Organic impotence

Organic impotence – the inability of the patient to the erection and preservation, not related to psychogenic factors. The most common cause is vascular pathology. Erectile iliac arterial system supplying the penis with blood, includes an internal folly artery, the artery of the penis and corpus cavernosum. This system has the unique ability to dramatically increase blood flow in response to sexual stimulation of pelvic visceral (excitatory) nerves. In normal blood flow is 10 ml / min at rest and approximately 60 ml / min during stimulation (P. Metz, E. Wagner, 1981). This rapid increase in blood flow, along with its neirogennym redistribution in erectile tissues causing an erection.

Lack of blood pressure in small vessels of the arterial bed during sexual stimulation leads to an inadequate blood supply to the cavernous bodies and incomplete erection. This, apparently, is an explanation of the close connection impotence to aging. The degree of arterial bed may be different. Thus, for example, the complete absence of erection may indicate a serious vascular pathology, and relatively good erection at rest that disappear when copulative frictions may be a manifestation of the less severe vascular disease. If the blood flow in the iliac arteries is limited, and in the inner shameless arteries are occluded, then a redistribution of blood flow in the vessels of striated muscles, with less resistance. These vessels are available in the gluteal, muscle, granted with the upper and lower gluteal arteries, which represent a branch of the iliac arteries and internal shameless. In clinical practice, redistribution of blood flow in the load is called the pelvic syndrome “steal”. It can manifest disappearance of erections during active koitalnyh frictions.

Impotence of vascular origin most commonly occurs in patients with a anemneze hypertension, diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, ischemic heart disease, cerebral blood flow. Important role in the occurrence of impotence of vascular origin is smoking. A special group should identify patients with erectile dysfunction of vascular origin, who suffered blunt perineal trauma, irradiation of the pelvic organs.

Waning erektivnoy function with impotence of vascular origin may be gradual, it can be less frequent sexual intercourse, normal or premature ejaculation, not full erection in response to sexual stimulation, inability to maintain the erection until ejaculation. The use of antihypertensive medications patients has further violation of erectile function.

The examination of such patients are evaluating the state of the vascular system. For this palpable pulse in the dorsal artery of the penis at the level of suspensory ligament and evaluate him on a four-point scale (from 0 to 3). On the pulse of the other arteries, for example, on the femur, can judge the state of the proximal aortoiliac segment or the narrowing of the external iliac artery. However, a clear pulse on the femoral artery does not exclude distal lesions of small vessels in podvzdosh-but-cavernous arterial channel. Other signs of peripheral vascular disease, including muscle atrophy of lower limbs, pale skin, lack of hair distribution of the lower extremities may indicate a systemic vascular disease. If impotence is necessary to investigate iliac cavernous arterial bed. The adequacy of the pelvic blood flow is usually estimated non-invasively using Doppler ultrasound of the arteries of the penis. For this standard Doppler probe is placed at 9.5 kHz for each of the arteries, cavernous bodies. Cuff width of 2.5 cm superimposed on the base of the penis and measured occlusal systolic blood pressure in their arteries. Then it is compared with systemic occlusive pressure in the brachial artery and thus establish a comparative penisno-brachial index (PBI). At rest PBI reveals a gradient of blood pressure in the iliac artery stenosis cavernous bed. Since PBI alone is not sensitive enough, also determine its patients in the dynamics, or performing physical exercise. If you suspect a pelvic syndrome “steal” carry out physical activity gluteal muscles for 3-5 min. A significant decrease in the PBI loading confirms the diagnosis of the syndrome of “steal” and explained the phenomenon of redistribution of blood flow to the pelvic arteries with a load: Instead of entering iliac cavernous arterial bed with high resistance, he switches to the gluteal artery with a lower vascular resistance. Having discovered the phenomenon of redistribution of the load gluteal muscles, can identify patients with erectile dysfunction of vascular origin, in which the values of PBI alone may be normal.

The phenomenon of redistribution is also confirmed by measuring the temperature in the urethra during physical exertion. The temperature in the urethra is almost completely corresponds to the temperature in the cavernous bodies. The fall in temperature of the penis during exercise indicates a redistribution of blood flow in the pelvic arteries.

Other noninvasive methods for determining the level of blood flow in the pelvic arteries are plethysmography and radionuclide study. Selective arteriography internal shameless arteries do basically the patients who in the course of non-invasive studies have found deviations from the norm and who are willing to undergo invasive procedures (balloon angioplasty, macro-or microsurgical reconstruction of vessels). By arteriography internal shameless artery should not be resorted to only with the diagnostic purpose, if not expected restoration of vascular permeability.

