Stress factor for developing ED

Stress in our modern lives is a common thing. From a biological point of view, stress can be a neutral, negative, or positive experience.

Negative stress can demonstrate a variety of emotional, behavioral, and physical symptoms. Common physical symptoms include: sleep disturbances, muscle tension, muscle aches, gastrointestinal disturbances, fatigue and sexual problems. Emotional and behavioral symptoms are nervousness, overeating, mood changes, sexual performance anxiety, and depression.

People under stress tend to be addicted to something: food, cigarette smoking, abuse of alcohol and drugs. These unhealthy habits increase the severity of symptoms associated with stress and other conditions that stress provokes.

Stress affects people of all ages. The severity of stress is highly dependent on physical health, the state of relationships, expectations of us, if there is any support from our family, friends or partners, and other events. Males are vulnerable to stress in some periods of their lives, especially stressful situations for men are those when they cannot perform well in bed.

It is proved that stress can affect any organ system and provoke skin rashes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, certain gastrointestinal diseases, and problems with erections.

Constant stress has a very negative impact on our physical and mental health. Stress is a natural mechanism but if stress becomes negative and dangerous for people’s health, it should be treated. If you cannot cope with stress by yourself, ask psychotherapist for help. This helps you to understand the “nature” of your stress and overcome it.

Diabetes and impotence

Diabetes mellitus is rather common disease for people older than 40 years. The disease has a negative impact on all organs and systems, besides it causes a decrease in potency.

If you have the following conditions, you may be suffering from undiagnosed diabetes:

  • If you are overweight.
  • If you have a constant thirst or hunger.
  • If your pressure is high.
  • If your sight gets worse.

The earlier the diagnosis and treatment is started, the easier it is to avoid complications.

Diabetes affects many organs and nerve system, including tiny blood vessels within genital sphere. Often, it happens so that a man notices a decrease in his sexual abilities first, seeks medical attention and only after that diabetes is diagnosed.  Diabetes in the early stages may cause no symptoms.
Diabetes causes different organs in such a way that they cannot fully perform their functions.
The nervous system beside other functions answers for normal erections and the tone of the urinary tract. When nervous system is affected by diabetes, neuropathy appears.  Neuropathy leads to erectile dysfunction, male’s inability to have and sustain erections.

High blood sugar levels reduce the level of testosterone and this leads to a decrease of libido (sex drive) and erectile dysfunction.

The vessels become narrow and rigid. So the blood supply of pelvic organs and penis suffers arousal and erections become weaker.

Diabetes is a serious disease, but you may prevent development of complications and stop the decline in potency and maintain overall health.  Consult your doctor regularly and follow all his prescriptions. Get rid of unhealthy habits (smoking, alcohol), try to move actively, walk on the open air, to reduce the weight, keep a diet, and avoid stress. Take your medication for diabetes treatment regularly to avoid fluctuations glucose level in blood. With these simple changes in your lifestyle you will improve the potency and quality of sexual life.

Smoking and Overweight Affect Frequency of Sex

Recent study of sexually active men and women has demonstrated that for both men and women, being physically passive (having little or no physical activity everyday) was associated with a higher risk of being sexually passive.

Males and females who reported getting no exercise regularly said they had not had sex with a partner in the last month  than men and women reporting at least light physical activity.

Smoking was associated with the increasing  risk of difficulties in sex for women.  Among other potentially dangerous factors are having a body mass index (BMI) over 30 or a waist size over 34 inches.

Having a very large waist size, over 40 inches for males was also associated with an increasing risk of having sexual problems.

Both being underweight or obese for men with a body mass index (BMI) under 20 or over 30, increased the chances of developing erectile dysfunction.

Former smokers and smokers were practically twice likely to have ED than men who had never tried to smoke.

These lifestyle factors may cause sexual problems especially in people over 40 years of old.  Giving up smoking and losing extra weight, improving general health can help to improve sexual health.

Feelings that characterize your relationship:

Are you happy with your partner?

Is your partner happy with you?

How satisfied are you with your sex life? Is your partner satisfied with your sex life as well?

What is your relationship based on? (Sex, friendship, trust, emotions, family commitments).

How often do you communicate your feelings about all aspects of your relationship with your partner? Does he/she understand you?

Sex life should satisfy both partners, there should be no victims. Sexual life is an integral part of a healthy relationship.

Healthy Relationships and Impotence Problem

When a person takes ED therapy after several years of impotence he thinks that everything will go well. Still an effective drug which restores erectile function does not guarantee that a relationship will be also restored psychologically or emotionally.

The improvement of erectile function changes the sexual relationships of two people greatly, especially if a male has been suffering from ED for a long time. A quick change in male sexual function is a great thing to make better or completely destroy relationships of a couple.

ED therapies can help overcome physiological problems, but psychological are still not solved. Both partners should resolve their relationship issues.

Stress and anxiety can cause a great stress for both partners and it’s often a time when a couple needs to evaluate the health of their relationship.
