Strange but true, problems like erectile dysfunction affecting the sexual health of men are more frequent than we can think of. One has to take into account the many men who did not respond to the study, which confirms the figure to be around 40% and thus the final figure would be higher. There could be several reasons for this including emotional factors like stress and depression to factors like advancing age accompanied by reduction of testosterone levels. Some lifestyle factors like smoking, drinking and taking recreational drugs could also be the reason for this.
Anything which hampers blood flow to the penile area can affect erections negatively. To get a rock hard erection, it is imperative that there is normal flow of blood to the penile area.
Smoking is known to cause a phenomenal drop in the number of erections while asleep. This decrement of nighttime erections gives us a clear indication that not all is well and that the penile region is not getting the amount of blood it needs for an erection. The cause of this has been identified by the Lahey Hitchcock Medical Center, Burlington, Massachusetts as excessive smoking. Even when you stop smoking for a day, it can restore normal nighttime erections.
Moreover heavy smoking teenagers are likely to suffer from poor quality semen. Additionally the sperm quality gets further diluted. This not only bars them from becoming fathers but may also involve giving birth to defective children born with genetic abnormalities caused by poor DNA begotten from either parent.
Men who drink regularly and heavily are more likely to get affected with sexual problems than men who drink not that often and this is according to studies done on this topic. This is because alcohol puts the lid on performance and negatively affects libido which can not allow erection.
As such a healthy lifestyle could be highly rewarding when it comes to your sexual life. Regular exercise and good eating habits go a long way in keeping your sexual vigor and health strong. Today there are good herbal aphrodisiacs available which boosts your sex energy by increasing blood flow to the penile area and treats erectile dysfunction.
