Smoking can cause arteriosclerosis, which is well-known, and research results show that two-thirds of impotence patients smoke. After investigation, a French doctor believes that the arterial insufficiency that causes impotence is mainly caused by smoking and improper diet. He believes that quitting smoking for these patients can help restore normal sexual function.
The European Impotence Research Center in Paris once measured the penile blood pressure index of more than 400 middle-aged impotent patients, and found that 53% of the patients with organic impotence had arterial blood vessels damaged. Moreover, other factors also play a role in influencing the blood supply of arteries.

The International Journal of Medical Research in the UK published a research report by Vitas Kurikska, which found that smoking is one of the important causes of male infertility. They examined the semen quality of 222 married men, of whom 127 were completely non-smokers and 95 smoked at least 4 cigarettes per day. The comparison results between the two groups showed that the average sperm content in the smoking group's semen was 25 million per milliliter, while the non-smoking group had an average of 63 million per milliliter; The active sperm in the smoking group only accounted for 49% of all sperm, while in the non-smoking group it reached over 63%. The sperm concentration and percentage of active sperm in the smoking group were significantly lower than those in the non-smoking group.
Smoking is also a major enemy of eugenics. According to surveys, the incidence of fetal malformations is only 0.5% for fathers who do not smoke, 1.4% for those who smoke 1-10 cigarettes per day, and 2.1% for those who smoke more than 10 cigarettes per day. Pregnant women who smoke or smoke passively have a higher incidence of low birth weight infants, and the birth rate of low birth weight infants in smoking pregnant women is twice that of non-smoking pregnant women. Compared with children whose parents do not smoke, children whose fathers smoke have a 20% higher overall risk of developing leukemia and lymphoma, indicating that fathers smoke is a risk factor. In addition, the children of pregnant women who smoke not only have poor growth and development, but are also prone to intellectual, emotional, and behavioral defects.
Excessive drinking has a greater impact on the reproductive system, mainly in the following aspects: long-term drinking can cause low male fertility; Excessive drinking can induce prostatitis, even secondary sexual dysfunction, and can lead to infertility. British researchers recently pointed out that excessive drinking can damage reproductive endocrine function, accelerate testosterone metabolism, and cause a relative increase in estrogen. Due to the reduction of testicular atrophy by active androgens, impotence can occur.
