It is very difficult for men to admit, even to each other, that all is not well with "male power". Therefore, you can consult a man in a urologist's office only when the situation has progressed to unbearable pain or a complete lack of potency.
In addition, a man prefers to buy another "miracle cure" on the Internet rather than a visit to the doctor, which only aggravates the problem. But to preserve male strength until old age, you just need to know a few secrets.
The most important secret is periodic visits to the doctor and preventive examinations. Only in this case can the disease, the consequence of which is a weakening of potency, be diagnosed at the initial stage, which means that its development can be avoided with almost 100% guarantee.
According to world statistics from the WHO, a decrease in potency in 60% of cases is associated with diseases of various organs and systems. In 30% of cases, psychology is to blame - fears and "bad" behavior of women during contact. And only 10% of cases are associated with external factors that have nothing to do with illness or psychology.
If the first two factors arise, only a specialist will help you, the main thing is not to delay the visit to the doctor. If a man is "ashamed" to come to the clinic and indirectly "confess" to the girls at the reception his masculine incompetence, then you can find a specialist and make an appointment with him.
If there are no health problems, but the potency is "no longer the same", then it is possible that the reason is one of the following factors.
Alcohol
Alcohol excites desire, but makes it impossible to realize it. Just 50 grams of strong alcohol per day and your potency will soon no longer be optimal. To metabolize alcohol, the liver actively uses the male hormone testosterone and converts it to the female hormone estrogen. As we age, the harmful effects of alcohol only intensify.
Smoking
Nicotine extinguishes desire. A long-term experiment carried out by American scientists, involving 3, 000 men aged 25 to 35, showed that men who smoke on average have sex less than 6 times a month and non-smokers 2 times more often.
Life behind the wheel
Daily road jolts lead to poor circulation in the genitals and congestive inflammation of the prostate. If it is not possible to drive on good roads, choose cars that protect against harmful vibrations.
Soy
Men should eat no more than 100 grams of soy products per day, as they contain phytoestrogens, which are similar in structure and action to the female hormone estrogen. Their excess alters the quality of sperm and can cause infertility.
Scent
Perfumes and creams, or more precisely the phthalate chemicals they contain, can cause impotence - this is the conclusion reached by Harvard. Use organic cosmetics, treat yourself and your loved ones to chemical-free perfume.
Power must be fed
Take with food "reproductive" vitamins E and A, B vitamins, which improve the conduction of impulses along the nerves, thereby increasing sensations, including sexual ones.
Pomegranate juice contains antioxidants that dilate blood vessels and improve blood supply to the penis.
In California, 53 volunteers aged 21 to 70 suffering from erection problems drank pomegranate juice every day for a month. After this treatment, more than half of them said they had found a new lease of life in love.
In Britain and Germany, scientists danced with volunteers and proved that dancing improves potency. During dancing, blood flows more actively to the genitals. In terms of effectiveness, dancing is compared to the effect of modern drugs.
Daily consumption of 100 grams of dark chocolate per day can improve blood circulation in the vessels and increase desire.
Strawberries and raspberries are the right attributes for a romantic evening. These berries are rich in zinc, which actively participates in the synthesis of the main male hormone, testosterone.
An erection also depends on training your muscles. Go to the gym - physical strength and endurance improve potency and libido.
The higher a man's social status, the more active he is in his sex life. Promotion increases power, but sudden retirement, on the contrary, has a detrimental effect on it.
And them?
According to experts, around 150 million men worldwide experience erection difficulties. Moreover, dissatisfaction with an erection not only impoverishes a man's sex life, but also reduces his self-esteem.
Men from different countries have different attitudes towards this problem. For the French, for example, erectile power is more important than for the Germans. And at the same time, it is among the French who are most dissatisfied with their "firmness" - 72%, among residents of Switzerland they are 61%, and in Great Britain - 51%.
