Effects of Alcohol: Erectile Dysfunction and Difficult Ejaculation

2009-10-20T04:17:00.000-07:00

We all are aware of the effects of alcohol on social and physical level but today we will discuss the effect of alcohol on a man’s sexual life. The negative sexual effects of alcohol on men depend on the amount of alcohol consumed and frequency at which a man drinks. The researchers have found a few serious sexual effects of alcohol on sexual functioning;
Reduced sexual desire Increased sexual aggression Difficulty getting and maintaining erections
Difficulty ejaculating/delayed ejaculation Infertility Although a small amount of alcohol increases sexuality and desire and sociability in men and women, as the consumption increases, the positive effects of alcohol turns into negative. Main problem with alcohol consumption is that it causes erectile dysfunction. Alcohol is responsible for Hypogonadism in men which means a reduced or absent secretion of hormones from the sex glands (gonads).
After heavy alcohol consumption, if a man succeeds in getting an erection, he may find difficulty in ejaculating or he may not be able to maintain an erection. These problems persist in men who are chronic drinkers, but in occasional drinkers, these symptoms wither away as the alcohol passes out from the body.
A research on 17,000 alcoholic men it was found that after several years of no alcohol 50% returned to normal erectile functioning, and the other 50% were either partially or completely unable to get an erection, even when sexual desire returned. Alcohol abuse can also be associated with worsening other physical conditions in the body which again are responsible for causing erectile dysfunction. These conditions are diabetes, heart disease and hypertension. While the anti-impotence drugs like Levitra can take care of your erectile dysfunction even in tough conditions, alcohol has the potential of smothering your passion.
True, the guidelines for taking erectile dysfunction pills refer to the adverse effect of alcohol. So make sure that you take them either without alcohol or not more than two pegs if you want your prescribed medicine to function properly and give the desired result.
So it’s a plea to those verdant in sex and sexual affairs, while you drink for more sociability and confidence, make sure that you do not drink more than two moderate pegs. The more you drink alcohol, the more you increase the possibility of erectile dysfunction and delayed ejaculation. Moreover, if you are intoxicated, you will lose sexual desire which means no pleasure in lovemaking.
Sex is something in which you need to take pleasure from all five senses. Alcohol destroys your senses and makes you unable to enjoy and perform well in bed. When you are completely intoxicated, no sex pill can help you to have satisfactory sex. Avoid alcohol while you have sex in mind. Sex has more pleasure and benefits to offer you than alcohol.

Alcoholism Disease and Alcoholism Physical Symptoms

2009-10-09T04:45:00.000-07:00

Alcoholism disease and alcoholism physical symptoms should be understood if there's a concern about alcohol abuse. Alcoholism disease can be defined as a drug addiction where alcohol consumption is at a level that interferes with the person's physical and mental health and negatively impacts family, social or work responsibilities.

