Erectile Dysfunction and impotence

There is no age discrimination when it comes to impotence and erectile. Personally I know of many men who suffer from impotence and erectile dysfunction and for those men this issue leads to other issues that they need to tend with at the same time.

Unfortunately a lot of men have no idea how they can work on these issues so that they too may enjoy a sex life like most men can. When I mentioned that age does not discriminate I have known of men as young as their late twenties who can’t perform and then there are many men in their forties, fifties and sixties.

Erectile dysfunction can be caused by a number of physical and psychological issues. It is mentioned on many of the medical sites on the net, that “in general ED (erectile dysfunction) is divided into organic (having to do with a bodily organ or organ system) and psychogenic (mental) impotence, but moth men with organic causes have a mental or psychological component as well.”

I found that the men that came to see me suffered from erectile dysfunction suffered from psychological issues as well as emotional problems because of this issue. Speaking with them personally I could tell from their responses and their emotional state that not being able to perform because of impotence was certainly affecting them.

Of course when this issue affects them emotionally, their problems are exasperated and it affects them both physically and mentally. This also leads to other problems including loss of productivity at work due to anxiety and stress related issues.

The men who came to see me had various medical issues that led to their impotence and erectile dysfunction issues. The men who came to see me were of varying ages; ranging from their early twenties through to their sixties and seventies.

Some of the medical issues that these guys had ranged from: Vascular diseases and hormonal problems while some were affected by the medications they had to take for other medical issues.

For many of the men those medical issues that saw them having to use prescription medications for a very long time to help them live a better life. Unfortunately some of those medications cause them to suffer erectile dysfunction and impotence. Those medical issues varied from diabetes, depression, high blood pressure, thyroid problems, high cholesterol, some cancers and their treatments.

After speaking to over 600 men in a period of 36 months I found that the causes above were the main ones that these men had to deal with.

There are of course some treatments now available to help some men. But one thing you have to remember is that not all treatments help all men. Men who need something to give them peace of mind and to try and restore the confidence it takes to help get their sex life back on track. That is why a lot of men came to see me. Not only were they able to discuss their problems but they were able to ‘see if it would work’.

When you are feeling down and the anxiety has kicked in because you have taken medications or you feel that you just can’t do it any more, then giving yourself something to try to see if it works may help.

I remember a young guy in his late twenties who came to see me. He was very quiet and he was trying to deal with some medical issues after an operation that had left him very deflated in all ways... mentally and physically…

He had been referred to me by his surgeon because he was not improving and yet the surgeon had told him that he was fine. It was all in his head though.

I won’t go into details here about his ‘treatment’ but after talking to him, reassuring him and showing him he can do it, helped him immensely.

But for those men who don’t have the support or have help like this young guy did, they can be living an emotional roller coaster ride both physically and mentally.

Impotence and erectile dysfunction are issues that a lot of men have problems dealing with, seeing your doctor or general practitioner is a good start. But searching online for solutions and support is beneficial for those who don’t like or feel they can’t talk to their doctors face to face.
