Today I want to write on a somewhat scabrous topic for us men because it is sensitive to our ego and emotions. This post I wrote it in Spanish this time I'm publishing it for everyone in English I hope it helps.
This condition is not only affecting men of age but also occurs in young people.
I talk about erectile dysfunction.
Erectile dysfunction is not a joke. It can affect any man, of any age, but of course it is much more prevalent among older men.
Once you reach age forty, you are more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction. It is important that you understand that not all cases of sexual dysfunction are an Erectile Dysfunction problem.
At some point, all men face a sporadic performance problem. When it does, you're going to feel bad about it.
You are going to feel a failure and, let's face it, as if you were less man, but if it does not happen consistently and for a period of time, it is not erectile dysfunction.
Here are some of the most common causes of erectile dysfunction:
Diet, exercise and lifestyle.
The sad truth is that in a significant number of cases, erectile dysfunction is a disease that we cause ourselves.
Even when these things are not the direct cause of Erectile Dysfunction, it is almost certainly factors contributing to worsen the disease.
It is a large and expanding category that covers many things, but in summary, this is what you should know.
Eating lots of green leafy vegetables, whole grains, oysters, watermelon, and blueberries (actually, almost any fruit will do) will give your body everything it needs to improve the quality of your erections; While reducing the consumption of processed foods, cigarettes and alcohol will give you greater benefits.
Add a healthy dose of exercise at least three times a week, and you're on your way to better sexual health!
The medicines you take
It is certain that you have seen several medicines promoted in the television. The funny part about these ads is that they spend almost the same amount of time talking about the side effects of the latest "wonderful drugs" than they talk about their supposed benefits.
Unfortunately, many of the drugs on the market today that are designed to treat various diseases have side effects that include degradation of male sexual performance. The most common are blood pressure medications, but there are many others.
The good news is that in many cases, there are often alternatives (but not always) to medications with these side effects. If so, your doctor may prescribe a replacement to help you alleviate the problem.
Your big brain hurts your little brain
Many of the causes of erectile dysfunction are actually psychological. Understand that this is not the same as saying that everything is in your mind, because it is not so.
Psychological problems can easily lead to a variety of very real physical ailments. If this surprises you, you should not.
Stress can lead to heart disease, so why other psychological problems can not cause erectile dysfunction? It is a fairly common and well understood phenomenon.
In fact, stress is one of the main causes of erectile dysfunction, which makes it a particularly detestable disease (because it can also cause heart problems, so it hits you twice).
However, before stress kills you, it will impact your sex life in an important, and completely negative, way.
Our modern society is replete to the point of overflowing with stress triggers. We worked too many hours. We do not take enough vacations, and even when we do, we tend to take the work with us, thanks to the arrival of smartphones, which are a blessing and a misfortune.
Yes, they allow us to keep in touch with friends and family no matter where in the world we are, but it also means that we tend not to ever unplug. We need that. We need time to relax and let go. Sure, you can run at full speed for a while, but if you do too much, you will wear out.
If you keep moving beyond that, your problems will only get worse over time. Why would you want to do that to yourself? It just does not make sense.
Depression
Depression is another common cause of erectile dysfunction, and let's face it, when you're depressed, sex is the last thing you think about.
Stress is a particularly unpleasant cause of erectile dysfunction, because most of the available antidepressants only make erectile dysfunction worse.
Depression is also treacherous on another front, because it is easy to fall into the trap of a negative message towards oneself, which is reinforced more and more.
What we mean by this is that when you are depressed, your self-esteem is low (by definition). If you try to have sex, your low self-esteem could lead to performance problems. Then, when you can not perform sexually, this further lowers your self-esteem, which increases the likelihood of future sexual performance problems.
Once you've fallen into that trap, it's hard to get out of it.
This is a series of publications that I will be doing in Steemit, I hope it was helpful and I only ask you to help me with your vote or sharing this post so that other men benefit from reading it.
A hug and see you soon.
