Impaired potency functioning as a pathological symptom
Potency is a property of a man's body, which indicates that he is ready for sexual intercourse. Psychologically, potency belongs to the category of male sexuality.
Potency determines a man's readiness for sexual intercourse, its characteristics include:
- the degree of tension in the penis;
- the rate of onset of an erectile state;
- how long will the sexual intercourse last;
- and the speed of ejaculation.
For every man, sexual relations have a special meaning in everyday life, and are reflected in their mental state. Poor potency and prolonged absence of sexual intercourse can negatively affect the emotional background. Men become withdrawn in themselves, general working capacity decreases and a tendency to depressive disorders appears. Such men are capable of further fertilization, but sexual dissatisfaction with a partner in the future leads to divorce or family problems.
A few years ago, erectile dysfunction suffered from men aged about 55-65 years, but statistics show that today the violation of potency has largely rejuvenated. Young men and boys began to turn to sex therapists all over the world, and the reasons for each are very diverse.
What are the reasons for erectile dysfunction?
Often, a change in potency and its weakness among young people occurs as a result of physiological processes, for example, excessive emotional shock. Failures during sexual intercourse occurred only 1-2 times, this does not mean that the alarm should be sounded, it can only be a temporary phenomenon. With repeated violation of potency, men of any age, as a preventive measure, should seek qualified help from a sex therapist. Men who face similar problems often wonder why it's worth it and what could have provoked such a condition and what to do to quickly fix it.
There are three main groups of reasons leading to a sharp decrease in sexual performance in young and middle-aged men:
Pathogenetic features of sexual dysfunction
Poor potency at a young age can develop for many reasons, but the main pathogenetic moment is considered to be violations in the circulatory system. Before the onset of physiological intercourse, the blood flow to the pelvic cavity increases several times, and the arteries of the penis begin to intensively overflow with blood. During intercourse, the venous outflow of blood is almost completely blocked, which explains the temporary erect state of the penis.
Thus, the following conclusions should be drawn that a violation of potency can develop due to insufficient blood filling of the arterial vessels of the penis or excessively increased blood outflow through the venous vessels. Various diseases can cause such pathological processes, which is why, to solve such a problem, you need to contact a qualified specialist.
Diseases that provoke the development of changes in men's sexual ability include:
- insulin dependent, diabetes mellitus;
- infectious diseases provoking inflammatory processes in the pelvic area;
- disorders of general and local hemodynamics;
- violation of the synthesis of hormones by the endocrine glands;
- oncological diseases.
The first symptoms that appear when potency changes
The first and most significant symptom is considered to be the complete absence of erectile function. All men need to pay attention to this happening to them. If the absence of an erection is observed only before sexual sensations, then this may mean that the problem is associated with psychological disorders. But if erectile properties do not appear even in the morning, then impotence, which requires medical intervention, may become the cause.
Weak induration of the penis can occur against a background of hormonal disorders or metabolic disorders in the body. Such conditions also require medical attention.
Another and not a little important symptomatic sign of changes in the properties of potency is considered to be a rapid eruption of seminal fluid, followed by weakening of the penis. In most cases, this symptom indicates the presence of organic pathology in the body of a man.
Ways to correct sexual function
Treatment of impotence in men involves the elimination of the pathogenic etiological factor.In case of emotional disorders, patients are advised to regularly attend consultations with a psychotherapist and sex therapist, play sports and avoid excessive emotional upheaval.
Disorders of local blood circulation are regulated by drugs that are designed to restore local blood circulation, and drugs to normalize vascular tone.
Another quite effective treatment method is penile massage, this will improve the local blood supply system
The massage can be carried out independently at home, as well as together with your partner, if desired.
Many men face a similar problem due to being overweight. To eliminate the adverse effects, patients are advised to normalize their exercise regimen and balance their daily diet.
Among all men suffering from a similar problem, there are those for whom conservative therapy is not suitable for treating an ailment, and they need surgical interventions. To prevent the occurrence of such consequences, you should promptly seek help from qualified sex therapists.
