Influence Of Smoking On Potency

Doctors do not even call smoking an addiction, but a disease of the 21st century, which can lead to quite serious consequences. Does smoking affect potency - definitely yes! Tobacco has a detrimental effect on the physical condition, taking away male power and reducing the quality of intimate relationships between partners.



Influence of cigarettes


The fact that smoking contributes to the development of erectile dysfunction has been scientifically proven. Young people are skeptical about these allegations, relying on the fact that with regular smoking they have no problems with sex. But at the age of 25-35, the male body is protected by a large amount of testosterone, which will decrease with age. Therefore, for a heavy smoker, the likelihood that an erection may be disturbed will increase with each passing year.


A man should be wary if he has:



  • Reduced or no sexual desire;
  • No erection when stimulated;
  • Premature ejaculation or no orgasms at all.

The process of erection is provided by "cooperation" between blood circulation, peripheral and central nervous system. Enhanced inflows of arterial blood (about 7 times higher than usual) at the time of excitation through small blood vessels enter the hollow cavernous bodies of the penis. Then the "childbearing" organ of a man increases in size and becomes elastic enough for a full-fledged sexual intercourse.


The effect of smoking on potency mainly occurs through the blood vessels, since tobacco products are a very powerful vasoconstrictor.



Vascular pathologies


With nicotine addiction, the vessels lose their elasticity, tone and elasticity, become thinner and weaker. In the arteries of the penis, vascular blood flow worsens, therefore, during sexual arousal, proper blood flow does not occur and the erection remains weak or does not occur at all.


Circulatory failure develops gradually, so the degree of influence of smoking on potency in young men is hardly noticeable, but the stronger sex of 40-50 years old very often become "injured" smokers.



Cholesterol


Under the influence of smoking over the years, an excess of cholesterol in the blood accumulates. This does not necessarily indicate that a man is overweight, even the condition of the vessels itself may not reach a critical point, but their gaps will be clogged with atherosclerotic plaques. It turns out that the cavernous bodies of the penis are no longer able to fill with blood in sufficient quantities, and the potency is weakened.



Psychological side of the problem


Any man who fails in bed will be afraid of failing again. The risk of failing again and the fear of shame in front of his other half makes the young man completely put off intimacy until later.


It is advisable to eliminate psychological stress and a number of complexes. In this case, you may need to consult a sexologist and a psychotherapist.



Sperm quality


With nicotine addiction, the sperm of men changes its composition and density: the quality of seminal fluid and spermatozoa deteriorates very much. This factor does not affect the quality of intimate relationships in any way, but when planning a child, it may not play in favor of the future baby.


Considering "smoky" sperm as a source of genetic information, it can contribute to various defects and abnormalities in the development of the newborn.



Risk of lung cancer


Carcinogens contained in tobacco smoke contribute to the development of malignant tumors of the respiratory tract. Accordingly, most smokers have problems with breathing and shortness of breath, and this becomes a serious obstacle to a good intimate life.



Composition of cigarettes


Most smokers believe that only nicotine is dangerous in tobacco products. However, in addition to it, each cigarette contains about 400 chemical impurities and compounds, exactly half of which are a real poison for the body.


Only 10-15% percent of a cigarette consists of tobacco, the rest is the same substances that affect male potency:



  • Nicotine is a soft drug, it affects the functioning of the male penis almost directly. Also, when it enters the body, the respiratory, cardiovascular, urinary and nervous systems suffer.
  • Lead and cadmium are heavy metals, their excess in the body can lead to impaired kidney function, leaching of calcium from bone tissues and fragility blood vessels that will not allow you to relax with sexual stimulation.
  • Methane provokes intoxication of the body. With a short smoking experience, a person will not see adverse reactions, but poisonous gas tends to accumulate in the body. A large dose of it weakens the potency, and the desire to have sex completely disappears.
  • Phenol and benzene are carcinogens, their effect on the body can provoke the development of various diseases, including bronchitis, leukemia, prostatitis and erectile dysfunction.
  • Acetaldehyde, carbon monoxide, isoprene in a complex effect worsen the condition of all blood vessels, including those that should provide a full blood supply to the penis.
  • Radioactive substances, nitrobenzene, formaldehyde, arsenic are also those substances that once again prove that smoking and potency are interconnected .

The so-called "light" cigarettes will not save you from harmful substances either. They have the same composition as conventional tobacco products, the difference is only in the amount of toxic chemical components. Therefore, the harmful effects of cigarettes on the entire body and male potency in particular is just a matter of time.


If you give up nicotine addiction, after six months the potency will noticeably improve and your sex life will become 2 times more active.


Smoking or not is everyone's choice. But the lack of desire, problems with fertility, weak potency - a small part of the consequences of nicotine addiction, not to mention the pathological effect on the entire body.
