Erectile Dysfunction

 

Erectile dysfunction — often referred to as impotence — is a condition in which a man is unable to get or maintain a full erection. This condition is similar to premature ejaculation in that it can negatively affect both the man and his partner, and can put considerable strain on the relationship.

Erectile dysfunction can often be upsetting to the woman, who may fear that her partner is not excited because he does not find her sexy or attractive enough. The man, meanwhile, worries that he is somehow less of a man and will feel ashamed that he is unable to satisfy his partner.

Erectile dysfunction can also have an added complication, in that it can make it difficult or even impossible for the couple to conceive, which can be emotionally traumatic if the couple is trying to have a baby.

According to the National Institutes of Health, anywhere from 15 to 30 million men in the United States suffer from erectile dysfunction. According to the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey, for every 1,000 men in the United States, 7.7 physician office visits were made for ED in 1985. By 1999, that rate had nearly tripled to 22.3.

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction

In trying to determine the possible cause of erectile dysfunction, the first factor a doctor will consider is the man’s age. In older men, this problem is most likely brought on by a physical condition. Diseases — such as diabetes, kidney disease, chronic alcoholism, multiple sclerosis, atherosclerosis, vascular disease, and neurological disease — account for about 70 percent of ED cases, according to the National Institutes of Health. Diabetes is a huge risk factor; the NIH says between 35 and 50 percent of men with diabetes experience erectile dysfunction.

Smoking, obesity, and a sedentary lifestyle are also believed to increase a man’s risk for erectile dysfunction. In addition, many common prescription medications — including antidepressants, diuretics, and drugs used to treat prostate cancer, high blood pressure, and Parkinson’s disease — can have a side effect of erectile problems (as well as decreasing sex drive).

However, up to 20 percent of all cases of erectile dysfunction are believed to be linked to a psychological cause — including depression, performance anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem. If the man previously enjoyed a good sex life and only recently started to have erectile problems — especially if he is with a new partner, or he and his partner have been experiencing any problems in their relationship recently — this can point to emotional factors as a probable culprit.

Red Lotus Tantra & ED

Erectile dysfunction, also known as ED, can affect a man at any age. However, it is becomes increasingly common as men grow older. This condition can now be treated with drugs. However, these drugs are expensive and are contraindicated for some men. Tantra offers a totally natural approach that can help make erections stronger and last longer. Integrating Tantra into your life can improve ED while at the same time benefiting every aspect of your life.

Tantra helps you to become aware of your energy body, which extends beyond the physical body. There are seven energy centers in the body called chakras. They are located in the area of the genitals, lower belly, below the diaphragm, the heart, the throat, just above and between the eye brows and near the top of the head. With practice you can learn to move ecstatic energy through your chakras. Eventually, you can discover how to share this experience with another person and experience orgasmic energy with or without an erection. After all of the underlying physical causes of illness has been investigated by a physician on can gain deeper understanding though tantric breath and yoga techniques
