LOSS OF MALE POTENCY & ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION…A nightmare for all males!
Male potency and the ability to have an erection is considered one of the most important subjects that concern the vast majority of men, and a vast number of many international studies and research reached the important, and alarming at the same time, fact: men`s ability to have a normal erection has been on the decline slope during the recent era because of increasing pressures of daily life and its negative impact on men and their psychological status, plus the unhealthy modern lifestyles that have a negative impact on the health of men, including, but not limited to, lack of physical activity, smoking and poor food choices.
In general, the causes of erectile weakness in men may be either as a result of psychological factors (e.g. excessive stress, persistent anxiety and chronic depression) or due to organic factors, such as diabetes, hypertension, atherosclerosis, neurological and heart diseases, disorders of male hormone (testosterone), as well the intake of certain medications with an adverse effect on erectile function. In many cases, erectile dysfunction is a result of several factors combined. For example, loss of erection due to diabetes or high blood pressure and cholesterol along with prolonged exposure to stress and smoking.
The man who starts to suffer from weak erection is very distressed and usually goes through several stages, namely the stage of doubt and denial, then the psychological trauma associated with the realization of the truth, and finally the stage of recognizing the existence of a problem and striving seriously to solve it and this last stage is very important, but access to it by some men is not easy.
Despite the scientific breakthroughs in treatment and existence of effective medical solutions, many men with weak erection are often reluctant to visit the specialized doctor and receive the appropriate management. Studies have shown that out of every ten men with erectile dysfunction, less than half seriously seek medical advice. This could be attributed to several reasons, most notable are fears of embarrassment and losing face, ego-related conflict, and the misconception that there is no radical treatment for the problem.
Erectile dysfunction is a multifaceted problem, but it can be effectively treated. The key to success is to overcome the sadness and the accompanying negative feeling and to insist on getting the necessary medical treatment. The benefits behind a man`s insistence on receiving the proper medical care extends beyond the restoration of his erection, it has a positive impact on other aspects of his life, notably the restoration of self-confidence and becoming enthusiastic and eager to make radical positive lifestyle such as trying to overcome stress and mental strain, quitting smoking, and losing the extra weight through a healthy diet and regular exercise. All this can improve the overall quality of life.
For all of this, it is important to consult the experienced medical professional who will diagnose the cause(s) and provide the appropriate treatment plan to restore potency. Always remember that this health problem is very common and that its treatment options nowadays are more advanced and more decisive than ever.
With the availability of treatment, whether natural methods or advanced medical treatments, and with giving full consideration to the privacy of men and their personal needs, there is no longer a justification for suffering in silence.
With my sincere wishes for a healthy life,
