Male strength consists in sufficient tension of the penis and achieving an erection to perform a full-fledged sexual act. The main role in this is played by the amount of testosterone hormone in the body. Testosterone is secreted by the Leydig cells of the testes, and the less it is produced, the weaker the erection.
It is possible to stimulate the production of testosterone in a man's body by knowing the reasons why its production decreases or increases. They can be physiological and psychological.
A man's age is an important factor, because in healthy men under the age of 35-40, the causes of impotence may be more related even to psychological barriers. In men over 40 years old, such dysfunctions are often the result of hormonal failure or various diseases.
Reasons for a decrease in testosterone levels in a man's body can be:
- damage to the intervertebral discs
- myelodysplasia of the spine
- peripheral toxic neuropathies,
- Parkinson's disease,
- multiple sclerosis,
- excess weight,
- chronic stress, depression,
- alcohol and drug abuse,
- taking tranquilizers and antidepressants, steroid anabolics,
- post-traumatic and postoperative consequences.
Men who have ureaplasmosis and other mycoplasma infections in the body, in the absence of treatment, also risk a gradual decrease in male potency. Endocrine causes can be diseases of the thyroid gland and pituitary gland. Diagnoses such as hypogonadism, prolactinoma and sarcoidosis affect not only erectile function, but also reduce sexual desire.
In addition, a man's fear of sexual impotence, as well as self-doubt and problems in relations with his partner, seriously affect potency.
In order to determine the exact causes of insufficient potency, it is necessary to consult an andrologist. And following his instructions to restore the lost male power. In addition to drug treatment and procedures within the walls of the clinic, you can also independently strengthen potency at home.
