Medical Video: 5 Simple Ways To Cure Weak Erection (Erectile Dysfunction -- Causes and Treatment)
Today, impotence often occurs because of lifestyle and physical condition. This is why now impotence does not look at age. So, what causes impotence at a young age? Previously, let's look at the following explanation.
Impotence or erectile dysfunction causes a person unable to erect or maintain a penile erection, so that sexual activity is hampered. In general, older men are known to often experience the disorder, but keep in mind that not all men who have age will experience sexual barriers.
A July 2013 study by the Journal of Sexual Medicine showed that impotence occurs more commonly among men who are younger than previously thought. The researchers found that impotence affects 26 percent of men under the age of 40. Almost half of young people suffer from severe impotence. Then what is the cause of impotence at a young age?
Causes of impotence at a young age
1. Frequent consumption of alcohol
Alcohol is a nervous system depressant that can actually block nerve impulses and block communication in the brain with the body. Alcohol will affect the working system of the nerves during erection, so there is no continuity between the brain and nerves that regulate the penis to make it erect.
2. Using certain drugs
Medicines used to treat high blood pressure, work in the arteries and blood flow, so that it automatically affects the workings of the organs in getting an erection. The longer the hypertension can cause impotence because the arteries are less flexible and narrow, so that the blood flow to the arteries decreases. This is what causes impotence, because blood circulating in the penis is limited.
3. Smoking
Men who love smoking usually do not realize that the smoking habit that continues will actually endanger health, including their genitals. The longer, the nicotine accumulation contained in cigarettes will increasingly accumulate in the body. Excessive nicotine deposits will cause blood flow not smooth and cause erections to not run normally.
4. Using hair growth medicine
Did you know that hair growth medicine can be a cause of impotence at a young age? In April 2012, the US Food and Drug Administration warned against products to grow hair loss containing Propecia drugs, to include warnings about long-term sexual side effects including problems with libido, ejaculation, and orgasm in men.
5. Depression
Feelings of sexual arousal that cause erections, starting in the brain. Conditions such as depression and anxiety can interfere with the process. One of the main signs of depression is losing interest in things that have brought pleasure, including sexual relations.
Stress related to work, money, and other life events can cause impotence at a young age. Relationship problems and poor communication with your partner can also cause sexual dysfunction in men.
