Impotence treatment – what can you do besides ‘aphrodisiacs’?

Impotence is largely a lifestyle disease, like cardiovascular disease, and the affluence of life has led to more treatments on the one hand, and a rising incidence on the other. Mention of impotence most people can cite one or two ‘aphrodisiacs’ to, but, after all, impotence is a disease, in addition to ‘aphrodisiacs’ you can do? First, do enough science, recognize the nature of impotence Impotence is just a symptom caused by insufficient blood flow to the penis, just like the symptoms of angina caused by insufficient blood supply to the heart. Problems with nerves, blood vessels or psychological problems can affect the circulation of the penis and impotence, where the specific problems can be determined by examination. This is to suggest that you should pay attention to impotence and consult a doctor in time for diagnosis. Lifestyle changes are important As mentioned above, impotence and arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease, hypertension, etc. are diseases related to blood vessels, so these diseases often co-exist; if you have one of these diseases, then the possibility of you getting another disease is greatly increased. Diabetes can easily damage the function of blood vessels and nerves, so more than 60% to 70% of people with diabetes will get impotence. All of the above is to encourage you to make some lifestyle changes. You need to stick to regular exercise, a healthy diet, stop smoking and drink alcohol in moderation. Do not long distance cycling and sedentary change, etc., these two ways will cause pelvic congestion, at the same time will be on the perineum of the nerves and blood vessels have extrusion and damage. Third, pay attention to the adverse effects of drugs, some of which can lead to failure to erectile hardness of the penis have an impact on the drugs include: treatment of prostate drugs (sometimes also used in the treatment of hair loss), such as finasteride, because of its anti-androgenic effect, some people eat will be a bad erection; other drugs such as anti-anxiety and depression medication, sedative drugs. Taking antidepressants with poor erections may benefit from adjusting the medication to trazodone. Antihypertensives, because of their ability to lower blood pressure, reduce penile perfusion pressure, which can lead to impotence due to insufficient blood supply to the penile arteries. It is then necessary to adjust the antihypertensive drugs to adrenergic receptor antagonists, calcium channel blockers or angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, which may lead to an improvement in impotence in some patients. Fourth, most of the impotence is mixed; that is, both psychosexual factors and organic factors The cause of impotence is very complex, do not simply divide the cause into psychological and organic, and do not simply think that psychological impotence is very good treatment and organic impotence is difficult to treat. Impotence can cause psychological problems, and psychological problems in turn can aggravate impotence. The current means of examination is very limited, the current research that most people’s impotence is related to the cause of arterial endothelial dysfunction, and this abnormality is currently no effective examination methods to determine. It is important to note that inborn or acquired metabolic disorders such as obesity and dyslipidemia are very common causes of impotence. Therefore, based on the specificity of impotence, it is important to establish a correct concept of treatment. It is important to pay attention to both medication and actively take psychotherapy or sex therapy. Fifth, understand the shortcomings of each treatment method As with other disease treatment, to determine whether your treatment method continues to be mainly based on the following points: 1, if the side effects are large, there are adverse reactions and can not be tolerated to be discontinued; 2, in my opinion, if a certain treatment does not work within 1 month should be adjusted; 3, ‘aphrodisiacs’ use The wrong method will affect the efficacy, and most people do not work at the first time, if not effective can continue to try a few times, do not easily negate its efficacy. Because there are not too many drugs that can effectively treat impotence; 4, do not blindly reject the surgery, if many attempts to medication is ineffective, to choose an effective surgical treatment as soon as possible.
