus;
- prostate pathology.
Stressful situations, depressive states, mental disorders are psychogenic factors that cause impotence in men. The first signs of this problem are found in almost every second man over 50 years old. According to experts, such a violation of sexual function is not a sentence for the patient. If you do not delay treatment and make the necessary adjustments to your lifestyle in a timely manner, the problem will no longer bother you.
By the way, the treatment regimen for patients of different ages may differ. Not only the signs of impotence differ. Erectile dysfunction in people under 40 can be caused by one or more of the following:
- hereditary predisposition;
- impaired sexuality formation in early childhood;
- bad experience of first intimate contact;
- formation of an inferiority complex;
- fear of looking like a loser in front of a partner;
- complications afterprevious genitourinary infections.
Consequently, questions about the causes and signs of impotence in a young man should be discussed not only with an andrologist, but also with a urologist, sexologist, psychologist. Medical statistics show that in people under 40, problems in sex are most often the result of mental disorders.
At an older age, erectile dysfunction is diagnosed in almost half of the patients who complained. Signs of impotence in men at the age of 40 are in most cases caused by the natural aging of the body, the result of long-term diseases against the background of a weakened immune system. In addition, in adulthood, men are more likely to experience endocrine disorders, problems in the functioning of the cardiovascular system, neurological ailments, and inflammation of the pelvic organs. The situation is aggravated by addiction to alcoholic beverages, smoking. Long-term use of medications, excessive physical activity can affect the occurrence of erectile dysfunction.
How to get potency back
Signs of impotence, whatever they may be, are not an indication for urgent administration of erection stimulants. Even if occasionally “misfires” occur in bed, you should not immediately run to the pharmacy for Viagra. It is better to consult a specialist, rather than self-diagnose and prescribe treatment.
One-time failures during intimacy cannot be considered signs of impotence. Sexual disorder is only systemic erectile dysfunction, i.e. you need to panic only if problemsin bed happen all the time. Short-term disturbances may well be the result of hormonal imbalance, stress, fatigue. Such failures in sexual terms are not a deviation. Thus, the first sign of impotence can be called the stability of erectile dysfunction.
Depending on the factor that caused the delicate male problem, the treatment will have its own characteristics. In addition, the decision on therapy will be made by the doctor only after a thorough examination and determination of the provoking cause that led to the loss of potency. Only specialists are able to adequately assess the rationality of carrying out a particular method of therapy.
Psychologist help
Above we have described the main signs of impotence. Treatment at home is available to every man, but it is usually not very effective. One of the most effective methods is psychotherapy. It is used only in case of diagnosed sexual impotence of a psychogenic nature (according to the results of an examination by a psychotherapist). Sometimes this method is used as a measure to combat the signs of impotence during the rehabilitation period after conservative therapy for diseases of the urogenital area.
Vibration stimulation method
Specialists consider this treatment option a safe alternative to Viagra. Stimulation of the penis in this case is carried out using a special device - a vibration stimulator. In contact with the sensitive head of the penis, due to the high-frequencyVibration device starts the work of many nerve endings located on it. As a result of contact with the vibration stimulator, a man's erection occurs reflexively.
This type of treatment has no contraindications, suitable for patients suffering from any kind of sexual disorders, including impotence due to poor conduction of nerve receptors.
The use of a vibration stimulator is an ideal solution for erectile dysfunction of a psychogenic nature. Thanks to the method and use of the device, the disease passes very quickly. Psychologists explain such high results of treatment by obtaining a positive sexual experience that is not associated with the exciting expectation of one's own "fiasco". Using a vibration stimulator, the patient can be convinced over and over again that everything is in order with his male power. Over time, the panic fear of a possible problem resolves itself. After some time, anxiety before intercourse is replaced by a stone erection even without a vibration stimulator.
Other instrumental ways
- Vacuum treatment. This method consists in mechanical stimulation of the penis. This type of treatment can be used alone or as part of a set of measures to eliminate erectile dysfunction.
- Surgical intervention. Usually, this method is resorted to with a physiological sexual disorder, the causes of which are hidden in circulatory disorders, vascular diseases. The operation is performed with the sole purpose of increasing blood flow to the cavernous bodies of the penis.
- Injections. In order to get rid oferectile dysfunction in this way, a man will have to undergo a course of injections into the cavernous bodies of the penis. Drugs injected into the tissues of the penis cause vasodilation and provide a quality erection.
Drugs for potency
Today, there is a whole list of drugs, thanks to which men are guaranteed to achieve an erection without going to a doctor and undergoing the above procedures. However, doctors warn that most of the stimulant drugs have a huge list of serious contraindications and side effects.
PDE-5 inhibitors are used for instant erection stimulation. These include Viagra, Cialis, Levitra and their numerous analogues. If the doctor sees hormonal disorders in the signs of impotence, the patient will be prescribed a course of steroid drugs. As a rule, the cause of erectile dysfunction is a lack of testosterone in the blood. Its synthetic counterpart is available in tablet and injectable forms.
It is also known about many other means to improve potency, which should be used only after consultation with your doctor. Any stimulants can adversely affect the work of the heart, gastrointestinal tract, cause a severe allergic reaction. Dietary supplements are relatively safe:
- Lovelace.
- Peruvian MACA.

- Impaza.
- Verona.
- Eleutherococcus extract, magnolia vine, ginseng.
