Influence of pressure on potency
Blood pressure indicators are in direct relationship with a man's sexual ability. Doctors confirm that more than 40% of patients suffering from high or low blood pressure have problems in the intimate sphere. Failure to receive timely medical care in case of hypotension or hypertension can cause acute disturbance of the cerebral or cardiac circulation during intercourse, as a result of which libido is significantly weakened and the sexual activity of a man decreases.
How high blood pressure affects potency
The nervous and cardiovascular systems are involved in the mechanism of formation and maintenance of a healthy erection. The development of sexual arousal entails an increase in blood circulation in the genitals and a suspension of venous outflow. For sufficient blood flow to the pelvic organs, a mediator is released, which helps to relax the smooth muscles of the vascular walls in the groin.
An increase in blood pressure reduces the elasticity of the genital arteries. As a result, the arterial ducts cannot expand to the size necessary for accelerated blood circulation. The vessels are reduced, the process of the onset of an erection slows down. A man has a desire to have sexual intercourse, but the penis enlarges partially or does not acquire a sufficient level of rigidity to penetrate the vagina. If the patient manages to bring the penis into an erect state, then during intimacy he may feel a sharp deterioration in well-being.
High risk of complications
If a man ignores the high blood pressure and continues to stimulate an erection, then the likelihood of developing serious complications increases. Since the onset of sexual arousal and sexual intercourse increases the stressful effect on the body, the patient may suffer from:
- myocardial infarction
- ischemic stroke
- exacerbation of kidney pathologies
- angina attack
- pulmonary edema
< li>acute heart failure - encephalopathy
Who suffers from high blood pressure
The greatest risk of a hypertensive crisis is noted in men of the older age group (over 45 years old), who:
- abuse food with excess salt, are overweight
- are often exposed to traumatic factors, excessive physical exertion
- abuse alcoholic beverages or have nicotine addiction
How to avoid a hypertensive crisis
To neutralize the negative effects of hypertension on potency, men are advised:
- control the level of physical activity, prevent overstrain and accumulation of fatigue
- give up bad habits, stop smoking and drinking alcohol
- use antihypertensive drugs recommended by the doctor
- change your diet, adhere to the principles of a healthy and balanced diet, reduce the amount of unhealthy fats, salt and sugar consumed, introduce more fresh vegetables, herbs and fruits into the diet
How low blood pressure affects potency
A significant drop in blood pressure causes lethargy, weakness and lethargy. As a result of hypotension, blood flow slows down and oxygen supply to the brain is disrupted. The man feels dizziness and an acute headache, his working capacity decreases and the desire to have sexual intercourse is lost. In a state of severe hypotension, involuntary urination, seizures, and fainting are often observed. Reduced pressure does not allow the development of a full-fledged erection due to insufficient arterial blood flow to the groin area. The cavernous bodies of the penis do not receive the required volume of blood and the penis cannot accept an excited state.
Complications of hypotension
Failure to provide medical care with reduced pressure threatens the onset:
- injuries due to sudden dizziness and fainting
- ischemic stroke
- CNS damage
Who suffers from low blood pressure
The risk of acute hypotension increases if the man:
- has diseases that cause an insufficient supply of oxygen to the brain
- works in an area that requires increased mental stress
- is busy at work with harmful working conditions (hanging humidity or temperature)< / li>
- is experiencing systematic physical exertion
- has pathologies of the central nervous system and heart, respiratory organs and adrenal glands
How to avoid hypotension
The following measures should be taken to normalize blood pressure:
