A man's ability in bed depends on many factors.Some have a good effect on potency, while others, on the contrary, provoke a decrease in sexual instincts. The power of "combat readiness" in sex is influenced by external factors, a man's age, self-esteem and success in life. Men who have reached certain heights in life have no complexes about their appearance, health and wealth.
They are sure that women always like them. Men with low self-esteem, on the contrary, try not to attract the attention of the fair sex, because they are not sure of their abilities. For sex, they choose not the most active women or completely refuse such activity.
With age, healthy men do not lose their desire, but they need to prepare for sex in advance to restore strength and existing abilities. Even quite successful and healthy men can have difficulties in bed. There are other reasons for this.
Several reasons lead to a significant deterioration of sexual activity and a decrease in erectile function:
- physical and emotional fatigue;
- diabetes, prostatitis and other age-related diseases;
- obesity and sedentary lifestyle;
- lack of sex;
- bad habits.
But there are factors that improve potency:
- regular sex;
- moderate physical activity;
- proper nutrition;
- disease prevention and treatment.
Eliminating negative factors and adding positive factors is a direct path to success in the fight against weak potency.
The effect of age on sexual activity
Natural age affects male potency.A decline in sexual function occurs after 50 years, but deterioration of sexual ability is possible much earlier. In old age, testosterone production decreases, metabolic processes in cells slow down, and a man needs more strength and energy for sex. A man's sexual activity depends on his state of health, the presence of co-morbidities and the desire to keep his body young and healthy.
To improve potency in adulthood, a set of measures is used, the aim of which is to normalize erectile functions:
- massage;
- physiotherapy;
- phytotherapy;
- drug treatment.
Harmfully affects the potency of bad habits and addictions
Drug use in the initial stage causes a feeling of liberation and euphoria during sex.
But gradually, with addiction, psychoactive substances completely destroy the entire body:
- sleep is disturbed;
- nervousness and irritability appear;
- attacks of aggression are replaced by a passive mood;
- chronic diseases worsen;
- loss of interest in sex;
- immunity decreases;
- cardiac disorders appear;
- erection is lost.
Bad habits gradually have a negative effect on the reproductive system and the whole body, unless the addiction to toxic substances is stopped. Even in minimal amounts, they worsen health. Complete abandonment of bad habits does not guarantee 100% sexual health, but reduces the risk of developing sexual dysfunctions.
Addictions such as masturbation or masturbation can affect potency.There is no direct connection between masturbation and potency– It does not reduce erection and does not reduce libido. But psychological sexual dysfunction occurs when a man loses interest in the opposite sex over time and an addiction appears, from which it is then difficult to quit.
Regular self-indulgence has physiological disadvantages:
- ejaculation is disturbed. It happens too fast;
- there is no complete emptying of the vas deferens. The normal sexual process is disturbed.
A regular sex life is more beneficial for emotional and physical satisfaction. This will preserve your sexual health.
Medicines and pills that reduce the level of erection
Treatment of existing diseases with certain drug groups improves health, but potency suffers from such treatment. Medicines for hypertension, painkillers, antidepressants, drugs for allergies and neurological diseases cause the greatest damage to potency. These drugs can slow blood circulation, cause ejaculation problems, and interfere with erections. If male potency suffers as a result of the treatment of one disease, then the drug must be replaced or the treatment regimen changed.
Drugs used as a result of self-medication can also harm sexual functions. It is better to restore potency after visiting a doctor with a prescription.
Do some diseases affect erectile function?
Violation of potency may be associated with short-term or chronic diseases of the body:
| Diseases of the genitourinary system. | Inflammation of the prostate, blood vessels and urethra impairs potency and reduces the function of all genital organs |
| With diseases of the pelvic organs. | Hemorrhoids and hernias also cause impotence by changing bowel and bladder function, causing discomfort for the man |
| With cardiovascular diseases. | With high pressure, the blood vessels of the penis are not completely filled with blood, the penis is not strong enough, and the erection does not last long. Arterial hypertension prevents the use of certain drugs to improve potency. On the other hand, the treatment of this disease with medication provokes an additional deterioration of sexual functions. The doctor decides which drugs to choose for the treatment of two diseases. He also determines the order and dosage of medication. |
| With the presence of infections in the urinary tract. | Infectious diseases are treated with antibiotics and antiviral drugs. These drugs have side effects on the digestive system, microflora and reproductive system. |
Why is intervertebral hernia dangerous?
