Organic impotence

Under organic impotence, urologists mean a form of sexual disorder that was caused by serious functional abnormalities in the work of internal organs or congenital anomalies.

This type of impotence, as a rule, develops in stages, causing periodic and then permanent sexual disorders. Among the most common causes of organic impotence, doctors call the following diseases.

Vascular Lesions

Circulatory failure

The patient's life history usually includes:

• serious injuries of the penis
• diabetes mellitus
• congenital anomalies of the vessels of the penis
• hypertension
• nicotine addiction< / li>

The clinical picture in patients with arteriogenic disorder is characterized by a deterioration in erectile ability due to insufficient blood supply to the male genital organ. With the development of severe forms of vascular pathology and the absence of timely treatment, irreversible changes in the corpora cavernosa occur, leading to incurable impotence and other dangerous consequences.

Ectopic drainage

Pathological discharge of blood from the groin area occurs due to a significant expansion of the venous wall. A change in the size of the saphenous cavernous or leg veins leads to a rapid decrease in erection and the impossibility of full intercourse. The disorder may be accompanied by functional insufficiency of the cavernous erectile tissue, which is gradually destroyed under the influence of nicotine, deficiency of nephrotransmitters or ultrastructural changes.

Anatomical disorders

Structural lesions in the penis can be congenital or acquired. Also, among the common causes of acquired structural pathologies, doctors call unsuccessful operations and injuries in the perineal region. The most severe cases of organic impotence caused by anatomical abnormalities can only be cured by surgery. Specialists of modern medicine have developed a technique for falloprosthetics, which allows to fully restore the erectile abilities of men.

Hormonal erectile dysfunction

Decreased libido may be associated with slowed production of the male sex hormone. If a reduced amount of testosterone is secreted in the ovaries, then the patient notes:

• loss of sexual desire
• decreased interest in sexual relations with the opposite sex
• impairment of memory and attention
• increased irritability and anxiety
• violation of the veno-occlusive mechanism
• dystrophy of smooth muscle cells
• decrease in strength and endurance
• accelerated formation of fatty deposits in the waist and hips

Diseases of the glans penis




Pathology leads to damage to the peripheral receptors of the afferent pathways, most of which are located in the head of the penis. This leads to disruption of the ejaculation process and a gradual decrease in potency. Hyperesthesia, or pathological sensitization, often leads to ejaculation before the onset of intimacy. As a result, a man may suffer from infertility. Dysfunction of peripheral receptors can cause cessation of erection without ejection of seminal material. Among the negative factors provoking the onset of hyperesthesia, andrologists note:




• congenital disorders of sensitivity
• inflammatory processes in the genitourinary organs
• traumatic injuries of the spine
• organic diseases of the spinal cord



Diseases of the prostate




Symptoms of impotence occur in patients of reproductive age due to the onset of chronic prostatitis. Patients begin to complain of a decrease in libido a few months after the onset of the disease. Chronic inflammation of the prostate gland after infection causes discomfort and pain during intimacy. The pain syndrome increases gradually and in the early stages of the disease manifests itself sporadically. That is why men often ignore this unwanted symptom by postponing a visit to the doctor. With prolonged inflammation of the prostate in patients, there is an accelerated ejaculation, which occurs not only at the end of intercourse, but also at the time of defecation or urination. These pathological phenomena entail a decrease in the potency and strength of orgasm.
