Impotence (Sexual dysfunction)

Impotence is the most common form of sexual dysfunction in men. It is also termed as erectile dysfunction, which is the inability of men to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough to complete satisfactory sexual intercourse.

Erectile dysfunction can happen to men at any age. This type of sexual dysfunction may affect a young a man in his twenties or an old man in his sixties. However, men in the age group 40-70 years are more likely to have this type of sexual dysfunction.

With several different treatments for Erectile dysfunction available on the market, making the right choice in treatment is a task best left to trained medical professionals. If you are suffering from impotence, you should schedule a consultation with a doctor to find the exact cause behind your condition and get a proper prescription for the right impotence pill.

What are causes of erectile dysfunction?

There are primarily two causes of erectile dysfunction in men – physiological and psychological. Your doctor will prescribe a male impotence treatment for you only after evaluating which of the above two factors is the cause behind it.

Erectile dysfunction can occur in men due to damage to the tissues in the penis, which include nerves, arteries, muscles or fibrous tissues. In some cases, the damage to the penis can occur due to surgery, which may be for treating prostate enlargement or bladder cancer.

Some medical conditions may also cause erectile dysfunction in men. These include kidney disease, diabetes, cardiovascular disease or alcoholism. Sometimes, physical injury to penis may also result in erectile dysfunction.

Erectile dysfunction can also happen in men who take medicines such as blood pressure pills or anti-depressants. Apart from these physiological factors, men also experience erectile dysfunction due to psychological factors.

The most common psychological factors which cause erectile dysfunction in men are anxiety, stress, depression, guilty feeling, low self-esteem, and worries about sexual performance. Men who smoke may also suffer from erectile dysfunction after smoking for a long period.

If you are suffering from erectile dysfunction or any other form of sexual dysfunction, then you should consult your GP as the first line of action for male impotence treatment.
