The main causes of weak potency

Experts say that only a doctor can find out the cause of a decrease in potency, after communication with the patient and a thorough examination, and properly eliminate it. In some cases, it may be necessary to consult several doctors at the same time, for example, a cardiologist, endocrinologist, andrologist, neurologist, urologist, and others.

Among the main reasons for poor potency in men, experts identify the following factors:

  • chronic diseases such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, prostatitis, diabetes mellitus, and others;
  • Taking certain medications including antidepressants, hormones, pills to lower blood pressure;
  • harmful working conditions and bad environmental conditions;
  • a sedentary lifestyle and stagnant processes in the pelvis;
  • physical, mental, psycho-emotional overwork;
  • an adverse environment at home and at work;
  • frequent stress and anxiety, increased anxiety, depression, apathy;
  • Obesity;
  • Bad habits;
  • unbalanced diet;
  • lack of self-confidence, fear and intense arousal before sexual intercourse;
  • not getting enough rest;
  • congenital and acquired pathologies of the genital organs.

Another reason for a decrease in potency is an irregular sex life, masturbation that replaces full-fledged sex, or frequent partner changes.

Some other factors can also negatively affect potency. For example, many experts argue that frequent riding on a motorcycle, horse, or bicycle can lead to a deterioration in the blood supply to the penis and potency problems. Doctors have also found a link between periodontal disease (gum disease) and "male weakness".

Signs of weak potency

As we have already found out, the reasons for the drop in potency can be different. Usually the first signs of such a phenomenon are a decrease in the desire for intimacy with a woman. A decrease in potency is expressed in other ways:

  • the desire for sex occurs rarely or not at all;
  • there is no morning erection - the reasons may be banal fatigue, age-related changes or illnesses;
  • Lack of erection during foreplay to sex;
  • incomplete or sluggish erection, which may fall off at the most inopportune moment;
  • the impossibility of long-term and quality intercourse;
  • Problems with ejaculation;
  • decreased sensitivity of the penis and blurred sensations during orgasm.

If any of these signs are new or very rare, it should not be alarming. Often such a short-term decrease in potency is caused by overwork, stress or an adverse environment and does not require treatment.

General recommendations for increasing potency

The erection is a very complex mechanism that is influenced by a large number of external and internal factors. All problems in the body can cause a man to lose potency for several days or forever. In fact, without timely diagnosis and treatment, some diseases can lead to irreversible tissue changes that lead to impotence and infertility.

  5. Boost immunity in every possible way. In the absence of contraindications and serious health problems, regardless of the reasons for the weak potency of a man, there will be positive effects on the sex life and general tone of a person hardening procedures, visits to baths, saunas, steam rooms.
  6. Have a normal sex life in which there is no prolonged abstinence and sexual exhaustion from excessive sexual intercourse.

If there is no improvement in your health within a week or if you notice other disturbing symptoms in addition to a decrease in potency, for example frequent and painful urination, difficulty ejaculating, heaviness in the lower abdomen, blood or pus in the urine or semen, then you should consult a doctor. . .

Usually, after the examination, to get rid of the causes of sluggish potency and normalize a man's sex life, specialists choose complex therapy. This takes into account the individual characteristics of a person, their state of health, age and other factors. With a slight deterioration in potency, the doctor prescribes drinking a vitamin-mineral complex, selects fortifying and fortifying preparations.

What can help with weak potency?

For erectile problems due to stress and anxiety, it is recommended to resort to sedatives, decoctions of lemon balm and mint, and some other herbs. Some experts recommend using homeopathic remedies, folk recipes and dietary supplements to improve potency.

However, these methods do not always have demonstrated clinical effectiveness. In addition, although they have a minimum of contraindications and possible side effects, they do not help everyone.

In particularly severe cases, when it is not possible to naturally improve potency, the doctor will choose an erection stimulator for men.

Unfortunately, they have a lot of contraindications and possible side effects, they are not suitable for everyone. It is impossible to use such agents for the prophylaxis of erectile dysfunction.

If there have been problems with erection due to an illness, treatment is carried out first, and only then measures are taken to restore potency. For example, if prostatitis is the cause of a sluggish erection, therapy will be given to clear the inflammation.

Also, if the cause of erectile dysfunction is certain drugs that are constantly used, including antidepressants and drugs to lower blood pressure, the specialist can choose another drug that has the same therapeutic effect but is less dangerous for potency.

Therefore, at the first symptoms of erectile dysfunction, you should put aside all doubts and shyness and go to a good specialist. With this approach, the chances of full potency recovery at any age, even by 60, are significantly increased.
