Removal of BPH and potency: connection and methods of correction

Benign prostatic hyperplasia means tissue growth in an organ. It happens that conservative treatment does not work, as a result of which doctors recommend removal of the prostate. Potency after such an intervention may decrease. However, this reaction is reversible with proper and complex treatment.

The relationship between prostate and potency

Adenoma of the prostate does not directly affect sexual viability, however, an indirect negative effect takes place in the following directions:

• Symptoms of the disease interfere with sexual intercourse, reduce attraction at the emotional level;
• The proliferation of tissues affects the nearest organs;
• The psychological state is changing.

The first point includes the following manifestations:

• Disorder of urine output, constant urge to pass urine, especially at night;
• Pain in the back, abdomen, groin;
• General weakness and fever;
• Soreness at the moment of orgasm and during frictions.

The impact on nearby organs is expressed in:

• Stagnation of blood and lymph;
• Inflammatory processes;
• Intoxication due to incomplete emptying of the bladder;
• Decreased secretion production;
• Pinching and pinching.

Deterioration of the emotional background leads to psychogenic dysfunction. Confidence in mandatory violations naturally leads to their occurrence. Has a negative impact on sexual performance:

• Doubts about your own strength;
• The frolicking fear of not being able to achieve an erection;
• Soreness in the genitals resulting from autosuggestion;
• Constant fatigue and lack of sleep.

A neglected prostate adenoma is often surgically removed, which aggravates the patient's condition, believing that after the intervention, intimate life should end.

Do all men fail after surgery?

Surgery and removal of an organ are indicated in the following cases:

• Stage 1 or 2 oncological pathologies without metastases;
• Advanced prostate cancer. Shown is a radical prostatectomy with removal of lymph nodes;
• Adenoma of the gland. Surgery is required in the absence of expected results from medication and physiotherapy.

In most cases, the methods of surgery used in modern medicine allow during the operation to preserve the nerves that provide physiological arousal. Reduced potency after removal of the prostate is recorded, provided there is a violation before surgery. Pathology is amenable to correction.

An exception is extremely advanced cases when the removal of the nerve bundle is required. In this case, bringing erectile function back to normal provides only prosthetics.

How to restore potency after removal of prostate adenoma?

It is important to know that recovery of sexual function can take from 6 months to 2 years. Basic conditions for the normalization of potency:

• Strict adherence to medical recommendations regarding daytime regimen;
• Preservation of nerve nodes - if they are damaged, restoration of sexual strength is possible only after a second operation to treat impotence;
• Abstinence for a month;
• Regular sex after allowing intercourse;
• Partner support.

Medicines

For full recovery after surgery, antibiotics are shown to help prevent infection and inflammation of wounds.

To improve potency, PDE type 5 inhibitors are usually recommended, which provide a stable erection due to the expansion of arterial lumens and narrowing of the veins. This factor ensures that the corpora cavernosa is filled with blood, after which an erect state occurs, lasting from 4 to 12 hours.

If, 2 months after the operation, the function has not recovered, and the intake of drugs did not give a result, then intracavernous injections into the genitals are practiced, stabilizing the ability to arousal for some time after the injection.

Natural Supplements

Treatment with organic supplements also provides restoration of potency after removal of the prostate. You should choose naturopathic drugs that have a positive effect on hormones, blood circulation and immune defense.

Doctors recommend resorting to:

• Drops Vector of Solomon, Alfa Man, Mega Men;
• Urethroactive Powders, Peruvian Maca;
• MegaTon 2080 tablets;
• Capsules Pantosagan, AFROSTRONG, Eroxin.

In addition, supplements based on an alkaloid derived from the bark of the yohimbe tree are effective.They help:

• Improve the psychological state;
• Accelerate blood circulation and metabolism;
• Strengthen the body as a whole.

Traditional methods

Folk methods are aids to accelerate recovery and enhance the effect of drugs and supplements.

After consulting a urologist, you can use the following home remedies:

• Dried fruits infused with red wine. Recommended to take 40 drops a day;
• Tincture of eleutherococcus or galangal on alcohol. The method of consumption is similar to that of a wine drug;
• St. John's wort decoction. The daily rate is 1.5 cups;
• Broth of aspen bark. You need to take about 150 ml per day.

Tips

Taking medications, decoctions, supplements will not be enough if you do not make significant adjustments to your daily routine. The main factors that help in the rehabilitation process:

• Loads;
• Drinking regime;
• Diet;
• Control of intestinal motility.

At first, a complete ban is imposed on any physical exercise, driving and carrying weights. Walks are shown to help prevent congestion.

Later, it is necessary to gradually include small loads in everyday life. The first stage is physiotherapy exercises, which helps to restore local metabolism, bring muscles into tone, and improve immune defense.

Normalization of urine output also requires a certain load on the sphincter muscles. The Kegel technique helps to strengthen the muscles for a stable erection.

Drinking regimen after prostatectomy also requires attention. The first days of urine excretion is accompanied by discomfort, but the reduction in water consumption oxidizes urine, which increases the pain. The rate of clean liquid is 1.5-2 liters. This amount contributes to:

• Normal blood viscosity;
• Stimulation of metabolism;
• Prevention of blood clots.

The therapeutic diet involves the complete elimination of "harmful" foods, spices and food, that is, everything that causes fermentation reactions. List of prohibited foods:

• Alcoholic drinks;
• Soda;
• Coffee;
• Semi-finished products with additives;
• Sour and spicy;
• Fatty, pickles, fried.

The principles of proper nutrition after surgery:

• Dishes are steamed or boiled;
• Number of meals - 5-6 and in small portions;
• At the heart of the diet: cereals, lean meat, river fish, nuts, vegetables and fruits;
• Healthy drinks: juices, homemade fruit drinks and compotes. You can add cinnamon or vanilla.

Constipation during the healing of stitches leads to the opening of wounds, therefore it is important to ensure a bowel movement without stress. For this, drugs are indicated, as well as certain foods that soften stools and increase intestinal motility.
