Quit smoking.
Men who smoke are twice as likely to have erection problems as non-smokers. Smoking is bad for your sex life because nicotine clogs and narrows blood vessels. Moreover, many potency drugs have a much smaller effect on men who smoke.
Reduce alcohol consumption.
When alcohol is abused, the following negative consequences appear:
- decreased sensitivity of the genitals;
- decrease in testosterone levels in the body;
- impaired reproductive function due to atrophy of the seminal ducts;
- decrease in the production of male hormones.
Do not use drugs.
Many drugs can cause erection problems. Stimulants (cocaine and amphetamines) and depressants (marijuana and opiates) can cause serious problems. These drugs depress the central nervous system, and some of them can damage blood vessels. If you think you have a drug problem, you should seek medical attention.
Go in for sports.
Exercise helps your heart and blood vessels stay healthy and reduce stress. Even a 30-minute walk every day can reduce the likelihood of potency problems. In addition, exercises to strengthen muscles twice a week will bring many health benefits.
Check your testosterone levels.
Testosterone levels gradually begin to decline by about thirty. If your testosterone levels get too low, it can affect your sex drive. A blood test can help you find out if you have low testosterone.
Do not use anabolic steroids.
If you are obsessed with taking extra doses of testosterone to build muscle, then be prepared for side effects. Anabolic androgenic steroids significantly affect the activity of the gonads, stopping the production of androgens.
Take care of your emotional state.
When you have constant conflicts at work, relationship problems, your libido may deteriorate. In addition, prolonged stress can lead to decreased potency. Usually this temporary phenomenon disappears with timely treatment of stress. Reduce stress and you will see how your health improves.
See a doctor at the first symptoms of erectile dysfunction.
Sometimes men can have erection problems and this is normal. But if they start to occur more often, do not ignore this signal. You may have certain health problems that cause these problems. The sooner you deal with this, the sooner your sex life will return to normal.
It has been proven that people who are constantly developing intellectually are able to maintain muscle strength longer. The direct link between brain function and muscle determines the quality of sexual life. Stay optimistic, control your stress levels and focus on the most important values in life.
Many diseases can be asymptomatic and do not bother a man. Only timely diagnosis and treatment of diseases in the early stages can completely cure the disease and enjoy all the joys of life until old age. The proper functioning of the reproductive system is the basis of male happiness and the path to success in all spheres of life.
