Does fatigue and stress affect the potency and erection of men?

Representatives of the stronger sex, experiencing negative emotions and overexertion, are often worried about problems in bed. The negative effect of stress on a man's potency is due to factors caused by mental overload and fatigue.

How does fatigue affect potency and erection?

To begin with, different people perceive fatigue differently. Someone finds it difficult to work for a couple of hours at a computer without a break for half an hour's rest, and someone notes weakness only after a day of hard physical labor. Each organism is individual and can react differently to stress. This should be taken into account when assessing the degree of workload.

Any activity that exceeds the body's ability to adapt, causes characteristic sensations (for both men and women), mainly manifested by the following symptoms:

• Feeling overwhelmed.
• Sleepiness.
• Emotional exhaustion.
• Aching pain throughout the body.
• Decreased libido and weakening of potency.

It is very important to understand that we are talking about constant overload, leading to the development of serious changes in the body. The short-term effect of fatigue on potency may even be beneficial, since at this moment cyclical changes occur in the body, represented by the narrowing and expansion of all blood vessels. Episodes of hard work, but with appropriate subsequent rest, are beneficial for the man, as they gradually increase his threshold of endurance.

It is quite another matter when a representative of the stronger sex is under the influence of fatigue permanently. This condition will definitely negatively affect the erection. In fact, this is a kind of stress for the body.

Types of stressful situations

In the process of practice, doctors often use such a concept as chronic fatigue syndrome. Many doctors use it to explain the occurrence of erectile dysfunction in men. Since the complete exhaustion of the body is stressful for it, it is worth familiarizing yourself with the types of stressful situations.

Scientists distinguish two types:

In both cases, a number of metabolic changes occur in the body that directly affect the sexual activity of the stronger sex.

Why a bad erection due to severe stress:

• Release of corticosteroid hormones (mainly adrenaline). Promotes the rapid adaptation of all organs and systems to extreme situations. However, an excess of these biological substances inhibits the activity of testosterone, as a result of which libido and potency decrease.
• Vascular spasm. Accelerates blood flow for better body response. In isolated cases, problems do not arise. But, when a man is under such an influence, the supply of blood to the penis is constantly disrupted, which leads to a weakening of erection.
• Blood pressure fluctuations. Another factor that, with permanent exposure to a person, leads to a deterioration in his ability to have sex.

Thus, the effect of stress on a man's potency is obvious. This kind of state does not bring anything good. Moreover, if such failures are constantly observed, sooner or later problems with erection will acquire an organic character and it will become much more difficult to deal with impotence. That is why, if you or your loved one (for example, a husband) have the initial symptoms of impotence, you should not waste time, you need to see a doctor as soon as possible!

How to restore potency after stress?

It has been statistically proven that many men do not want to discuss their problems in bed with doctors or friends. It is easier for them to take pathology for granted than to seek treatment. This is one of the reasons for the growth of infertility and impotence.

This approach to one's own health is extremely irrational. Since fatigue, stress and potency are interrelated concepts, and many men are used to working hard and being exhausted, in order to avoid problems with potency and erection, it is enough to revise the activity schedule and try not to pay attention to negative life moments.

In addition to this, you can try the following methods for overcoming problems with potency due to experiencing stress:

• Spend more time outdoors.
• Going to the gym (gymnastics, exercise will do all the good).
• Use a variety of natural biostimulants (vitamins, ginseng).
• Take an auto-training course.

One way or another, but chronic fatigue negatively affects potency, so draw conclusions, dear men!