Because alcohol consumption can involve many organs in the body, long-term heavy drinking puts a person at risk for developing serious health conditions and illnesses. While each of the health conditions listed below can exist for reasons unrelated to alcoholism disease, certain conditions and alcoholism physical symptoms may be indications that alcohol abuse exists and is affecting the health of the person.
Here are examples of health conditions and related alcoholism physical symptoms that may indicate alcoholism disease:
• Liver Inflammation - alcoholism physical symptoms for liver inflammation include abnormal yellowing of the skin, eyeballs and urine, fever and abdominal pain. Since alcohol destroys liver cells and the ability of the liver to regenerate new cells, long term abuse of alcohol can lead to cirrhosis of the liver.
• Cirrhosis of the Liver - symptoms of cirrhosis or scarring of the liver tissue can be tiredness or even exhaustion, nausea, loss of sex drive and appetite loss leading to weight loss.
• Malnutrition - a common alcoholism physical symptom is malnutrition. While the symptoms will vary with the specific malnutrition-related disorder, general symptoms include dizziness, tireness, unexplained weight loss and reduced immune system function.
• High Blood Pressure - high blood pressure symptoms include dizziness, headache, blurred vision and nausea. And the American Heart Association advises that excessive alcohol consumption can raise levels of triglycerides in the blood and related increased risk of heart attacks and strokes.
• Pancreaitis - long term heavy drinking can result in the development of inflammation of the pancreas which is called 'pancreatitis'. The pancreas are needed for food digestion, and pancreaitis symptoms include severe abdominal pain and weight loss.
• Erectile Dysfunction - alcoholism disease will likely affect a man in the bedroom. Heavy drinking can cause sexual dysfunction, meaning the man may have difficulty getting an erection. And the likelihood of alcohol-related erectile dysfunction occurring increases as a man gets older.
• Insomnia - the connection between sleep problems and disturbances and alcohol abuse has been proven by numerous studies. Alcohol in the body can interfere with getting to sleep and with enjoying deep, restful sleep. In fact, insomnia may continue for weeks or months after alcohol abstinance.
Additional long term alcoholism disease health effects include damage to the brain, nerve damage, bleeding in the esophagus and depression. Alcohol consumption can increase the breast cancer risk in women undergoing hormone replacement therapy, according to the National Cancer Institute. Alcoholic beverages are considered cancer-causing by the US Department of Health and Human Services.
Important note -- all of the conditions listed above may be due to reasons other than alcoholism disease and must not be considered conditions that should be self-diagnosed. Most of these conditions can become life-threatening and should only be diagnosed by qualified health care professionals.
Besides alcoholism physical symptoms, learn more about the alcoholism warning signs, alcoholism stages and proven resources available online that can help. It is never too late to begin recovery from alcoholism disease and alcohol addiction.

Erectile Dysfunction - Treat It with These Simple Steps

2009-10-05T23:48:00.000-07:00

Embarrassment, Sadness and a sense of deep un accomplishment are some of the feelings associated with the persons suffering from erectile dysfunction. In fact, erectile dysfunction makes a man feel deprived of his manhood and creates a deep feeling of shallowness. Moreover, a man suffering from erectile dysfunction feels himself less confident and excessively uncomfortable in the company of women. He tries to shun their company under one pretext or the other.
According to a survey there are 3.5 million men suffering from erectile dysfunction in the US alone and about 90,000 fresh cases of erectile dysfunction surface every year which clearly points out the pace at which this nasty disease is spreading out. Erectile dysfunction is the inability of a man to hold blood in his penile area to keep hard erection. Sufficient circulation of blood is mandatory to create firmness in the male genital area. Men always look for short cuts to treat their erectile dysfunction problem. That is why they spend billions of dollars every year on over the counter drugs to treat erectile dysfunction. These drugs affect health in the long run. There are alternative ways to treat erectile dysfunction and regain incredibly hard erection without taking any drug. There are some simple sex boosting exercises and routines which have a humongously salubrious effect on the male sexual health. These exercises gradually build sexual stamina, produce steel pipe erection and stop premature ejaculation in a naturally safe way. Some of these exercises include PC muscle workouts. PC muscle is the muscle which stops the flow of urine/semen when contracted. A properly trained and toned PC muscle works wonders and enables a man to make love virtually all night.
Moreover, a man who is suffering from erectile dysfunction should avoid excessive use of alcohol, smoking and sedentary life style as obesity also causes erectile dysfunction. Apart from helping in the treatment of erectile dysfunction, avoidance of alcohol, smoking and sedentary life style help men keep away many other diseases.
Another important step to treat erectile dysfunction is, to add balanced and nutritious diet in the daily meal plan. Balanced diet coupled with above mentioned exercises would have a great impact on the male genital organs. Exercise would strengthen the male genital organs whereas the diet would add more energy into this process. If you take exercise regularly and tone your genital muscles properly, you would be able to treat your erectile dysfunction in a natural and safe manner.

Herbal Male Enhancement - Male Enhancement Without the Side Effects

2009-09-03T07:02:00.000-07:00

Herbal male enhancement helps a man to achieve greater enjoyment of his sexual life. It helps to maintain blood flow, creating a firmer, fuller-feeling erection, leading to a heightened enjoyment of the sexual experience.

