The sexual impotency a.k.a. erectile dysfunction, occurs when an individual
has difficulty in keeping or reaching constant penial erection or hardon, so
sufficient for vaginal penetration. Although considered decades ago as natural
consequence of the ageing-process in men, nowadays it's known that it can affect
all ages' sexuality. Meaning that it affects young men, middle-aged and
elderly.
The erectile dysfunction of the sexual kind comes associated to organic
and psychological causes.
In terms of sexuality, there can be found a combination of both. Among
organic causes are alterations in hormonal level, neurological, blood serum-related,
and vascular-like, apart from disease such as anemia, diabetes, increased cholesterol,
triglycerides amongst others.
Anxiety, depression, affective disorders, amongst others enlists the psychological
causes that may be attributed as origins so much so as aggravation of its initial
symptoms.
Other external factors that too can be linked such as alcohol abuse, smoking,
recreational drugs, medicine usage, pollution and chemical agents.
Available treatments are innumerous. Perhaps, there could be some hormonal
treatment or anything likely to fix general health concerns detected by tests.
Yet, there can be via oral or injectable- vessel-active drugs for self-injection
in cases of specific treatments of erection-induction. Further, resources of
surgical penial prosthesis.
To the best of my knowledge, seeking a field specialist renders it substantive.
In such cases, I strongly recommend that the patient seek out aid of an urologist,
if specialized in andrology, even better. This professional should be able to
diagnose it accurately. He/she would know, after listening carefully, which
laboratorial exams should be undergone, on top of thorough physical tests. And
therefore, coming to conclusions after detailed scrutiny even counseling what
course of action would suit best.
What's more, I firmly believe in psychological treatment alongside, once the
very presence of this sexuality pattern usually jeopardizes a man's self-esteem,
wrecking havoc in his social and personal spheres.