Enough common type of organic impotence was neurogenic. Normal sexual function is provided by a healthy nervous system, so any of its disorders (neurosis, neurasthenia, spinal cord and pelvic Department parasympathetic nervous system, etc.) can cause impotence. Neurogenic factors can disrupt the process of erections, and the process of their maintenance. Patients with complaints of violations of erectile function should be required to conduct a neurological examination, especially if they have suffered neurological disorders or in their history there are indications of the pathology of the nervous system.

In the center of the neurological examination should be the crotch area and lower extremities. Need to evaluate the cutaneous sensibility of the external genitalia and lower extremities to light touch, jab. Define the threshold of sensitivity of the penis to vibrate. This procedure is carried out using biotenzometra, it is inexpensive, completely painless, gives quantitative information and reproducible results. The deviation in the sensitivity to vibration is an early manifestation of peripheral neuropathy. At the head and the middle part of the penis to the right and left sensors are placed. The patient was asked to note when it senses the vibration, and gradually increase the amplitude of oscillation. The study is conducted several times until, until you obtain reproducible results. This test involves minimal stimulation of the nerves, and therefore can be considered a more reliable indication of peripheral sensory neuropathy in the lewd nerve. Other methods for neurological studies include electromyography muscles of the perineum, the definition of refractoriness sacral nerves, as well as the registration of the potentials of the brain during stimulation of the external genitalia, and so comparisons with objective neurological findings of other studies of erectile function allows you to define more precisely the origin of neurogenic impotence.

Depending on the etiology of neurologic injury onset may occur in different ways – either gradually or suddenly. An erection may be absent or be incomplete when there is a lack of rigidity of the penis. At the potency affect neurological disorders, in alcoholism, diabetes, conditions after radical surgery for pelvic, spinal cord infection, tumors or trauma, degeneration of intervertebral discs, as well as in tumors or brain injury and cerebral insufficiency. Often, impotence is directly attributable to two causes – neurological and vascular, for example. patients with diabetes mellitus.

Psychic impotence

The primary basis of substandard erections may be psychological factors. In men with erectile disorders frequently observed changes in the psyche. Sometimes the question arises, in which cases they are the cause, and in what – a consequence of impotence. For the distinction between primary and secondary psychological factors in the impaired erectile require special examination.

The physical basis of impotence caused by a primary psychological factors, is inadequate stimulation kortikosakralnogo way. It can be attributed to many causes, in particular the effects of symptomatic hyperstimulation as a result of anxiety, depression, feelings of aggression or guilt during sexual stimulation. In these patients, there are psychological factors of the disease, but the majority still do not, they are the primary etiologic cause. Regardless of the presence of organic disease with impotence manifest such feelings as depression, aggression, his own guilt, decreased self-esteem and loss of self-respect. Patients with impotence caused primarily by psychological factors, as a rule, relatively young (45 years), noted the sudden appearance of the disease, which is usually associated with a very definite occasion. Sometimes they are experiencing a “situational” impotence – the inability to have sex in certain circumstances. In patients with impotence have been some mental disorders, which is understandable, since the self-esteem, self-esteem and awareness of one’s self is often closely linked to the implementation of adequate sexual function. It is therefore necessary to gather information on the manifestations of anxiety, aggressiveness, depression, feelings of guilt, inferiority. However, it is sometimes difficult to determine whether these factors are the primary cause of impotence or a consequence of it. For psychological impotence is characterized by clinical polymorphism, variations in the degree of sexual function disorders have emerged, the presence of success in any particular situation, with persistent disability in other contexts. Thus patients are observed decreased sex drive and dominance of braking torque while maintaining libido.

Patients with low sexual desire to celebrate sexual weakness, but detailed surveys is that they have saved and erection and ejaculation, but there is no desire for sexual intimacy or the desire expressed incompletely, and dimly realized on debt rather than on need. Some patients have an erection does not arise even if the relevant circumstances. Others do not get satisfaction, despite the full implementation of sexual intercourse with the physiological side.

When you save the sexual appetite of patients have a variety of symptoms: lack of erection, sometimes its absence, too fast ejaculation or, conversely, a phenomenon aspermia. The most characteristic should be considered as the disappearance of an adequate erection at the most crucial moment, before sexual intercourse, while the preparatory period took place normally. Also characteristic spontaneous erections in the morning, with erotic fantasies, along with its disappearance in the real world of convergence.

There are patients with a decrease in sexual desire, stemming from years of sexual abstinence, negative or distracting influences, hobby work, negative attitudes towards his wife because of her sexual frigidity, general state of fatigue, long-term concern, and emotional depression. The cause of sexual disorders, may be inadvertently insulting spoken word, for example, the reproaches of his wife about her husband’s sexual disorders are pathological stimulus, significantly aggravating the already existing disease that causes profound inhibition of erections. Consequently, any negative emotion, even indirectly affect the integrity of sexual impulse of man, may acquire pathogenic character and fortitude to fix the disorder arose. Osobennosilny experiences with failures during casual sex. Even more severe are the experiences with the crisis in the first wedding night, when an unexpected setback threatens the future relationship between the spouses.

