A Man’s Embarrassing Question: What Do I Do about Impotence?
A man’s inability to perform a sexual act can be debilitating to his mental health. It is also one of the most commonly experienced health concerns by a man. Almost every man, at some point in time in his life will complain of this health ailment, unfortunately. The cycle of erectile dysfunction can spiral quickly downwards into a frustrating and emotional situation for both the man, and any relationship he is pursuing.
There are three stages to the erection process in a man; any of these three stages can host physical or emotional health problems that create a dysfunction.
At the first stage, which is arousal, a man receives stimulation from only his thoughts and/or senses. During the second stage, a man’s brain is talking to the arousal function, telling the body to increase blood flow to the penis. At the final, third stage, the blood vessels of the penis enlarge, allowing more blood to flow through and therefore an erection to occur. If anything inhibits, disrupts or confuses any of these processes, erectile dysfunction may ensue.