Recent studies have shown that men feel a decrease in sexual desire with increasing age. This is attributed to various reasons: professional stress and strain, the pressure of family responsibilities, lack of exercise, smoking and poor nutrition.

To address this problem there are now several natural, herbal male enhancement products available in the market, which aim to increase sexual desire in men. These herbal male enhancement products are available as pills, creams, perfume and cologne. All these are made from natural ingredients which help in improving erection by increasing size and volume, and enhancing sexual stamina.

Male enhancement herbs also help to restore the body to a healthy functionality, and have a series of health benefits. Compared to prescription drugs, herbal male enhancement products have no side effects. This is because most of the ingredients in these herbal male enhancement products are the modified form of what is found in nature. Experiments and studies have established that consumption of these herbal male enhancement products helps a man to reach full arousal by increased blood flow, enabling him to find the maximum pleasure in his love life.
These herbs have been used in very specific combinations for centuries by people all over the world. Not only are they individually harmless, but in combination, they result in a powerful enhancement of male virility and anatomy. Many of these herbs are sourced from China, Japan, Europe and South America, and some of these like Ginko Biloba, Ginseng, Dodder seed (Seman Cuscutae), Epimedium Sagittatum, Tribulus Terestris powder, and Inosine Anhydrous have been used in traditional societies from time immemorial to cure impotence, nocturnal emission, premature ejaculation, low sperm count and other sexual maladies.

Premature Ejaculation Help Now

2009-07-21T04:08:00.000-07:00

Premature ejaculation is a problem that can really darken a man's sex life; it can plague his relationships with women and can cause him to have low self esteem problems. When a man knows that a potential sexual encounter can end with his embarrassment he will choose not to participate in that event, and thus the dark spiral begins.
I have talked to a lot of men who have gone through this experience, and they all talked about the negative effects it had on their lives. They purposely would not get involved in a relationship even though they wanted to, and even if they did, the relationship would eventually fail due to their excuse and inability to have sex. In fact, some have spoken of going YEARS without sexual contact due to their fear of being embarrassed. Men choosing not to have families and be happy because of their fear of prematurely ejaculating, so it's obvious just how much of an effect this condition can have on your life.
Another problem is that the longer you put off finding a solution to premature ejaculation, the worse the problem gets because the inner issues become deeper and your sense of self becomes more wounded that eventually you need deeper methods to fix your problems. At the start quick fix techniques such as squeezing and thicker condoms will do the trick, but the longer you wait, the harder it gets to fix.
This is the beauty of the internet in the modern world, a man doesn't need to go to a doctor straight away, and he can log on and browse the internet. Premature ejaculation is widely covered on the internet, and within minutes of logging on a man can find just what he needs to do right now to solve his problem
So I jumped online to see just what is out there and here's what I discovered:
1. The pills DON'T WORK, they are designed to make money and not designed to actually fix your problems, most, if not all men that took them agreed to this point.
2. There are QUICK FIX TECHNIQUES, but they aren't usually long term, they help you in the moment but leave the deeper insecurity belief untouched. But that being said, short term fixes can in fact help facilitate inner change.
3. There are lots of methods that address the deeper problems, such as NLP, and they are valuable and I highly recommend checking them out.