Dramatically influenced by the traumatic loss of an adequate erection, leading to the impossibility of convergence. Highly pathogenic significance is suddenly experienced by ejaculation before intercourse, especially if it occurred before the first proximity. Pathogenic effects of this experience can be so strong that a man for a long time (sometimes several years), considering themselves inferior, does not dare to start sexual life.

Impotence

Premature ejaculation (premature ejaculation, premature ejaculation)
Treatment of premature ejaculation (treatment of premature ejaculation), weak erection, reduced potency (poor erection), impotence

Impotence – the inability of men to make a full sexual intercourse. This is a special form of disorder of sexual function in men, different from other violations, such as the pathology of libido, orgasm, the passage of sperm or ejaculation. Impotence the inability to create a cavernous bodies of the penis pressure necessary for its introduction into the vagina or maintain this pressure until the moment of ejaculation. Rigidity of the penis, which determines the capacity for erection, is directly related to the magnitude of blood pressure within the corpus cavernosum member, which is approximately 90 mm Hg. Art. Typically, this pressure is sufficient for normal insertion of the penis into the vagina.

There are several classifications of impotence. On the primary impotence say if the patient had no period of normal sexual function, called a secondary violation of earlier sexual potency. Recently considered to be generally accepted classification, which is based on the estimated pathophysiological mechanisms of impotence. In particular, distinguish impotence, primarily due to psychological causes, and organic. Among the causes of organic impotence is called mechanical damage, vascular, neurological, hormonal disorders and their combinations.

According to the traditional evaluation of the disease, approximately 90% of impotence is caused by psychological reasons. However, many studies in recent years increasing emphasis on organic factors. A number of studies shows that more than 50% of surveyed patients with erectile dysfunction found organic pathology.

Prior to taking the medication

Before you start taking drugs or begin any other treatment for ED, your doctor or pharmacist may recommend you to change your lifestyle, for example, they may advise:

Do sports
Follow the diet for reducing blood lipids (fats, holestirola)
Stop smoking
Reduce alcohol

Try decreasing fatigue and worry
Your doctor may also discuss with you the potentially reversible causes of ED, such as the lack of hormones (testosterone), intake of medications that can cause ED.

The method of treatment of ED

Discuss possible treatments with your doctor. Try to learn as much as possible about each method of treatment. Here are some questions that may help you in your decision:

How effective and safe method?
As my wife (or girlfriend) will perceive this method?
Is this method is convenient?

What causes ED?

Some experts believe that up to 80% of all cases of ED may be due to physiological causes, the remaining 20% are psychological factors. Nevertheless, in many cases there are both aspects. Below are some risk factors or causes of ED.

Risk factors / causes of ED

Physiological causes
Vascular disease: Arteriosclerosis (walls of arteries thicken and lose elasticity), heart failure or stroke, hypertension (high blood pressure) and high cholesterol levels cause inadequate blood flow to the penis. Vascular diseases – the most common cause of ED.

Diabetes: This chronic disease can cause nerve damage (neuropathy) and blood vessels (angiopathy), through which enters the blood to the penis. In 2 of 3 men with diabetes may develop ED.

Neurological disorders: Neurological disorders include spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, peripheral nerve damage due to long-term diabetes or alcoholism.

Hormonal disorders: Lack of male sex hormone testosterone can also cause ED.

Surgical operations: Operation of the colon, rectum, or prostate, as well as radiotherapy of the pelvis may damage nerves and blood vessels, which can lead to erectile dysfunction.

Injuries:

Spinal cord injury
Pelvic trauma

Chronic diseases: if you suffer from chronic illness, ask your doctor whether it can affect your sexual health.

Side effects of drug administration: There is a large amount of drugs sold as a prescription and without it, which could potentially provoke ED. If after receiving the new drug you are experiencing problems with erectile dysfunction, ask your doctor about possible side effects of the drug, as well as the existing alternatives.

Lifestyles
Alcohol: Alcohol, as used in large doses, negatively affects your erection. Prolonged, excessive drinking can lead to liver damage, nervous disorders and metabolic male hormones.

A sedentary lifestyle: Lack of exercise can lead to the development of ED.

Smoking: According to clinical trials in this area, smokers have a greater chance of developing ED than nonsmokers.

Psychological reasons
Psychological factors can cause ED by themselves or in combination with the physiological factors.

Uncertainty in its strength: If a man feels uncertainty about his sexual abilities, then this may affect the erection.

Stress: Stress can negatively affect the erection.

Depression: As in men suffering from erectile dysfunction, can develop depression, and men suffering from depression may be likely to develop ED.

