Male potency consists of sufficient tension of the penis and obtaining an erection to perform a full-fledged sexual act. The main role in this is played by the amount of testosterone hormone in the body. Testosterone is secreted by the Leydig cells of the testicles, and the less it is produced, the weaker the erection.
It is possible to promote the production of testosterone in a man's body by knowing the reasons why its production decreases or increases. They can be physiological and psychological.
The age of the man is an important factor, because in healthy men under the age of 35-40, the causes of impotence may be more related even to psychological barriers. In men over 40, these dysfunctions are often the consequences of hormonal failure or various diseases.
The reasons for the decrease in testosterone levels in the body of a man can be:
- damage to intervertebral discs
- myelodysplasia of the spine
- peripheral toxic neuropathies,
- Parkinson's disease,
- multiple sclerosis,
- overweight,
- chronic stress, depression,
- alcohol abuse and drug use,
- taking tranquilizers and antidepressants, anabolic steroids,
- post-traumatic and postoperative consequences.
Men who have infection with ureaplasmosis and other mycoplasmas in the body, if left untreated, also risk a gradual decrease in male potency. Endocrine causes can be diseases of the thyroid gland and pituitary gland. Diagnoses such as hypogonadism, prolactinoma and sarcoidosis not only affect erectile function but also reduce sexual desire.
In addition, the fear of a man's sexual impotence, as well as self-doubt and problems in relations with a partner, seriously affect potency.
To establish the exact causes of insufficient potency, it is necessary to consult an andrologist. And following his instructions to restore lost male power. In addition to drug treatment and procedures within the walls of the clinic, you can also independently strengthen potency at home.
