Impotence from alcohol
Alcoholism is a serious chronic disease that causes psychological and physical dependence. Narcologists claim that alcoholism, drug addiction and substance abuse are incurable diseases. Persons who have been able to defeat a bad habit are in remission and, if the slightest amount of alcohol enters the body, they can resume taking the harmful drink.
The main addictive component is ethyl alcohol. Neuroparalytic poison has a pronounced negative effect on all structures of the human body, causing the development of a complex form of impotence (complex impotence includes a combination of psychogenic and organic signs).

Men of different ages and social status begin to take alcoholic beverages due to:
- deterioration of mood, the onset of depression, the emergence of a feeling of loneliness and dissatisfaction with life;
- the presence of psychological conflicts, lack of understanding with relatives, friends and colleagues;
- changes in financial situation, loss of job or home.

The consequences of alcoholism
Alcoholism cannot be compatible with a healthy lifestyle and sexual performance. Excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages becomes the cause of weakening of health and decrease in working capacity. As a result, the financial condition deteriorates and moral values are lost. Chronic alcohol abuse causes such dangerous consequences for the body as:
- liver cirrhosis. The described irreversible damage provokes acute liver dysfunction, the development of hepatitis and the onset of death;
- hypoglycemia. A decrease in blood sugar levels is noted as a result of liver damage. As a result, a person who regularly takes alcoholic beverages suffers from chronic headaches and weakness, tremors of the limbs. With a significant decrease in the therapeutic concentration of glucose, a coma may occur;
- digestive disorders. Peptic ulcer of the gastrointestinal tract and erosive gastritis, an increased risk of growth of malignant tumors of the esophagus, mouth and throat. The intake of alcohol, which has a high level of calorie content, leads to the fact that patients refuse to eat well. As a result, the body does not receive enough vitamins and minerals, the metabolism slows down, the secretion of digestive enzymes and male sex hormones decreases;
- hypertension and disruption of the heart muscle. The systematic use of low alcohol or strong alcoholic beverages is the reason for the expansion and increase in fragility of capillaries, a decrease in the elasticity of blood vessels;
- damage to the central nervous system. The condition of chronic alcoholics is often aggravated by neurotic and psychotic changes. Among patients, hallucinatory syndrome is widespread, which occurs during acute intoxication with ethyl alcohol. Uncontrolled intake of alcohol, energy drinks is the cause of lesions of the cerebral cortex, speech, memory and coordination of movements are impaired;
- disorders of the urinary system. Vodka and other alcoholic beverages are diuretics. If a man takes them regularly, there is an acceleration in the production of urine. Control over the urination process is gradually lost.
As a result of a complex negative effect on the body, alcohol leads to a persistent loss of erection and sexual potency. The patient loses the ability to achieve and maintain sexual arousal, does not feel psychological interest in relationships with the opposite sex.
