Male Impotency: What You Should Know

Of all the problems a relationship can have it is those of a sexual nature that often affect couple the most and in particular, male impotence. It can cause great distress between the couple and can impact their relationship if one does not take it as seriously as the other. BTW, I found a site about Escorts in Valencia in Spanish: escort Valencia. The reasons for impotence can be many but there are things that can be done to help.

Erectile dysfunction, to give male impotence its correct name is the condition where sex cannot take place as an erection cannot be maintained. There are varying degrees of male impotence for the inability to get an erection to erections that only last a short period of time to someone who is able to get erections but erratically. Approximately 10 to 15 million American men suffer from some form of impotence but the good news is that it is easy to understand and can be treated in all age groups.

An erection is possible because the penis is made up of many thousands of blood vessels that enter a mass of absorbent tissue with an amount of muscle attached. Sexual stimulation which can come in the form of thoughts (even unconscious ones like dreams) or through a form of manual stimulation that tells the nerves to activate a flow of blood into the penis. This inflow of blood creates the erection then once the erection is no longer required the muscles inside the penis contract which forces the blood back out making it flaccid once again.

Any break in the signals that force the blood to enter the penis and an erection will not happen, creating male impotence. A number of conditions and illnesses can cause this like diabetes or alcohol to name just two.

Diseases or conditions which affect the blood flow can cause impotence this can also include surgical procedures or accidents to the male sex organs or prostate area. The nerves can also respond adversely to conditions that may create severe stress or psychological conditions that will cause erectile dysfunctionIf man is under huge amounts of stress, this too can affect his ability to obtain an erection.

The most important step a man can take is to make an appointment to see his doctor who should be able to locate the problem and help with treating it. It is not uncommon for older men to exhibit signs of impotence but exercise, healthy eating to lose weight and giving up smoking usually help.
