Suffering From ED. No Improvement From Medicine. Any Alternate Solution?
Question: Hello, I suffer from ED and medication used to work but recently i have been unable to sustain my erections for more than 60 seconds, what do u recommend i do ? I am 30, and have had ED for 8 years now, pills worked for 7 years but have stopped working for 1 year now
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Basically ED is caused either by some physical and organic disease or due to some psychological causes.
Reasons for organic causes are..
High blood pressure
Diabetes
Hpercholesteremia
Low male hormone levels
Nutritional defciencies
Vascular disease...and do on as list is endless
But to have ED at such a young age is generally due to psychological causes like extreme depression,aloneness,stressful life,bad conditions at work,disturbed relations etc.
Other most common causes for ED at young age are...
Obesity
Alcoholism
Overuse of drugs
Very sedentary life
Smoking
What you require is consultation and counselling by a urologist and finding the cause and then treating it.
Just using ED medications won't solve the purpose.
Till you consult a urologist for proper evaluation,do the following
Start doing regular exercises for 45 minutes a day
Reduce your wright and be in your required range of BMI
Quit alcohol and drugs ,if any
Quit smoking
Do yoga and deep breathing exercises.
I hope it helps however you may revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
