Why can't men get an erection?

Sexual life plays a very important role in a harmonious marriage. It is not only a tool for regulating the physiological needs of both parties, but also a way to enhance feelings. However, with the increasing pressure of life, irregular work and rest schedules and living habits have caused more and more people to have sexual problems. It not only destroys the atmosphere and opportunities for men and women to enjoy sexual happiness, but also harms men's self-esteem. Erectile dysfunction is a particularly common disease among these diseases. So why can't men have an erection? Let me introduce the relevant knowledge to everyone.

1. Nervous system diseases: hypothalamus-pituitary tumors or tumors in other parts of the body, localized brain damage, such as localized epileptic encephalitis, cerebral hemorrhage, compression, spinal cord damage, spinal cord tumors, chronic alcoholism, multiple sclerosis, pelvic surgery that damages the peripheral autonomic nerves, etc., can cause impotence.

2. Psychoneural factors: Sexual psychological trauma in childhood, or lack of sexual knowledge in newlyweds, with tension and anxiety, or emotional discord between husband and wife, disharmonious family relationships; or bad habits, such as excessive masturbation resulting in reduced sensitivity of the penis, mental tension, and excessive burden on the mind, which can lead to the cause of impotence; excessive mental or physical effort, or adverse mental stimulation, such as excessive depression, sadness, fear, etc., or unbridled indulgence in sex, excessive sex life, etc. can all cause dysfunction of the cerebral cortex and lead to the cause of impotence.

3. Endocrine diseases: such as diabetes, pituitary insufficiency, testicular damage or dysfunction, or hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, etc. can all lead to the cause of impotence.

Long-term drinking will gradually cause impotence on you

How does alcohol cause ED? Let's analyze it from the following aspects:

The first is the effect 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 testicles to produce testosterone, and 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 transferred into other substances. Moreover, people who drink alcohol for a long time will inevitably develop alcoholic cirrhosis to a certain extent. Although the ability to process testosterone will be weakened, the estrogen level in the body will increase. In short, the decrease of testosterone or the increase of estrogen will cause erectile dysfunction.

Secondly, it affects the nervous system: drinking will briefly excite the cerebral cortex "headquarters", but it will soon turn into an inhibitory state. If you have hasty sex in this short-term state of excitement, you will be too excited, reckless and rough, or even lose your composure, which will easily lead to deviations in sexual ability and the blame of your spouse, which often lays the root of ED caused by poor mental and psychological state. If you have sex after the state of excitement turns into inhibition, the appearance of ED is more reasonable because the nervous system that controls sexual ability is in an inhibitory state.

The third is the influence of the vascular system: just after drinking, people will feel hot and their faces will turn red. Because a lot of blood is concentrated in the brain and skin blood vessels at this time, if you have sex at this time, the sexual organs will suddenly need a lot of blood, and there will be a shortage of blood. How can the penis have a good erection? When the fever and facial flushing subside, a lot of blood will accumulate in the internal organs, and people will feel cold. If you have sex at this time, the sexual organs still cannot get the ideal blood supply, and ED will occur.

Finally, there is the impact on the overall physical condition: people who drink 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 a result, the overall physical condition will deteriorate, and sexual ability will also decline. It is not surprising if erectile dysfunction occurs.

The above is the reason why men cannot have an erection. Male friends with relevant symptoms can analyze their symptoms according to the above introduction. In addition, it is recommended that male friends should take care of their health, quit bad living habits, wear cotton underwear to protect sexual organs, avoid or eat less irritating food, and stay up less late to ensure normal detoxification of the liver and kidneys.
