Impotence or erectile dysfunction is defined as a man who has difficulty or an inability to achieve or sustain an erection for the time required to have an orgasm. It can be reoccurring or a constant problem, and it can have a devastating effect on a man's personal and sexual relationship.
Men who suffer from an erectile dysfunction often experience a loss of confidence in the bedroom, which can further affect their sexual performance. Their libidos can decrease and feelings of depression, stress, anxiety and even anger can also surface. This can be especially true for men under the age of forty, who are expected to be able to perform at their sexual best. Their inability to perform can lead to long lasting emotional issues and cause problems to develop in the relationship. In most instances an erectile dysfunction is treatable, and here are some tips to help both you and your partner keep your sex life satisfying and happy.
What the Study Revealed?
A recent study was published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine and showed that 26 percent of men who were under the age of 40, and sexually active, had a form of an erectile dysfunction. This was even with these men having healthy weights and normal levels of the male sexual health, testosterone. The study also revealed that out of the 26 percent, younger men who frequently used tobacco products and abused illegal drugs and alcohol experienced more problems with erectile dysfunctions and problems with ejaculation. In fact these unhealthy habits caused severe erectile problems in 48.8 percent of younger men, compared to only 40 percent of men over the age of 40.How to Cope with Erectile Dysfunction?