Guy Sex-Anatomy Facts

2009-07-21T04:02:00.000-07:00

Always good to clear the air of any misconceptions with some solid facts about the penis:
• Big guys don’t necessarily have big penises. A 6’5” basketball player could have a tiny gherkin-sized penis while a 5’3” shrimpy guy could be extremely well-endowed.
• Likewise, you know what they say about a guy with big feet? Well it doesn’t mean squat. Big hands and feet have nothing to do with penis-size.
• Hairiness (or lack thereof) has nothing to do with virility. Guys who are hairy or who are bald have a predisposition to be that way – it has nothing to do with testosterone or libido.
• Not all guys masturbate regularly. At least 5% pass on this daily activity.
• A veiny penis is totally normal; it is not a sign of infection, infertility, or impotence.
• Mountain Dew will not decrease sperm count. People used to think that yellow dye 5m and caffeine were responsible for a drop in sperm, but both theories have been debunked.
• Not all guys are circumcised and it’s becoming more popular to leave boys fully intact. In fact, 85% of men in the world are uncircumcised. In the US, every year the number of circumcisions drops, and is now only slightly more than 50%.
• The average erect penis is about 5” long. Any hard on bigger than that is considered big.
• Erectile dysfunction is not a symptom of aging. Older people are more likely to get Erectile dysfunction because of other illnesses that they’ve acquired over time and because of medications that they may be taking. This is why young men can also experience ED and problems with impotence.
• Guys can fake an orgasm too. Unless a woman knows that a guy generally ejaculates bucket-loads, it’s possible for a guy to fake climax – almost as easy as it is for his partner.

Do Not Confuse Erectile Dysfunction and Premature Ejaculation

2009-06-11T05:29:00.000-07:00

It's a reality that premature ejaculation is often undiagnosed. One of the cause is because men confuse it with erectile dysfunction. They don't know the difference. If they sometime have premature ejaculation, consider themselves as impotent, or sexually dysfunctional. As a consequence, when visit their health care and try to explain their problem, they use terms like impotence, or other related, that don't really apply to their condition.
Patients confusion and the conjuncture that doctors don't always take time to fully investigate what's happening, could rise in a incorrect erectile dysfunction diagnose.
Another situation that can generate confusion, is the fact that over time premature ejaculation sufferers, over many years, will often develop erectile dysfunction as a secondary problem. Their permanent fear of ejaculating rapidly, will sometimes cause them to lose the penis erection. In other words, they may develop symptoms of erectile dysfunction along with their premature ejaculation.
It's a fact that the two conditions can interact with each other in a number of different ways. Very often men present to a doctor saying, "I lose my erection and I ejaculate very rapidly". The problem is which one was first? Because if they can't have the erection, they can't perform sexually. In this situation the ejaculation problem is kind of more hypothetical. If patients say "I ejaculate very rapidly and I lose my erection", then probably it's about a premature ejaculation situation.

How Heart and Erectile Dysfunction Conditions Are Related

2009-04-08T05:27:00.000-07:00

If you start to have problems having a hard erection when you need it, then this is the time to see a doctor. If you feel this is a temporary issue caused by personal stress, then using a natural male enhancement product may be all you need.
Having erectile dysfunction, ED, is an early warning symptom of a more serious illness that is lurking hidden within the body. To discover what is lurking deep within your body, if you have Erectile dysfunction, you need to ask why you would have Erectile dysfunction and how you can go about to reduce it.
It does not matter what age you are. You may think that only older men have hardness problems, but surveys and doctor reports show that men in their 20's and up can have hardness problems. Good natural male enhancement formulations can temporarily help the younger person.
First let's make this clear. ED is a result of poor health. You may come to believe it is because of your age. But what if you are only 29 years and have ED? If you are able to have sex 3 times a week, then this is an indication that you might have good health and are in good shape.
Here's what Dr. Steven Lamm say about sex, "Sex is like an athletic event...you want to be in great shape so you are ready for your 100-meter workout in the bedroom. This entails eating sensibly, limiting alcohol, not smoking, and getting enough sleep..." Find a doctor that understands how to help you for sexual dysfunction.
Here is the real secret. A good heart equals excellent hardness. Your weak heart and a compromised cardiovascular system decreases your level of hardness. The more progressive your heart condition is the softer you will get. So it does not pay to buy into your embarrassment. If you are having problems with ED, then go see your doctor in the early stages of these symptoms, especially if your are a young man. A doctor versed in natural male enhancement methods will help you with your heart and hardness issues.
To start with there are three things that are important for getting hard - blood, oxygen, and nitric oxide. As mentioned you need good blood circulation that is provided natural by a healthy cardiovascular system and a strong pumping heart. Blood is pumped into the penis area to enlarge it, and it should go there without putting extra stress into the cardiovascular system. But blood in the penis does not make hard it just makes it bigger. Natural male enhancement products improve blood circulation.
The expression, "If you don't use it, you will lose it", applies here. If you go without having an erection for a long time, you can damage your penis. Nature helps to prevent this by getting you hard a couple of times during the night, when you are asleep. If this is not happening, then you need to take action get an erection on a weekly basis and this can be done by taking a natural male enhancement product.
One of the most critical chemical related to hardness is nitric oxide. Without this chemical, you will not be able to have an erection. Nitric oxide is produced along the artery walls. If you have plaque build up alone these walls or arteriosclerosis, this will affect your nitric oxide production and hardness.
Making sure you are healthy by diet and exercise will insure that you will never have a problem with hardness and your love life. See your doctor is you have been having hardness issue for a while. If you know that you have good health but temporary have hardness problems using a natural male enhancement product can give you relief.

