Different Ways to Help You Deal With Impotence

Impotence is every man’s greatest fear. It affects not only the sexual wellness and wellbeing of those affected, but also their emotional and mental health. Even the word itself seems to somehow imply failure or weakness. Those who are impotent feel that they have lost not only their sexual health but also their dignity, wholeness and masculinity.

 

Impotence, also known as erectile dysfunction can improve with treatment, however, and is not something that should just be accepted. There are many different causes of erectile dysfunction and there are many different solutions, both medical and non-medical, in the form of home remedies.

 

There are different degrees of erectile dysfunction too. Some men can achieve an erection but are unable to maintain it. Some men become erect but not fully erect. Others only have a problem with a new partner, or with a long-time partner. Then on the extreme end of the spectrum there are those who are unable to achieve an erection at all.

 

Behaviour modification is one way to tackle things, if the erectile dysfunction is caused by emotional issues. If it’s caused by a medical condition (and around 70 percent of cases of impotence are) then there are home remedies and therapies that can help you to get back into your sexual stride.

 

Medical conditions can contribute to erectile dysfunction, the most common of these being diabetes, alcoholism, kidney disease, multiple sclerosis, vascular disease, atherosclerosis and neurologic disease. Around half of all men with diabetes have problems with erectile dysfunction, and younger men tend to fall victim to injuries that cause their erectile dysfunction, such as gunshot wounds, car crashes and skiing accidents. Other causes can include hormonal imbalances.

 

Doctors treat erectile dysfunction with oral medications, vacuum devices, locally injected drugs, behaviour modification techniques and even surgically implanted devices.
