What are the types of male impotence? How to judge the type of impotence by erectile status
An erection is a sign of men's "erection". The data shows that men have erections about 3 times every night, and many doctors distinguish the types of male impotence according to this method.
People will experience several periods of rapid eye movement during sleep. At this time, the central nervous system will transmit impulses to the sacral plexus, resulting in increased arterial blood flow and penis erection. This process can be seen as oxygenating the penis. The normal erection time should exceed 60 minutes. If it is less than 30 minutes, it can be regarded as abnormal. Night erection is one of the important indicators to distinguish impotence. Impotence can be divided into organic and mental. Most patients with organic impotence have erections at night due to neurological and vascular diseases.
Of course, there are also a few patients who have erections at night. The incidence rate of mental impotence patients is related to psychological factors such as anxiety, depression, and mental tension, so the nervous tissue is not damaged. In this case, the penis of most patients can erect normally at night, because there is not so much mental burden when sleeping at night, so the penis will erect.
If the patient cannot erect when awake and sleeping, it indicates organic impotence, and should go to the hospital in time to actively treat organic diseases; If you can have an erection, it may be mental impotence. In addition to active treatment, patients should adjust their mood and maintain a positive attitude, which is more conducive to the cure of the disease. During the test, men can wear a paper ring on their penis before going to bed to find out whether the penis has an erection at night.
Of course, whether a man is really impotent or not, it is better to go to the hospital and have a comprehensive examination by the doctor to determine the correctness of the condition.