Controlling Premature Ejaculation - There Are Two Ways You Can Get it Under Control

2009-01-28T23:53:00.000-08:00

Look, lets just be blunt for a minute. Having a problem with premature ejaculation is no fun at all. The fact that you have this condition not only makes it more difficult to have a relationship with a partner, but it also can really take a toll on your confidence as a whole. If your ready to cure pre-ejaculation then keep reading.
Having a problems with premature ejaculation makes it very difficult to go out and meet new potential partners. It reminds me of the first time I had sex. It was over so fast I barley even knew what happened. I just hoped that she would give me another chance to try and make it last longer.
If you continuously have this problem, I know how difficult it can be. It almost takes the want out of even approaching a potential partner because you are afraid of what would happen should things get intimate. You most times will just avoid the situation just so you are not put in that position just to save yourself the embarrassment.
But that is part of the problem. While there is no doubt that part of it is physical, there is a great deal of it that is mental. You have set yourself up to believe that you are going to ejaculate well before you partner does before you even know their name. Changing your mind set is the first thing you have to do.
The other thing you need to do is get as much practice as you can. Hopefully you have a partner who understands the situation. All you need to do is practice the pull out method for a while. Just go as long as you can and then before you are getting close to ejaculating pull out. Just hold off for a couple minutes until you get it under control and then continue.

Obesity Erectile Dysfunction - How to Stop it Today!

2009-01-14T23:50:00.000-08:00

There are a lot of known causes of male erectile dysfunction. Illnesses like diabetes and high blood pressure can cause this condition as does obesity. Obesity is a condition that is brought about by an unhealthy lifestyle characterized by overeating of fatty foods and an extreme lack of activity. A person who is obese is overweight and plump with body fat unevenly distributed throughout his body. It is not seldom that a person who is obese would also suffer from psychological distress brought about by feelings of confusion, depression, and anxiety. Obesity is a condition does not only bring about obesity erectile dysfunction, but also other chronic illnesses such as myocardial infraction, atherosclerosis, and kidney problems.

Obesity erectile dysfunction is caused primarily by lack of blood circulation in the penile area. This is usually brought about by excessive fat that builds up and blocks the blood vessels causing a decreased flow of blood through the veins in the penis. The lack of blood circulation also starves the organ of the necessary nourishment, hormones, and oxygen to stimulate erection. All these result from the excess fat that is not burned out by the body clogging the blood vessels and can be remedied by substantially limiting fat intake if not altogether banishing it from the diet temporarily or permanently.
Another cause for obesity erectile dysfunction is the inability of obese people to release nitric oxide due to epithelium damage. Nitric oxide is a necessary chemical that causes the penile muscles to relax and allow blood flow to enter and achieve erection. In people suffering from obesity erectile dysfunction, the epithelial layer of the heart that stimulates erection is unable to release nitric oxide because of excessive damage resulting from excessive insulin production for metabolizing bad cholesterol. This too can be stopped by controlling cholesterol intake and consequently insulin production of the body.
Treating obesity erectile dysfunction is best done through treating the root cause of the condition which is obesity. Diet and exercise are simple enough solutions to this condition. But much effort has to be exerted by one who is obese in sticking to a strict diet and exercise regimen to bring results. Eating food rich in vitamins and minerals necessary for stress-reduction and enhanced blood circulation can help put a stop to erectile dysfunction due to obesity. Vitamins C, E and B complex and zinc are essential minerals for cholesterol reduction, blood circulation stimulation, and energy and protein metabolism. Herbal medicines are also found to be effective in providing cure for erectile dysfunction. Gingko biloba and ginseng are among those herbal cures recommended for treatment of the condition. These natural ways of improving erectile dysfunction are recognized as the best way to deal with the condition as they have no side effects and are widely available.

