Depression and Erectile Dysfunction

Posted by admin on December 3, 2009 under Diseases | Be the First to Comment

Depression and erectile dysfunction have a high statistical correlation. Some studies have quantified that over 80% of men who suffer from depression also experience the symptoms of erectile dysfunction. Surely, this can only serve to exacerbate the underlying depression thus creating a vicious circle.

Scientists have not definitively identified the physical mechanism which results in this causality, but most attribute it to hormonal fluctuations brought on by the depression. Hormones are a critical component of the formula which results in sustainable erections. The other component relates to blood circulation which has no link to psychological manifestations like depression.

Many experts believe that by addressing the erectile dysfunction, either through pharmaceuticals or more holistic means, they can break this unhealthy cycle. Improved sexual health often provides the requisite underpinnings of confidence and self-esteem necessary for successfully emerging from prolonged depression. Those who are afflicted with depression should fully explore this avenue of potential relief.

Hypertension and Erectile Dysfunction

Posted by admin on June 14, 2009 under Diseases | Be the First to Comment

Hypertension, also referred to as high blood pressure, is a health condition where a person’s blood pressure is elevated at all times. In most cases, hypertension is a condition that exists on its own, without other diseases contributing to it. In the instances where someone has another disease which causes hypertension, the medical community refers to the condition as “secondary hypertension.” Here, we’re going to examine the correlation between hypertension and male sexual health.

As an arterial disorder, hypertension reduces the amount of blood flow to parts of the body, something that’s essential for a man to be able to achieve an erection. When blood flow is restricted to the penis, an erection is much more difficult. This is where a vasodilator like Viagra, Levitra, or Cialis comes into use. These medications allow more blood to flow, and help counteract the restricted blood flow, however, it’s only temporary.

The best method to be able to fight against erectile dysfunction due to hypertension is to improve your health. Reducing your weight and increasing the amount of aerobic exercise that you do on a daily basis is a good first step. Regular exercise is good for increasing the amount of blood flow to all parts of the body.

Reducing stress through relaxation therapy and meditating are another great way to reduce hypertension. These are activities that can be incorporated into your daily activities, and you will begin to see the benefits immediately. Start meditating for 15 minutes a day, and a simple walking routine. Over time, gradually increase the amount of time you spend meditating and exercising so that you can build your body’s endurance.

Keeping your mind and body in good shape will help all areas of your health, but specifically men will benefit by being able to maintain a normal and healthy sexual lifestyle.

What Is Peyronie’s Disease?

Posted by admin on May 21, 2009 under Diseases | Be the First to Comment

Coming with many names like penile induration, bent nail syndrome, and Induratio Penis Plastica, the Peyronie’s disease is a disorder that involves connective tissue where fibrous plagues grow in the soft tissues of the penis. According to recent studies, about 1-4% of men around the globe are affected by this connective tissue disorder.

It was back in 1743 when this disease was first described by a French Surgeon named Francois Gigot De La Peyronie. The fibrosing process specifically occurs in the tunica albuginea. There a fibrous tissue wraps up the penile corpora cayernosa. This, in turn, will cause the penis to take an abnormal and upward curve.

Pain, hardened and cord-like lesions, abnormal upward curve of the penis – these are just some of the symptoms of the Peyronie’s disease.

A lot of pain is felt in the early stages of this disease. This often lasts in 12-18 months. Erectile as well as sexual dysfunction (which varies in degrees) is another symptom that plagues its victim during the later stages of the disease. The Peyronie’s disease also makes sexual intercourse painful as well as difficult. It may rob you of the pleasure brought by sexual intercourse. Although there are some cases where men who have satisfactory sexual intercourse despite the said disease.

No matter what your age or race, you can be afflicted with the Peyronie’s disease. However, it is commonly seen in Caucasian males who’re aged 40 or above. Fortunately, this disease is not contagious and is not related in any way to cancer. Not to mention it’s only confined to a man’s penis.

How To Reverse The Effects Of Type 2 Diabetes

Posted by admin on May 7, 2009 under Diseases | Be the First to Comment

“Can I reverse the effects of Type 2 Diabetes?”

Let’s take a look at this type of Diabetes first. Unlike Diabetes Type 1 where the body has very little insulin production, being diagnosed with Diabetes Type 2 means that your body is still producing insulin at normal levels (sometimes higher than usual) but your body is immune to it.

As for the answer to the question above, the answer is unequivocally yes! It can be reversed. If you’re thinking and asking yourself how to reverse the effects of Diabetes Type 2, read on and you’ll surely find nuggets of good advice that should help you get started.

Changing Your Diet

Your diet plays a vital role in the reversal of Diabetes Type 2 and its effects. Changing what you eat and opting for healthier choices is a good first step, but it doesn’t stop there. You should also change the way you eat and when you eat.

It is wise to go for small but frequent feeding. Eat every four hours or so and stop a couple of hours before going to bed.

Leading An Active Lifestyle

Living an active lifestyle and leaving your desk-bound ways behind is just as important as changing your diet. When done on a regular basis and properly, it can significantly reduce the effects of Diabetes Type 2.

That doesn’t mean that you have to spend every waking moment at the gym. Starting out with 30 minutes of walking daily is an excellent starting point. If you’re diagnosed with full blown diabetes, an hour of aerobic exercises everyday is necessary to combat the illness.
