Nervous impotence


Nervous Impotence

The pathological condition develops due to the pronounced inhibitory effect of the cerebral cortex. The suspension of the processes of sexual arousal due to the suppression of the activity of the spinal centers of erection is often due to psychological reasons.



Decreased libido


This form of cortical impotence is associated with an insufficient degree of sexual excitability. The severity of an intimate disorder depends on the age and state of health of the male body and can vary from imperceptible fluctuations in potency to complete insensitivity to sexual stimulation.



Signs of potency impairment


Clinical symptoms of sexual dysfunction manifest themselves in different ways and depend on the individual characteristics of the patient's body. Depression can be a major cause of intimate problems or arise from a number of sexual failures. Typically, men suffering from certain psychogenic disorders report:



  • apathy, physical weakness
  • decreased intellectual activity
  • rapid fatigue
  • self-doubt


Erectile dysfunction


Slow development of sexual arousal or defective erection occurs due to inhibition of certain brain centers. Thus, a man loses the ability to perform a full sexual intercourse if he wants to enter into intimacy. Areas of the brain responsible for the development of an adequate and spontaneous erection are often depressed only during the daytime. With a decrease in the brain's control over the work of the reproductive system at night, patients acquire the ability to experience an unintended erection.



Prerequisites for a decrease in the strength of an erection


In fact, the peripheral reproductive apparatus and genital centers function without pathologies. A decrease in erectile ability is a consequence of psychological circumstances, for example:



  • constant alertness to erections
  • criticism or misbehavior on the part of a sexual partner
  • family quarrels and work conflicts
  • memories of failed sex
  • increased fixation of attention on the genitals


Ejaculation disorder


Cortical impotence can cause suppression or uncontrolled ejaculation. At the same time, indicators of libido and erectile ability remain at a normal level.



Lack of ejaculation


Cortical aspermatism manifests itself regardless of the quality and duration of intimacy. In some cases, orgasm and ejaculation does not occur only during sexual relations with a specific partner. If a man experiences sexual arousal in a dream, then ejaculation occurs without pathologies. This is due to a decrease in the influence of the psyche on the ejaculatory center in a sleepy state. When awake, problems associated with loss or lack of control over ejaculation reappear.



Prerequisites for the development of pathology of the reproductive system


Typical causes of impaired ejaculation are phobias that occur in childhood and adolescence. A young man with a previous unsuccessful sexual experience suffers for a long period from unfounded fears and obsessive-waiting syndrome, fear of failure, the possibility of unwanted fertilization or contracting sexually transmitted infections.



Early ejaculation


This type of sexual impotence involves the ejection of semen before the actual introduction of the penis into the vagina. Minor sexual stimulation can cause ejaculation. Ejaculation occurs with a flaccid penis, when the degree of rigidity of the penis is insufficient for full sexual intercourse. Premature ejaculation is the result of excessive stimulating influence on the part of the nerve centers. A pathological increase in the stimulating effect entails a short-term erection and rapid ejaculation. This form of sexual dysfunction is associated with a weakening of the inhibitory process and the predominance of reflex excitement.



Prerequisites for the development of premature ejaculation


The primary increase in cortical sexual excitability is often associated with a long break in sexual activity. The degree of excitability is determined by the individual characteristics of the organism, the conditions of upbringing and social life. Often, increased excitability occurs after epidemic encephalitis that develops in adolescence. Premature ejaculation occurs in congenital, acquired dementia and other psychopathic conditions.
