[quote]When
a man has trouble getting or keeping an Attention, he is said to have
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) which is a common type of male sexual
dysfunction. ED can be a total inability to achieve an Attention, an
inconsistent ability to do so, or a tendency to sustain only brief
erections. Although ED becomes more common as a man gets older, it’s
important to stress that it’s not a natural part of aging. You may have
trouble speaking about sex, but if you have ED, you should tell your
doctor, because ED can be a sign of health problems.

getting or keeping an Attention are known to be signs of underlying
health conditions that need treatment and a risk factor for perhaps a
heart disease later on. It may mean your blood vessels are clogged. It
may mean you have nerve damage from diabetes. So if you don’t see
your doctor, these problems will go untreated. Having Attention trouble
from time to time isn’t necessarily a cause for concern. If erectile
dysfunction is an ongoing issue, however, it can cause stress, affect a
man’s self-confidence and contribute to relationship problems.
If
you’re concerned about erectile dysfunction, talk to your doctor —even
if you’re embarrassed. Sometimes, treating the underlying condition is
enough to reverse erectile dysfunction. In other cases, medications or
other direct treatments might be needed. Here are the most common causes
of ED.
Depression
The brain is an often-overlooked
erogenous zone. Sexual excitement starts in the head and works its way
down. Depression can dampens desire and can lead to erectile
dysfunction. Ironically, many of the drugs used to treat depression can
also suppress sex drive and make it harder to get an Attention, and they
can cause a delay in orgasm.
Alcohol
Having a few drinks
to get in the mood could be okay, but overindulging could make it harder
to start or even finish the act. Heavy alcohol use can interfere with
erections, but the effects are usually temporary. Moderate drinking—one
or two drinks a day—might have health benefits like reducing heart
disease risks. Those risks are similar to erectile dysfunction risks.
Medications
The
contents of the medicine cabinet could affect performance in the
bedroom. A long list of common drugs can cause ED, including certain
blood pressure drugs, pain medications, and antidepressants. Street
drugs like amphetamines, cocaine, and marijuana can cause sexual
problems in men, too.
Stress
It’s not easy to get in the
mood when overwhelmed by responsibilities at work and home. Stress can
take its toll on many different parts of the body, including the nether
region. Dealing with stress by making lifestyle changes that promote
well-being and relaxation, such as exercising regularly, getting enough
sleep, and seeking professional help when appropriate, really helps.
Anger
Anger
can make the blood rush to your face, but not to the one place you need
it when you want to have sex. It’s not easy to feel romantic when
you’re raging, whether your anger is directed at your partner or not.
Unexpressed anger or improperly expressed anger can contribute to
performance problems in the bedroom.
Anxiety
Worrying that
you won’t be able to perform in the bedroom can make it harder for you
to do just that. Anxiety from other parts of life can also spill over
into the bedroom. All that worry can make you fear and avoid intimacy,
which can spiral into a vicious cycle that puts a big strain on your sex
life— and relationship.
Middle-aged spread
Carrying extra
kilos can impact sexual performance, and not just by lowering
self-esteem. Obese men have lower levels of the male hormone
testosterone, which is important for sexual desire and producing an
Attention. Being overweight is also linked to high blood pressure and
hardening of the arteries, which can reduce blood flow to the male sex
organ.
Self-image
When you don’t like what you see in the
mirror, it’s easy to assume your partner isn’t going to like the view,
either. A negative self-image can elicit worry not only about how you
look, but also how well you’re going to perform in bed. That performance
anxiety can make you too anxious to even attempt sex.
Low libido
Low
libido isn’t the same as erectile dysfunction, but a lot of the same
factors that stifle an Attention can also dampen your interest in sex.
Low self-esteem, stress, anxiety, and certain medications can all reduce
your sex drive. When all those worries are tied up with making love,
your interest in sex can take a nosedive.
General health
Many
different health conditions can affect the nerves, muscles, or blood
flow that is needed to have an Attention. Diabetes, high blood pressure,
hardening of the arteries, spinal cord injuries, and multiple sclerosis
can contribute to ED. Surgery to treat prostate or bladder problems can
also affect the nerves and blood vessels that control an Attention.
Solving ED problems
It
can be embarrassing to talk to your doctor about your sex life, but
it’s the best way to get treated and get back to being intimate with
your partner. The doctor can pinpoint the source of the problem and may
recommend lifestyle interventions like quitting smoking or losing
weight. Other treatment options are ED drugs, hormone treatments, a
suction device that helps create an Attention, or counselling.
