Practice healthy lifestyles to prevent Erectile Dysfunction

Men face ED as they age. Usually most men face erectile dysfunction or ED after 40 years. Research statistics show that young men, who are below 40 years, also face ED due to job stress. Lifestyle plays a great role in sexual life of men. Hence a healthy lifestyle is very essential for men to achieve and maintain erection.

Psychological factors like anxiety, depression stress etc lead to erectile dysfunction. The failure to perform in bed reinforces the psychological causes and aggravates the situation. Co-operation from partner, travelling, yoga, meditation etc can help to reduce psychological causes.

Addictions for smoking, alcohol, drugs etc also lead to sexual dysfunction. Quitting these habits definitely help to get back the lost vigor or sexual power.

Sedentary lifestyle is another culprit which paves way to sexual dysfunction. Sedentary lifestyle leads to obesity and other obesity related diseases. Regular exercises like walking, jogging, cycling etc help to increase blood circulation and aid weight loss. Physical exercises also help to reduce stress level.

Healthy eating has to be incorporated in daily lifestyle. Fast foods, soft drinks, deep fried foods, sweets, chocolates etc increase body weight. Increased body weight or obesity is the major cause for erectile dysfunction.

Ayurveda acharyas recommend healthy lifestyles to keep diseases at bay. Following “Dinacharya” (Daily routine) and Ritucharya (seasonal lifestyle changes) help to increase sexual energy by leaps and bounds.

Low sperm count Causes

The main cause of male infertility is low sperm count. Many biological and environmental factors can cause low sperm count in men. The causes of male infertility have been explained in texts of ayurveda. Few of these factors are discussed below.

Age: Studies have shown that the rate of fertility decreases as age of men increases. Low testosterone level and degeneration of tissues may cause lowered fertility in aged persons. Ayurveda acharyas recommend “Vajikarana therapy” to elderly men. This therapy keeps men as strong as “Vaji” ( Horse) by increasing their sexual energy and stamina.

Stress: Emotional Stress produces stress hormones which interfere in production of sperms. This results in low sperm count. Stress reducing techniques like Yoga, Meditation, deep breathing etc help to reduce stress. Hence ayurveda acharyas have included herbs like Ashwagandha in Vajikarana category.

Lubricants: Lubricants used in condoms or Vaseline can affect sperm count.

Testicular Exposure to Overheating.: Over heating of testicles due to fever, saunas, hot water bath tubs etc reduce sperm count. Persons who work with their lap tops keeping them on their thighs may encounter low level of sperms. Men who are exposed to very high temperatures at working place may also face this condition. Ayurveda acharyas recommend washing of testicles with cold water twice daily.

Cocaine or marijuana: Cocaine or marijuana reduces sperm count by 50%. They reduce the swimming ability of sperms. According to principles of ayurveda these substances are “tamoguna pradhana” . Tamoguna induces lethargy and sleep. Hence sperms lose their ability to swim when these substances are consumed.

Smoking. Studies have shown that smoking reduces sperm count and sperm motility. It also reduces life span of sperm. Apart from this it causes erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation which are also causes of primary infertility.

Nutrient deficiencies: Nutrients like as vitamin C, selenium, zinc, and folate help in production of healthy sperms and they also help to increase their count. Deficiency of these nutrients may lead to low sperm count.

Obesity: Few studies have shown a relationship between obesity and low sperm count. According to ayurveda caharyas heating of testicles due to overlapping belly may lead to low sperm count.

Trauma to testicles: Any trauma to testicles may interfere with production of sperms. Usually Bicycling, raiding motor bike, etc lead to lowering of sperm count.

Apart from these genetic factors, toxins, chemicals, heavy metals and infections may also hinder production of sperms which results in low sperm count. Exposure to X-ray and other radiations may also act as causative factors for lowering sperm count.

Varicocele : Varicoceles are found in 15% to 20% of all men and in 25% to 40% of infertile men. It is not clear how they affect fertility, or even if they do at all.

Premature Ejaculation Help Now

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.
