What is potency?
Sexual potency in men is a term that characterizes male sexuality and the ability to implement sexual intercourse. It is determined by the speed and fullness of the erection, the duration of sexual intercourse and its features. This concept cannot be equated with the presence of sexual attraction and the number of sexual acts. In relation to the female sex, such a term is almost not used. A healthy man can maintain the ability to complete sexual intercourse to natural death, since male menopause does not depend on age, but has its own causes.
Probable signs of good potency in men:
- normal weight, medium height;
- developed, but not pumped muscles;
- skin without acne and defects, with normal hair;
- quick reaction to irritants, good coordination of movements;
- beautiful smell;
- high mental abilities and sense of humor;
- calm and balance;
- self -confidence;
- low timbre of voice;
- Some negligence in clothes and appearance.
Despite the widespread opinion, baldness is not a sign of good or poor potency.
Factors that have a negative impact on potency:
- age;
- sedentary lifestyle, sedentary work;
- smoking and abuse of alcohol;
- neuropsychiatric disorders, suppressed emotional state;
- taking some drugs: psychotropic, against high pressure, antitumor;
- diseases of the cardiovascular system, for example, atherosclerosis;
- Endocrine diseases: diabetes mellitus, thyroid pathology, decrease in the secretion of sex hormones;
- brain tumors;
- diseases of the genitourinary system;
- infections that are transmitted sexually: ureaplasmosis, mycoplasmosis;
- hypothermia or overheating;
- taking steroid hormones during bodybuilding;
- obesity;
- irregular sex life;
- injuries.
What is erectile dysfunction?
Erectile dysfunction (impotence) is a disorder of the reproductive system in which a man is not able to commit sexual intercourse as a result of insufficient increase and hardening of the penis, as well as inability to maintain an erection for a long time. The term "impotence" in medicine is practically not used today, as it is inaccurate and outdated. Erectile dysfunction is psychogenic, organic and mixed. In 80% of cases, it is caused by various diseases and is organic. However, men tend to write off their sexual problems for failures at work and in the family, so only 10% of men who have potency problems seek medical help.
Symptoms of organic erectile dysfunction:
- The disease begins gradually.
- Night spontaneous erections are absent.
- Erection disorders are systematic.
- Normal sexual attraction and ejaculation.
Symptoms of psychogenic erectile dysfunction:
- The disease begins suddenly.
- A man has psychological problems, discord in relations with a partner.
- Spontaneous night erections are present.
- Problems with an erection sometimes arise.
- Elimination of problems after normalizing relationships.
What changes in the behavior of a man should alert a woman?
- A man specially avoids sexual intercourse, for example, motivating it with fatigue.
- Does not initiate sexual intercourse.
- Ignores erotic sentences and hints.

How to treat erectile dysfunction?
95% of cases of erectile dysfunction lend itself to drug correction with timely seeking a doctor.
At present, such methods of treatment of impotence are applied:
- Medicines PDE5 inhibitors.
- Means to increase potency on a plant basis (ginseng, pumpkin seeds, St. John's wort).
- Injection administration of drugs into the caves and urethra.
- Treatment with a vacuum.
- Psychotherapy.
- Massage and physiotherapy.
- Surgical methods (low efficiency).
Any drugs to increase potency are used only after a preliminary examination and prescribed by a doctor.
Such funds can conditionally be divided into three groups:
- drugs containing yochimbin;
- Cantharidin -based drugs;
- general strengthening substances.
Their effect is based on an increase in the blood flow to the penis and relaxing the smooth muscles. They also expand the vessels of cavernous bodies, thereby enhancing the erection. All these drugs do not create sexual desire artificially, but only enhance existing potency. The dosage is appointed by the doctor individually. Some men take the drug daily, while others take 3 times a week. Medicines of this group should be taken with caution to people suffering from diseases of the cardiovascular system, increased nervous excitability, insomnia and in old age. They are contraindicated in such conditions: angina pectoris, allergies, convulsive syndrome, arrhythmia, tendency to bleeding, age up to 18 years.
