What are the effects of drinking on men?

As the head of the family, men often shoulder the responsibility of supporting the family, so they need to work harder at work to get higher pay. Therefore, many male friends will drink some wine after get off work to relieve the pressure of work and enjoy this unique indulgence. So what are the effects of drinking on men? In response to this question, please join me in finding the answer to it.

(1) Men quickly enter a state of inhibition after drinking. If they hastily engage in sexual intercourse during this brief state of excitement, they may become overly excited, reckless, and rude, or even lose control of themselves. This can easily lead to deviations in sexual ability. Since the nervous system that controls sexual ability is in an inhibited state, erectile dysfunction can occur.

(2) Influence of the vascular system. After drinking, people will feel hot and their faces will turn red. Since a large amount of blood is concentrated in the brain and skin blood vessels at this time, if sexual intercourse is performed at this time, the sexual organs will suddenly need a large amount of blood, and there will be a shortage of blood, and the penis will not be able to effectively erect. When the fever and facial flushing subside, a large amount of blood will accumulate in the internal organs, and people will feel cold instead. If sexual intercourse is performed at this time, the sexual organs still cannot get the ideal blood supply, and erectile dysfunction will also occur. Long-term and large-scale drinking can also induce arteriosclerosis. If the penile arteries are hardened and the blood vessels become narrow, the congestion of the corpus cavernosum of the penis will be affected, weakening the erectile function.

(3) Impact on sex hormone metabolism. Data show that after drinking a lot of alcohol, the amount of testosterone in the blood will decrease. On the one hand, alcohol directly interferes with the production of testosterone by the testicles; on the other hand, under the stimulation of alcohol, the liver will speed up the processing of testosterone, and a lot of testosterone will be broken down and converted into other substances. In addition. It has also been found that when men drink more than 40 grams of ethanol per day and drink continuously for many years, the risk of cirrhosis increases. Once cirrhosis occurs, the ability to process testosterone will be weakened, resulting in an increase in estrogen levels in the body, all of which will cause erectile dysfunction.

(4) Impact on overall physical condition. People who drink alcohol for a long time or are often drunk will show signs of weight loss, fatigue, and loss of appetite. In particular, after the alcohol component stimulates the gastrointestinal mucosa, it will seriously hinder the digestive function and cause a decrease in nutritional levels. As the overall physical condition declines, sexual ability will also decline.

(5) Because sexual function is mainly regulated by the central nervous system, excessive alcohol in the body will inhibit the central nervous system and interfere with the reflex conduction pathways stimulated by excitement. Long-term alcohol abuse can reduce the level of male hormones in men's blood, causing testicular atrophy and leading to impotence.

The above paragraphs have given us a good introduction to the effects of drinking on men. I sincerely hope that all my friends can read the above content carefully so that they can be more vigilant and pay more attention to these adverse effects. Of course, I want to tell you that a large amount of alcohol will stimulate our liver, and once the liver is damaged, it will also cause the risk of liver cancer, so don't joke with your own life.
