Erectile dysfunction is considered one of the urgent problems faced by men over the age of 35.
According to statistical studies and the results of sociological surveys, it was found that more than 30% of men suffer from full chili partial potency. However, only 5% of men turn to specialists for such a delicate problem for help. In most cases, men experiencing problems during intercourse try to solve the problem on their own by taking drugs to increase erection, which are not able to eliminate the cause of potency, but only stimulate sexual arousal during intercourse.
Such methods of "treatment" lead to an aggravation of the main cause of potency, as a result of which a number of complications may occur in the form of a complete lack of potency, infertility and other health problems that will not allow a man to live a full sexual life.
There are a huge number of reasons that do not allow a man to have sexual intercourse, all of them are capable of developing at a physiological, psychological, or pathological level.
The main causes of potency
Erectile dysfunction is nothing but a reflection of the physical or psychological state of a man. In the process of sexual arousal, the whole organism is involved. The brain is considered responsible for the process, which transmits impulses throughout the body, as a result of which blood flow to the pelvic organs increases, and erection increases. Often the cause of potency are cumulative causes that combine several problems.
Problems with potency can be caused by the following adverse factors:
- Psychogenic.
- Neurogenic.
- Hormonal.
- Vascular;

- External factors.
Given the individuality of each male body, other factors may be the cause of potency, but regardless of the cause, it must be identified and eliminated, this will help the man restore sexual arousal and strengthen the erection.

How to help a man?
In order to help a man in solving problems with potency, it is necessary to identify the cause that provoked the violation.
