Men can't get an erection after drinking

Erection is a normal physiological phenomenon in every normal male body, because only when a man has a full erection can he have a normal sexual life. If a man cannot have a normal erection, it is a common male disease, impotence. In addition to the inability to have an erection caused by impotence, there is another reason in the male body that affects erection, that is, after being drunk. Why can't a man have an erection after being drunk?

1. Effects of drinking on the nervous system

Drinking alcohol will briefly excite the cerebral cortex "headquarters", but they will soon switch to an inhibited state. If you have hasty sex in this short-term state of excitement, you will be too excited, reckless and rough, or even lose control, and your sexual ability will easily deviate, and you will be easily criticized by your spouse, which often lays the root of erectile dysfunction caused by poor mental and psychological state. If you have sex after the state of excitement turns to inhibition, the nervous system that controls sexual ability is in an inhibited state, and it is reasonable that you cannot have an erection.

2. Effects of drinking on the vascular system

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 genitals 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 erectile dysfunction will occur.

3. Effects on sex hormone metabolism

Data show that after drinking a lot of alcohol, the amount of testosterone in the blood will decrease, and the body's ability to process estrogen will also weaken, leading to an increase in estrogen, which will cause erectile dysfunction.

4. Impact on physical fitness

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 a result, the overall physical condition will deteriorate, and sexual ability will also decline. It is not surprising if erectile dysfunction occurs.
