As men grow older, they may find it difficult to achieve and maintain an erection. Sexual responses may become less intense and slower due to growing age. The male sex hormone “testosterone” decreases and testicular tissue mass decreases as well. Moreover, the tubes that carry semen become less elastic and the rate of sperm cell production decreases.
There are other physical and psychological factors that can lead to impotence. Physical factors include chronic illnesses such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, neurological problems, HIV and AIDS, Peyronie’s disease, kidney failure, medications, hormonal imbalances and smoking. Psychological factors include mental disorders such as tension, anxiety, depression, panic disorder, schizophrenia, performance anxiety, negative feelings, personality disorders and disliking for your partner.
Treatment includes aerobic exercises, herbal therapy, mechanical methods (an external vacuum pump is used to attain erection), medications, injection therapy and sexual enhancement products. An herbal therapy is quite effective in treating impotence. Moreover, consumption of zinc rich foods plays an important role in maintaining the health of male reproductive system.
