Many people have the impression that impotence is a problem that only occurs in old age and that young people have nothing to do with it. However, the reality is becoming more and more apparent – many men in their 20s or even just over 18 years old have quietly suffered from erectile dysfunction. In fact, there are often a variety of reasons behind the occurrence of such phenomena, especially the following 4 aspects, often the source of the problem.
I. Too much pressure and unbalanced psychological state.
The fast pace of life, work competition, academic burden, interpersonal tension, coupled with economic pressure, many young men are like fighting a war every day. Prolonged mental tension, the brain will be in a constant “state of emergency”, the nervous system is difficult to relax.
Male sexual function, especially erectile ability, depends largely on the coordination of the brain and nervous system. If you are in a long- term anxiety, nervousness, fatigue, the brain on the sexual stimulus conduction will be slow, or even a brief “strike” phenomenon, erection will naturally become a problem.
Simply put, the greater the psychological pressure, the worse the sexual performance may be. Instead of blaming yourself, you should adjust your attitude, improve your mood and relax accordingly.
Second, unhealthy lifestyle.
Many young people are used to staying up late, not exercising, and sitting for more than ten hours a day. The impact of such a lifestyle on the body is all- encompassing, especially the blood circulation system is the most damaged. And erection is essentially a blood perfusion process, if the blood flow is not smooth, like water in the pipe no water, natural “hard” up.
In addition, smoking and drinking is also the enemy of erectile function. Nicotine in the cigarette will make the blood vessels constriction hard; drinking, although the short- term may bring the illusion of “relaxation”, but long- term alcohol abuse will interfere with hormone secretion, but also can damage the nerves, the sexual ability is a kind of chronic destruction.
If you are used to using tobacco and alcohol to relieve stress, and rarely exercise, then impotence is likely to quietly find the door.
Third, frequent masturbation or sex life is too dense.
Many people don’t pay much attention to the word “moderation”. Masturbation and sex life is indeed a normal male needs, but the problem is that the frequency and intensity is too high, the penis will be in a state of congestion for a long time, easy to lead to fatigue and even spongy injury.
Once the spongy tissue is repeatedly injured, just like muscle fatigue after overuse, recovery will be slower and slower, and over time, the ability to get an erection will be discounted.
In addition, long- term addiction to masturbation or high- frequency sex can also make you “immune” to stimulation, meaning that you will respond to more and more intense stimulation, resulting in a slowed or diminished sexual response, creating a vicious cycle.
Hormonal disorders or diseases.
The normal functioning of male sexual function cannot be separated from the balance of hormones in the body, especially testosterone, the male hormone. If testosterone secretion is insufficient, not only will libido decrease, but the hardness and duration of erection will also be affected.
There are also chronic diseases that can directly affect sexual function, such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and even the more common prostatitis. These diseases can affect nerve conduction, vascular function, or directly interfere with semen secretion, leading to a decline in sexual function.
Especially prostatitis, will not only bring frequent urination, urinary pain and other problems, but also affect the blood supply of the penis and nerve sensitivity, the erectile ability of the stroke should not be underestimated.
Young people impotence, not can not be cured, but to “treat the root cause”.
For young people, impotence is not a major irreversible disease, but the key is to find the root cause, the right medicine. Do not rely on health products or “prescription”, but from the lifestyle, psychological regulation, health management.
If you find that you often have sexual problems, you may want to try:
- Rearrange your work schedule so you don’t have to stay up late at night – Ensure you get regular exercise every week, even if it’s just a brisk walk or jog.
- Reducing alcohol and tobacco use and staying away from addictive substances – Reducing the frequency of sex to avoid overstimulation – Communicating more, releasing emotional stress, and seeking psychological counseling if needed.
- Get regular medical checkups for underlying conditions that may affect sexual function.
Conclusion: Impotence is not a shame, it’s a sign of good health.
The onset of impotence in young men is often the body’s “wake- up call” to remind you that it is time to change your lifestyle. Instead of avoiding medical treatment, it is better to face it bravely and adapt positively. Sexual health is never just a matter of the physical level, but also a comprehensive reflection of the psychological and lifestyle level. Take care of your physical and mental state, and sexual function will naturally return to the right track.
