How to Correctly Understand Male Impotence
Penile erection is a huge project that requires complex neural and endocrine regulation in the body. It is a comprehensive result of nerve activation, arterial blood supply, and cavernous blood storage. Its functional status is influenced by individual mental, psychological, and various social factors. Therefore, if there are issues with the above steps, ED may occur. According to the cause of the disease, it can be roughly divided into psychological ED and organic ED, with some of them being mixed type.
In terms of psychology, erections may become a problem due to psychological trauma, incorrect sex education, disharmony between families and couples, and an unsatisfactory sexual environment during childhood. Once many people have difficulty getting an erection, it can create a huge psychological burden, exacerbating the problem and forming a vicious cycle.
Organic erectile dysfunction accounts for about 50%, mainly including vascular, neurological, endocrine, etc. Vascular factors include arterial and venous ED. Generally speaking, the main manifestation of ED caused by vascular factors is the disappearance of penile erection at night and poor response to injection of vasoactive drugs into the sponge body.
Neurogenic ED is mainly a sexual function problem caused by nerve injury, commonly including hypothalamic pituitary adenoma, local brain injury, such as localized epilepsy, encephalitis, cerebral hemorrhage compression, spinal cord injury, chronic alcoholism, pelvic surgery damage to the surrounding autonomic nervous system, etc.