The problem in the couple: In the event of couples have problems that are associated with sexual, financial and other aspects, they can adversely affect your ability to erect.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) common disease

Erectile dysfunction (ED) - this is a temporary or permanent (at least 3 months) the inability to attain and / or maintain an erection sufficient for successful sexual intercourse. Erectile dysfunction – a common disorder, which may be successfully treated in 95% cases.

Despite the fact that psychological factors can play a major role in terms of sexual ability and sexual attraction, in most cases, erectile dysfunction arising due to physiological reasons. To identify possible problems, you can conduct self-assessment test. Test results it is desirable to introduce self-assessment by your doctor. Although along with the term “erectile dysfunction” can use the term “impotence”, is preferable to use the term “erectile dysfunction”, because it is more accurate.

What is the impact of ED on men?
The degree of erectile function varies from mild to severe (complete loss of sexual function). In men suffering from erectile dysfunction may be a low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, stress, guilt and the propensity to conflict. This further exacerbates the problem.

Can erectile dysfunction affect relations in the pair?
ED can affect self-esteem for both men and his partner, their relationship and their perceptions of each other. In connection with this relationship may be subjected to a severe test of strength.

Talk to your doctor
Medical examination, medical history and information about your sex life needed for successful diagnosis and treatment of ED. Talk to your doctor about your medical condition and the most suitable for your treatment. Of course, before you start taking any medication, you should consult a doctor. Physician – your first assistant in solving the problem of erectile dysfunction.

What is ED (erectile dysfunction)?

What is erectile dysfunction?

By definition, the World Health Organization, ED – is “persistent or recurrent inability of men to obtain and / or maintain an erection sufficient for successful sexual akta.1 ED – a common disorder. It may be progressive, but often cured.

Information in this section will help you know what erectile dysfunction, and to understand its causes.

Some facts to consider:

In the world of ED affects about 152 million muzhchin2
Over 50% of men aged 40 to 70 years are at risk of ED
According to specialists, ED 900 000 sick men in Year 3

If you are in a state of sexual arousal can not achieve an erection and / or lose it before ejaculation, you may have ED. Even if it happened only once or rarely occurs, especially in unusual circumstances (extreme fatigue, stress, severe intoxication), you should consult your doctor. However, most experts agree that the diagnosis of ED is empowered only in cases where such difficulties occur systematically for a considerable period of time.

If you have an erection occurs with difficulty or lack of it (unstable), be sure to discuss this with your doctor. It will survey and talk to you about possible treatments.

I recommend most often strain pubococcygeal muscle, which is located in the perineum (also known as “love”). During periodic compression of the muscles of normal blood flow in the prostate, it reduces swelling. Strain “love” muscle should be three seconds or more, 5-10 times, can be standing or sitting, in transport, at work, at home.

Every morning he rose from his bed, standing in the position of “Attention” pressed to his chest with bent arms, to make a momentary contraction of all muscles of the trunk, perineum, including “love” the muscles to have a feeling a sort of “boom” from top to bottom, in the thigh or genitals. These “arrows” normalize blood circulation in the prostate and delay the development of prostate adenoma. If possible, we must continue to lead a normal sex life. This reduces the stagnation of testosterone in the prostate. When he moved to the stagnation dihydrotestosterone and contributes to the widening of the connective tissue in the prostate and the development of adenoma.

Because the colon is adjacent to the prostate, chronic constipation, promote the development of prostatic adenoma. Therefore, constipation should be done at night cleaning enema, first with water and then with vegetable oil. And for the prevention of constipation to eat more vegetables, fruits, whole grain bread, yogurt and vegetable oil. Refrain from drinking alcoholic beverages, as alcohol exacerbates the disease. Often take baths in the warm, pleasant for the duration of body water per hour and more. Under the water and perform training exercises for “love” muscle. Every day there are pumpkin seeds. They contain multivitamins (especially vitamin E) and trace elements (zinc, etc.) necessary to maintain male sexual function and motility. Are useful as sunflower seeds, sprouted wheat, extracts from the leaves of nettles and other traditional remedies.

Treatment and prevention of HIV-1 infection. In appointing the drug as monotherapy to him quickly and almost always develop viral resistance, so it should always be assigned in combination with at least two other antiretroviral drugs.

Antiviral. Nevirapine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) of HIV-1. Nevirapine is directly connected to the reverse transcriptase (ОT) and blocks RNA-and DNA-dependent DNA polymerase reaction, destroying the catalytic center of the enzyme.
The action of nevirapine is not competitive with respect to the nucleoside and nucleoside triphosphate. The drug does not block the reverse transcriptase of HIV-2 and DNA polymerase of eukaryotes (human DNA polymerase alpha, beta, gamma or delta).
