Although impotence makes men suffer unbearably, medical experts have introduced that some cases of impotence are actually caused by some health problems in the man's body. Let's take a look at the truth that health problems have caused male impotence!
As men age, their erectile function will naturally decline, but without other diseases, it will not decline so quickly. Erectile dysfunction (ED) may also be a precursor to cardiovascular disease. In this sense, ED can be seen as a "weather vane" for the health of middle-aged and elderly men.
It's best to consult a doctor if you can take "Viagra"
Middle-aged and elderly people should be particularly vigilant for some abnormal physical conditions. Once they discover that they have ED, they should also pay attention to whether they have nervous system abnormalities, such as headaches, dizziness, inattention, and memory loss; Cardiovascular system abnormalities, such as palpitations, chest tightness, etc., may cause angina in patients with coronary heart disease; Abnormalities in the motor system, such as limb numbness, fatigue, tension in the neck and back muscles, and soreness, can all be signals of high blood pressure.
Many ED patients with cardiovascular disease and diabetes ask our newspaper whether they can improve their erectile function by taking Viagra. Currently, the medical profession believes that under the guidance of doctors, "Viagra" (Viagra) used to treat ED will not increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. However, for those who are currently using nitrates to treat cardiovascular diseases or whose cardiovascular conditions are not stable, it is strictly prohibited to use "Viagra" to treat ED.
Experts also believe that the decline in erectile function is inevitable as people age, but changing unhealthy lifestyles can improve vascular endothelial function. Therefore, quitting smoking, exercising, and taking vitamins can effectively prevent the occurrence of ED.
Diabetes is the most common cause of ED
In the past, many people did not realize that erectile dysfunction (ED) is a physical disease, and few doctors even regarded it as a sign of declining overall male health. However, in recent years, new research has continuously confirmed that ED and chronic diseases are closely related, and there is a common pathogenesis between them.
According to reports, in the past, due to the limitations of inspection equipment, most ED patients were unable to find the cause of the disease. Therefore, the medical profession believed that 80% to 90% of ED patients were caused by psychological factors, while the remaining 10% to 20% were organic. However, with the deepening of medical research, 80% of ED is considered organic at present, and diabetes is the most common cause of ED, and diabetes patients often have ED.