Want to heat up your sex life and don't know how? This year for Valentine's Day forget the box of chocolates or flowers and head to the gym for a workout with your partner. The American Council on Exercise (ACE), America's non-profit fitness advocate, points out numerous studies that show a direct correlation between exercise and improved sexual function.
"A growing body of evidence supports the notion that regular exercise may enhance sexuality through a variety of mechanisms that affect both the mind and body," said Dr. Cedric Bryant, chief exercise physiologist for ACE. "Physical improvements in muscle strength and tone, endurance, body composition and cardiovascular function (specifically, enhanced peripheral blood flow) can all enhance sexual functioning. Be careful not to over-train; too much exercise can actually decrease testosterone levels leading to a less-robust sexual appetite."

Erectile Dysfunction and Reasons of ED

2008-12-11T01:49:00.000-08:00

Erectile Dysfunction, also known as Impotence, is a condition which effects many men worldwide with recent figures indicating that the condition can effect as many as 1 out of every 10 men at any given time throughout the course of their lives. As with most medical conditions or ailments, there is not one conclusive underlying cause of the condition but many possible reasons why sexual dysfunction amongst men can occur. The more common of these reasons, which can be both physical and psychological, will be explained below in this article and may be able to provide some much needed explanation of why this condition can occur.
Vascular Disease:
This condition, which is scientifically known as Arteriosclerosis, is a process defined by the hardening of a person's arteries which can often lead to erectile dysfunction. There are many attributing factors to the developing of this condition such as diet, diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol and lifestyle choices like smoking, which over a number of years can cause this hardening to take place. Vascular disease is often associated with age and can account for as many as 65% of all erectile dysfunction cases in men over the age of 60.
Prescription Medication:
At present there are well over 200 prescription treatments which are known to cause or at least contribute to the development of erectile dysfunction. These commonly prescribed medications can include treatments for depression, hypertension, cardiovascular conditions as well as sedatives and tranquilizers. In addition to these treatments there are a number of other substances, such as prohibited recreational drugs which are also known to be responsible for the development of this condition.
Diabetes:
Diabetes is a condition which is caused by high levels of sugar within the blood, which over a number of years can cause substantial damage to both the nerves and blood vessels found throughout the body. This condition is one of if not the single highest physical cause of erectile dysfunction cases with as many as 60% of men with ED as a direct result of Diabetes.
Peryonie's Disease:
This condition is extremely rare and is more frequent in men who are advancing in age. It is an inflammatory condition, which causes considerable scarring of the tissue found within the penis which causes abnormal curvature of a man's penis. This condition can often interfere with the sexual function of its sufferers as well as causing erections to be considerably painful.
Venous Leak:
Venous Leak is a condition where by the veins found within the penis are unable to prevent blood from flowing out, causing an erection to be lost. This condition can be occur for a number of different including disease, injury or other general damage to the veins which are located within the penis.
Hormone Disorders:
It is possible for erectile dysfunction to be caused by a deficiency in the amount of sex hormones, such as testosterone, found within the body. This physical accounts for less than 5% of all impotence cases and can not only make achieving an erection difficult but these disorders may also cause a decrease in sex drive and libido amongst men. This may two causes for the development of a hormone disorder such as this are an excess amount of a hormone called prolactin, often caused by a tumor of the pituitary gland, or from liver or kidney disease which can cause an imbalance of these hormones within the body.

