Impotence is a powerful enemy of middle-aged and elderly men. For a long time, people have always had the wrong idea that impotence in middle-aged and elderly men is not preventable. However, contemporary medical research confirms that impotence has nothing to do with age.
Most people who come to see impotence after the age of 60 are organic, that is, caused by disease; However, there are still cases of mental impotence. According to the view of modern science, old age does not mean the loss of erectile function. Human sexual ability still exists at the age of 60, 70 and 80. The love and sex life of the elderly is both possible and should be understood, and society and family should be helped.
When people get old, they will get sick, but not all chronic diseases will affect their sexual ability; On the contrary, the elderly who have intimate partnerships and often have caress and sexual activities are slower physically and mentally than those who are lonely.
A common misconception is that when people are old, they will inevitably lose their sexual ability (erectile ability), so some elderly people will automatically stop sexual activity. This is part of the reason for mental impotence in the elderly. Another superstitious view is that men have a limited number of erections, all of which can no longer be erect.
The physical strength of people over 60 is really not as good as before. The existence of aging is a fact. People aged 70 can't run 100 meters as fast as those aged 30. When people are old, their response to sexual stimulation is slow, and erection takes longer, especially when they are physically tired or depressed. It's like old people running slowly. Men are more excited during sexual intercourse than when they are young, and the penis erection should not be prolonged. In other words, the first erection may take several hours or more to obtain a new erection, but these cannot be considered as impotence, but normal physiological changes.
Impotence is very common. According to a random sampling survey, 52% of men aged 40-70 admitted erectile dysfunction, and 10% of them could not erect at all. Is impotence an inevitable phenomenon after men get old, or is it more complicated than that?
Male impotence has nothing to do with aging, but it is closely related to diseases often associated with aging. For example, about 70% of impotence is caused by arteriosclerosis and hypertension. Those drugs that lower blood pressure will cause erectile dysfunction after entering the male genitals; Radiographic diagnosis of prostate surgery and rectal surgery can also lead to impotence; The problem of hormone secretion is certainly not a big problem, but it is also an important cause of erectile dysfunction. Other diseases, such as chronic kidney disease, can also lead to impotence. Almost all people who suffer from chronic kidney disease and are not well diagnosed have genital erectile dysfunction. Pelvic surgery can sometimes cut off nerves and lead to impotence. Half of diabetes patients also have erectile dysfunction. In addition, many drugs used to diagnose diseases such as hypertension, allergic reactions, depression, ulcers and poor appetite also have a bad reaction to impotence.