Intervertebral hernia is dangerous due to serious health complications if timely treatment is not carried out. As a result of the disease, nerve endings are compressed and the transmission of nerve impulses to the spinal and lumbar parts of the spinal cord is disturbed.
As a result, dysfunction of the pelvic organs appears: blood stagnation appears, cell nutrition is disturbed, inflammatory processes in the genitals progress, impotence and infertility appear. Lack of therapy will inevitably lead to bad consequences. It is important to seek medical help in time and undergo a course of treatment.
An inguinal hernia is associated with complications not only in the reproductive system, but it can be fatal.When an inguinal hernia occurs, part of an organ from the abdominal cavity protrudes into the groin area. It can be near the spermatic cord, the scrotum.
Depending on the stage of the disease, a man feels discomfort and pain:
| excruciating pain | lower abdomen |
| swelling | genital area and groin |
| bulging and nodules | in the painful area |
Pathology affects sexual functions with negative consequences: blood circulation and urination are disturbed, sexual desire decreases, potency weakens, infertility develops. The pathology is eliminated by surgery.
Effects of prostatitis on potency and sexual function
A disease such as prostatitis does not affect potency in the best way. The prostate gland produces a secretion that is included in semen, participates in intercourse during ejaculation, and produces the sex hormone testosterone. Prostate inflammation reduces or completely suppresses sexual functions, disrupting the functioning of the entire reproductive system. In the initial stage of the disease, sexual intercourse is possible, but during orgasm, the man experiences pain, so sex becomes less frequent. This leads to urological problems and reduced reproductive function.
Chronic prostatitis leads to complete impotence and fertility problems.After delayed prostate treatment, it is sometimes not possible to restore potency.
Erectile dysfunction due to hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids are a disease that affects the colon and anus. Cracks and nodules appear on the walls and mucous membranes, which cause pain, burning and discomfort. Going to the toilet turns into torture. The prostate gland in men is located next to the colon. When the colon becomes inflamed, it puts pressure on the prostate and interferes with its function. This is an additional risk of developing prostatitis.
In the urogenital system, tissue nutrition is disturbed and sexual functions are limited. New diseases appear in the reproductive system. At any stage of the disease, it is necessary to consult a doctor and diagnose the body in order to prescribe the correct treatment. A complicated stage of hemorrhoids can cause a complete loss of potency and irreversible consequences for the body.
Why is diabetes interfering with your sex life?
The nervous and circulatory systems are the main "workers" in the reproductive system during sexual intercourse. If a man has diabetes, the blood sugar level rises, the activity of nerves and blood vessels is blocked, the body's nutrition, blood pressure and breathing are disturbed. The heart works under strain, blood vessels become clogged, metabolic processes are inhibited, testosterone production decreases, and potency decline progresses. Fortunately, this disease is treatable and it is possible to control blood sugar levels and achieve a healthy potency.
To do this, you need to visit a doctor and choose the appropriate medication for therapy in order to maintain potency and live a fulfilling sex life at any age.
What else affects male potency?
Male potency is affected by lifestyle and diet.Obesity develops, intoxication of the body with harmful substances, sedentary work, psychologically unstable state, lack of sexual intercourse - all this leads to a decrease in sexual abilities and sexual desires. Excessive involvement in power sports also provokes disorders in the functioning of the genital organs. A man's body needs rest before sex, and during sports, all energy is directed to training. It takes time to regain energy and stamina.
Sexual desire and potency suffer from it. Often, professional athletes use doping drugs to maintain strength and endurance. Sports drugs reduce the production of male sex hormones, which also leads to bad results in bed. The only thing to remember when engaging in sports hobbies is that physical activity is only beneficial if the correct training and rest regime is followed.
Under the influence of negative factors, the body ages quickly, cells atrophy, diseases progress, the man becomes weak and cannot have sex. By providing your body with additional nutrition and preventing disease, you can maintain your existing abilities and prolong your sexual health.

Coffee can increase vitality, energy, give strength and vigor. In general, coffee has a beneficial effect on health in moderation.