Knowing Premature Ejaculation

2008-11-01T10:20:00.000-07:00

Premature Ejaculation is a condition that is affecting more and more males across the globe, with recent statistics claiming that between 25 and 40 percent of males will suffer this condition at some point in their lives. It is not a new condition, and is known by other names as well, such as 'Early Ejaculation', 'Premature Climax' and also 'Rapid Ejaculation' depending on the severity and symptoms of particular cases.

In general, however, aside from the varied symptoms that can occur, on it's most basic level, Premature Ejaculation means, "A lack or loss of control over ejaculation"! More studies, performed recently by a group known as Masters and Johnson, stated that, "as a rough indicator, a premature ejaculation sufferer will usually reach orgasm before their partner on more than 50% of the time"!

In earlier times, it was commonly believed that Premature Ejaculation was caused, solely by, psychological issues, however in more modern times, medical specialists have began to recognise the biological issues that can also be tied to this condition. It has also been shown that many of the cases of Premature Ejaculation in males are also linked to the similar condition in men known as Erectile Dysfunction, where the man finds difficulty either forming or maintaining an erection.

Definition Of Premature Ejaculation By International Society For Sexual Medicine (ISSM)

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/107506.php
The ISSM has defined premature ejaculation as "a male sexual dysfunction characterized by ejaculation which always or nearly always occurs prior to or within about one minute of vaginal penetration; and, inability to delay ejaculation on all or nearly all vaginal penetrations; and, negative personal consequences, such as distress, bother, frustration and/or the avoidance of sexual intimacy."

Can High Blood Pressure Cause Erectile Dysfunction?

2008-10-22T23:36:00.000-07:00

The most common causes of ED are a variety of medical conditions, certain medications, and also lifestyle habits that interfere with the ability of blood to flow to and through the penile tissues.
Hypertension or high blood pressure has no real symptoms. It is more of a silent killer as often men and women aren't aware that they are suffering from it. Nevertheless, it is a major medical condition and if hypertension is left untreated it can ultimately lead to erectile dysfunction, stroke, heart disease and other medical conditions.
Causes Of Hypertension And Erectile Dysfunction
The most common causes of high blood pressure and impotence include the following:
1. High blood pressure stops the arteries in the penis from dilating as they must do in order to achieve and maintain erections. It also allows the penis to lose the ability to relax and as a result there is an insufficient amount of blood flowing to the area.
2. Men suffering from hypertension more often than not have low testosterone levels which plays a very important part in all areas of a man's sex life.
3. Some hypertension medications are heavily linked with actually leading to sexual dysfunction. The most common medications are diuretics that are otherwise known as water pills and also beta-blocker medications.
Why Medications Can Cause ED
Diuretics may cause ED by decreasing the strength of blood flowing to the penile tissues. Beta-blockers diminish nerve impulses that lead to hardening the penis. They also make it more complex for penis arteries to widen and allow blood to flow to it.

How High Blood Pressure Causes Erectile Dysfunction

2008-10-04T09:39:00.000-07:00

http://highbloodpressure.about.com/od/associatedproblems/a/impotence.htm
Nobody knows exactly how high blood pressure causes erectile dysfunction and impotence. One leading theory is that the excess pressure in the blood vessels actually causes damage to small arteries in the penis.
Normally, these arteries dilate in response to sexual stimulation, allowing more blood to flow into the spongy tissue of the penis to produce an erection. It is thought that excessive pressure on these arteries may cause tiny tears, which the body then repairs. In response to these tears, the healed arteries become thicker, allowing them to better resist further damage. These thicker arteries, though, aren’t able to respond as fast, or as completely, to demands for extra blood, so they become a sort of dam in the flow of blood to the erectile tissues of the penis.
One problem with this theory is that some studies seem to show that how long a patient has had high blood pressure is not as important for predicting the risk of erectile dysfunction as is the actual severity of the high blood pressure. In other words, someone who has had moderate hypertension for twenty years sometimes appears to be at lower risk for erectile dysfunction than a young man who has had very serious hypertension for only a few months. In light of this, other theories of how high blood pressure contributes to erectile dysfunction have been proposed.

