- The frequency of sexual contact for adolescent males ranges from approximately three times per day to once per month;
- For people aged 30-45, having sex once a week does not mean a decrease in sexual potency - only if it occurs less frequently will doctors recommend deviations from normal levels;
- Men under 30 years old should have sex 3 times a week, men between 30 and 60 years old should have sex 2 to 3 times a week, and men over 60 years old should have sex 3 times a month;
- Psychological causes of impotence account for only one in five cases; the most common cause is poor physical health.
Signs of deviation from standard effectiveness
There are almost no spontaneous erections, as well as psychogenic (from thoughts) and reflexive (from touch), the penis stops "getting up" in the morning. The most likely cause is vascular disease: atherosclerosis, hypertension, coronary heart disease. Venous disease is possible: Blood from an erection usually does not stay in the erect penis but immediately leaves through the dorsal veins. Smoking worsens blood vessel problems: A smoker's penile arteries narrow by half, which means erections are half as weak. How to help yourself:If you feel unwell, you need to measure your blood pressure. If you notice changes in your blood pressure, seek medical attention immediately. It is worth changing your diet, minimizing fat and fast carbohydrates (sugar and products containing it) and definitely quitting smoking. If you are unable to quit smoking on your own, you should consult a psychotherapist or first use alternative treatments, such as nicotine patches. With blood flowing out of the vein, doctors often recommend cutting out the leaking dorsal vein. Spontaneous and morning erections are fine, but during stroking they do not occur or disappear with the first friction. This looks like a classic case of psychogenic ED, related to self-doubt, anxious anticipation of failure, or fear of not being able to satisfy your partner. Effectiveness can also be compromised due to continued overexertion and lack of sleep. problem solved:You need to let your body rest. Don't believe that great people sleep 4 hours a day and their quality of life is not affected. It's unlikely that you're solving a global problem worth neglecting your health and natural needs. Getting 7-8 hours of sleep a day allows your body to recover and produce the testosterone it needs for full sex. Arguments and negativity in relationships with girls can also affect effectiveness, so it's best to limit those exchanges that don't bring joy and pleasure. Attraction occurs less and less frequently, and it takes effort on your part to achieve an erection. Lack of male sex hormones - androgens, mainly testosterone. Reasons for this include old age, obesity, excessive alcohol consumption, or anabolic steroids. Many athletes are deprived of their normal abilities in the pursuit of peak performance; anabolic steroids act similarly to testosterone, and their use causes a decrease in the production of this hormone in the body. Essentially, taking anabolic steroids is chemical castration. How to restore your libido:Get rid of excess weight, but you must do it without the help of chemical "crutches", i. e. drugs that quickly burn fat and increase muscle mass. A good solution is to visit an endocrinologist for testing instead of blindly trying to change your hormonal balance. Don’t forget that the maximum safe daily dose of alcohol is equivalent to 30ml of pure alcohol. The attraction is present, but the erection comes on slowly and disappears quickly. Nerve conduction appears to be disrupted; this occurs after diabetes, radiculitis, or spinal cord injury, when the area of the spinal cord that carries sexual arousal signals from the brain to the penis is affected. How to increase effectiveness:Visit an andrologist and neurologist to get rid of radiculitis and use vibration stimulation for auxiliary treatment. The receptors on the glans penis are very sensitive to vibrations, and the excitement generated therein is transmitted to the cavernosal nerves of the penis, making it possible to bring the organ into a state of excitement even in difficult situations. Erections weaken, persistent pain occurs in the lower abdomen, and urination is frequent and small. The symptoms are very similar to an attack of prostatitis. Although the sexual arousal mechanism itself is not compromised, sex simply fades into the background due to poor health. By the way, prostatitis often begins with abnormally rapid ejaculation. However, similar symptoms may also indicate a sexually transmitted infection. what to do:See a urologist to have your prostate checked and get tested for STDs. You should not put off seeing a doctor: sexually transmitted infections can trigger prostatitis, and in its advanced stages, irreversible changes occur in the prostate tissue, which can lead to incurable impotence. In its early stages, prostate inflammation can be treated successfully and almost painlessly.
