Understanding Men's Sexual Health Problems

By Marc H Nedder


Problems involving men's sex lives have always been a taboo topic for most of them. They do not talk about it with their relatives, their friends and they will lose ten fingers first before they start talking to a doctor about their sexual health issues. What they WILL do is to self-medicate, seeing they are the masters of the Band Aid approach. This is after hey have done research about the symptoms they have, of course. These self-medicating efforts will soon turn to frustration when the meds they tried do not work as well as they expected.

This is why it is important to ensure that the information they gather about these health issues are reliable and accurate. A clear understanding of their sexual problem is the only way they will find a treatment or medication that will work. And Erectile Dysfunction is the most common sexual health problem among a lot of men.

Although this is a condition that mostly affects men in their fifties and above, it isn't uncommon for younger men to not "get it up" at times. So what indeed, causes ED? Doctors say that Erectile Dysfunction can be caused by a number of factors. The first has something to do with lack of nutrients in the body. This is why you commonly find Erectile dysfunction treatment or medications that are "reinforced" if you will, with vitamins and nutrients to help improve sexual performance. Another possible cause for erectile dysfunction in men is stress. Increased amounts of stress can cause anxiety and other psychological problems in men and this can greatly affect their performance in bed. This is the reason some men consult with a therapist, hoping that eliminating emotional and psychological problems can help them enhance their sex lives.

Obesity is another cause of erectile dysfunction. This is the reason that apart from taking ED treatment or medications, doctors recommend men to exercise regularly to shed off excess pounds. When you lose all that extra weight, your body can function normally, which results in better sexual performance. You don't have to send hours in a gym every day to stay fit, this is something you need to understand.

Even day to day activities like walking the dog or riding a bike to the store when buying a quart of milk can do a lot to shed excess weight and keep you healthy. The point is to stay active, to burn those excess calories, sedentary lifestyles lead to excessive weight gain, which causes problems in sexual performance.
