Impotence Part 1 (Teacher: Michael)
When lads get problems with their sexual performance it is usually temporary and due to
Select
the
an
The
a
stress of
Select
the
an
The
a
moment or excessive alcohol. Alcohol breaks down
Select
the
an
The
a
barriers of sexual taboos and reticence, thereby increasing desire. But there is another side to
Select
the
an
The
a
increase in desire - namely
Select
the
an
The
a
decrease in performance, which is sometimes referred to as "brewer's droop".
In all cases of impotence,
Select
the
an
The
a
main difficulty is failure to sustain
Select
the
an
The
a
erection. Premature ejaculation is another complication of
Select
the
an
The
a
problem.
Select
the
an
The
a
reasons for this are mixed - about 40 per cent of cases have physical causes, such as diseases, drugs and injury, and 30 per cent have psychological causes. Another 30 per cent have
Select
the
an
The
a
mixture of both physical and psychological precipitating factors. It is also more common among men over
Select
the
an
The
a
age of 45.
I find that fear is
Select
the
an
The
a
potent cause of impotence, such as
Select
the
an
The
a
fear of doing damage to oneself after
Select
the
an
The
a
operation or heart attack. Your sex life can continue - after
Select
the
an

a
coronary thrombosis - get advice from your doctor. Drugs causing impotence include anti-depressant chemicals and those used to lower blood pressure - as
Select
the
an
The
a
erection is due to
Select
the
an
The
a
amount and pressure of blood diverted into
Select
the
an
The
a
penis.
Diseases affecting impotence include diabetes, high blood pressure, depression and anxiety. Recurrent failure brings its own spiral of lack of confidence and increasing tension, leading to more disastrous consequences when making love. Nervous system diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, affect performance in

male.
Those who have suffered nerve damage in accidents where, for example,
Select
the
an
The
a
pelvis has been crushed in
Select
the
an
The
a
road traffic accident are liable to sustain sexual difficulties. Any disturbances of
Select
the
an
The
a
circulation below
Select
the
an
The
a
waist can contribute to impotence. Fortunately, these are unusual situations and
Select
the
an
The
a
majority of blame lies in
Select
the
an
The
a
psyche - fear, anxiety and tension, with
Select
the
an
The
a
degree of depression thrown in for good measure.
