What should men do if their sexual function declines after they turn 40?

As the saying goes, 40 is the prime of sexual desire. However, with the increase of age, many men's sexual desires are increasingly insufficient. There are four reasons for this:

Mental factors: Couples should have a happy and joyful mood. If they have psychological problems and many negative factors for a long time, it may cause low libido. Many people have a history of sexual abuse and feel guilty. They are pessimistic about life, have repeated setbacks at work, are anxious about interpersonal relationships, and have family tragedies, which can lead to depression and injustice, which can all lead to low libido. Secondly, long-term sex and complicated labor, especially using the brain, can also lead to low libido. This is especially true for men in their forties. They may have a successful career but are overworked, or they may be depressed because of work failure. These are all key reasons for the decline in libido.

Drug factors: Long-term use of some drugs can also lead to decreased libido. Common ones include sedatives and sleeping pills such as sedatives, chlordiazepoxide, barbiturates, and methaqualone; antihistamines such as diphenhydramine and promethazine; anti-gastric spasm drugs such as atropine, probenfen, and 654-2; drugs for treating gastric and duodenal ulcers such as cimetidine; and antihypertensive drugs such as reserpine.

Pathological factors: Suffering from urinary system diseases, discomfort during sexual intercourse, which in turn suppresses sexual desire, such as chronic prostatitis, epididymitis, urethritis, etc. Others such as endocrine diseases and various systemic chronic diseases can also affect sexual desire due to insufficient androgen metabolism or metabolic disorders.

Bad habits: chronic alcohol poisoning caused by long-term alcoholism, chronic nicotine poisoning caused by long-term heavy smoking, and drug use (marijuana, cigarettes, heroin, etc.) can also lead to low libido.

As long as you can properly adjust the above factors, I believe you will restore your newly upgraded self and return to your original glory.

What should men do if their sexual desire decreases? 1. Deep sleep. Sleep quality is one of the most important factors in improving sexual desire. Poor rest can easily lead to systemic nervous system disorders, thus affecting male sexual function. In terms of sleeping time, it is recommended to ensure 7 to 8 hours every night. In terms of sleep, ensure deep sleep and do not be interrupted.

2. Couples massage. There are several benefits to couples massage: First, massage is a process of intimate interaction between couples, and kneading and other postures can help arouse each other's sexual desire. Second, couples massage can help release stress and anxiety, especially after a busy day at work. Prepare massage oils, light candles, and play soft music, which can help create romance and increase sexual desire.

3. Eat the right food. A healthy diet helps prevent weight gain, maintain your figure, and improve your confidence. It is important to eat foods that enhance libido, such as apples, avocados, and so on. In addition, fruits and vegetables such as blueberries, purple grapes, and cabbage contain strong antioxidant proanthocyanidins, which are helpful for improving men's reproductive health.

4. Actively exercise. Exercise can promote blood circulation throughout the body and increase blood volume in the reproductive organs. Fitness exercises can also help improve the body shape, enhance self-esteem and confidence.

5. Exercise to relieve stress. Meditation, listening to music, reading, etc. are all good ways to relieve stress. Excessive work stress can easily cause the body to produce too much stress hormone aldosterone, thereby reducing testosterone levels. Spending 15 minutes a day exercising to relax the body and mind can help improve sexual drive and restore male sexual function.