The ED Conversation Dilemma: Forty Percent Of Men With ED Don't Talk To Their Doctor, Survey Finds

2008-09-28T01:10:00.000-07:00

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/115546.php
A new survey reveals that while 82 percent of men with erectile dysfunction (ED) surveyed recognize it as an indicator of other health conditions, such as heart disease and diabetes, nearly 40 percent have never discussed the condition with their doctors. The survey, conducted by Ipsos Public Affairs and sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY), makers of Cialis® (tadalafil), was designed to further understand men's current beliefs about ED and ED treatment options, as well as the perceptions men have about communicating with their healthcare professional about ED.
"Sexual health is considered by many doctors as the window into a man's overall health -- for instance, erectile dysfunction can be an indicator of other health issues," said Ridwan Shabsigh, M.D., director of the Division of Urology at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY and professor of clinical urology at Columbia University. "It's important for men with ED to talk with their healthcare professional about ED and its treatment options. For instance, Cialis for once daily use is a new low-dose ED treatment option taken once a day and may be right for some men."
Perceived Barriers to the ED Conversation
According to the Ipsos survey results, discomfort discussing ED ranked as the number one barrier to good communication between a man and his doctor -- mentioned by 74 percent of men with ED who participated in the survey. The survey also found that, despite their discomfort, 64 percent of ED sufferers surveyed wished they knew more about ED and its treatments.
"Unfortunately, men tend not to talk about ED with their partner, their doctor or their friends," said Michael A. Perelman, Ph.D., co-director of the Human Sexuality Program at the Payne Whitney Clinic at NY Weill Cornell Medical Center in New York City. "As a psychologist and sexual medicine specialist, I would encourage any man who thinks he might have ED to talk with a healthcare professional to learn about available treatment options."

Erectile Dysfunction And Diabetes

A new study sheds additional light on how erectile dysfunction (ED) interacts with diabetes. The study is another step in uncovering the link between the two disorders, and may lead to improved efficacy in treatments.
Sexual dysfunction is a well-recognized consequence of diabetes mellitus in men. Erectile dysfunction, retrograde ejaculation and the loss of seminal emission have all been described by such patients. This study examined induced penile erection, yawning and stretch in diabetic rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats treated with streptozotocin (STZ) to induce diabetes were used as they exhibit sexual and behavioral symptoms similar to those found in diabetic men with sexual dysfunction.

Research on premature ejaculation

2008-09-06T17:16:00.000-07:00

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/8254.php
It is one of man's most common, underestimated sexual problems: Ejaculating earlier than desired. More common than erectile dysfunction, this condition can affect men at any point in their lives, and one in four men experience poor control over ejaculation on a frequent basis.
"Premature ejaculation is a frequent and distinct medical condition that can severely impact quality of life, affecting the physical and emotional well-being of patients and their partners," says James H. Barada, M.D.
The working group found that the term premature ejaculation was universally recognized and accurately understood by men with the condition and their partners, and concluded that changing the name may have the opposite effect, resulting in confusion and requiring extensive re-education. In the research study, which included 61 health care professionals, 75 men with premature ejaculation and 48 partners, other terms that also were occasionally used by physicians to describe the condition like "rapid ejaculation," were not as well understood by the study participants.

A Healthy Lifestyle Helps to Prevent Erectile Dysfunction

2008-08-14T04:32:00.000-07:00

A Healthy Lifestyle Helps to Prevent Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction (ED) becomes a more common condition as men age. Experts evaluate that about half of men older than 40 years have at least modest problems in achieving and maintaining an erection. Taking into consideration the US male population, that means erectile dysfunction may affect about 18 million men.
Nobody knows yet exactly why ED happens but the consequences are very serious in some cases.
A research team conducted by a scientist working for the manufacturer of Viagra concluded that men had problems in maintaining a relationship had important troubles related to depression, anxiety and self-esteem. After 10 weeks of treating erectile dysfunction, members of trial group restored self-esteem and improved their depression and anxiety condition.
Of course erectile dysfunction treatment is beneficial for people in need and many trials have confirmed the life improvements. But more important is to try to prevent this uncomfortable situation.
