Today it is considered obsolete and officially excluded from the general medical register of diseases. There are many reasons that lead to the loss of masculine strength, but to date, doctors have not identified the main one. It is believed that erectile dysfunction can be organic, psychological and mixed in origin.
Now the fact that the loss of male health is associated with age has been completely refuted. As practice shows, smoking, drinking alcohol and a sedentary lifestyle with motionless work brings much more harm to an erection. In addition, somatic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, atherosclerosis, hormonal disorders and injuries of the pelvic organs have a bad effect on the genitourinary system.
Many more patients suffer from so-called psychological or psychogenic dysfunction. As you might guess from the name, it is associated with the influence of certain traumatic factors on a person's consciousness. As a rule, psychogenic dysfunction is the lot of young people. According to recent sociological studies, the most common psychological trauma leading to disorders of the function of the reproductive apparatus is a bad first sexual experience, which causes psychological stress.
As a rule, the effect of summation is observed closer to old age, although there is no direct connection between the year of birth and the reproductive system. Quite often, cases are described when men without burdened somatic pathologies remain sexually active for up to 80 years. Probably, there is no need to talk about the symptoms, since there is only one.
DetailAlthough the impossibility of performing sexual intercourse does not yet indicate the need for immediate medical attention. If such an excess took place, first of all, it is necessary to analyze the past day and concentrate on those facts that may distract from the direct fulfillment of marital duty. In the event that the situation reoccurs, it is best to see a doctor.
DetailErectile dysfunction is not a rare problem today, therefore a lot of methods have been developed to diagnose it. The first step is to mention ultrasound. It will help assess the state of blood flow in the cavernous bodies of the penis and indicate the reserves of its functional readiness. A special test with the introduction of a prostaglandin will lead to an erection of the penis. This is necessary in order to assess the blood flow of the penis in active and non-erect states.
DetailIt should be noted that the deterioration of blood flow is far from the only problem of impaired sexual function. It often happens that the problem lies in the nervous apparatus of the organ. Therefore, it is very important to test the innervation of the penis. This simple manipulation can immediately indicate the underlying cause of the disease. The test is carried out as follows: the doctor presses on the glans penis and observes or palpates the contraction of the anal sphincter. Normally, there should be a sharp and rapid contraction of the anal sphincter to mechanical irritation of the glans penis. If a slowing reflex is determined, other tests are carried out aimed directly at elucidating the function of the nerve.
