Erectile dysfunction is common in many men, but the following methods can help avoid it:
1. Pay attention to diet
A diet that is not conducive to the heart is also detrimental to sexual ability. Small amounts of vegetables, fruits, and high-fat foods can not only prevent blood flow to the coronary arteries, but also to the sexual organs. Research has found that men who consume Mediterranean foods for a long time rarely experience erectile dysfunction.
2. Maintain a healthy weight
Overweight can cause many health problems, including diabetes, which can cause nerve damage. If it affects the nerves of sexual organs, it may lead to erectile dysfunction.
3. Preventing hypertension and high cholesterol
Hypertension and high cholesterol damage blood vessels, including those flowing to sexual organs, leading to erectile dysfunction. Regularly visit a doctor to ensure your blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
4. Moderate drinking or simply not drinking
There is no evidence to suggest that moderate alcohol consumption is not beneficial for erections, but long-term alcohol consumption can damage the liver, nerves, and other problems that may cause erectile dysfunction.
5. Regular exercise
A large amount of evidence suggests that running, swimming, and other forms of aerobic exercise can help prevent erectile dysfunction. Pay attention to other exercises that exert pressure on the sexual organs, especially cycling. People who ride bicycles for a long time should choose a bike that suits them, wear pants with cushions, and ride standing.
6. Not relying on Kegel's muscle strengthening method
The gel muscle strengthening method is beneficial for male and female patients with urinary incontinence, but there is no evidence to suggest that it helps with erectile dysfunction.
7. Pay attention to testosterone
Even if healthy men approach the age of 50, testosterone levels will decrease. Symptoms such as decreased libido, emotional state, decreased energy, and difficulty making decisions are all signs of decreased testosterone levels, and one should be vigilant against these symptoms.
8. Avoid synthesizing steroids
The drugs frequently abused by sports or bodybuilders can lower testosterone levels and also reduce the body's ability to understand testosterone.
9. Quit smoking
Smoking can damage blood vessels and prevent blood flow to the sexual organs. Nicotine can also infect blood vessels.
10. Reduce adventurous behavior
Adventureful sexual behavior or incorrect posture can bring pressure to the sexual organs and cause erectile dysfunction.
11. Control pressure
Psychological stress can increase adrenal levels and cause vascular infections. Relieving stress and improving mood is helpful.
