Many people are mistaken in the view that difficulties in the bed are caused by relationships or emotional problems. However, your sexual function is a good health barometer. Some illnesses or medical complaints also have a negative effect on sexual life:
Diabetes:
Diabetes is often associated with impairment of sexual function due to associated nerve damage. Approximately half of all male diabetics are affected by problems affecting sexual function, impotence ( erectile dysfunction ) or difficulties with ejaculation. In women, sexual dysfunction manifests itself in the form of diminished desire and orgasm disturbances. They can reduce the risk of such symptoms by controlling blood glucose, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels. Type 2 is the most common form of diabetes (sugar cramp) and occurs mainly from the age of 40. Most type 2 diabetics are overweight and many of them have only slight symptoms for years, until diabetes is recognized as such. Before taking medications like Cialis, Viagra, or Levitra, it is important that you have diabetes to diagnose the disease as soon as possible - sustained erectile dysfunction can be an early warning sign for undetected diabetes.
Vascular diseases:
Disorders of the sexual function can be caused by vascular diseases, which damage the blood vessels, hardening or narrowing. Such damage can affect the blood supply of the sex organs. In men this manifests itself in the form of erectile dysfunction (impotence), in women as inadequate lubrification (moisturizing the vagina in sexual arousal).
Alcohol:
Small amounts of alcohol can be quite healthy. Excessive alcohol consumption can be fatal to your health as well as to sexuality. Alcohol can increase the desire, but at the same time reduce the potency. Excessive alcohol consumption and / or alcohol consumption can also lead to changes in behavior that reduce libido and impair sexual function. The ability to concentrate and the power of judgment decrease. Alcohol abuse is often associated with other health-damaging factors such as smoking, eating too much, lack of exercise, and drug abuse.
Depressions:
Sexuality begins in the brain, the 'largest sexual organ'. When certain chemical substances (neurotransmitters) are imbalanced in the brain, as is the case with depression, this affects libido, excitement and orgasm. Frustratingly, antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors often have sexual dysfunction as a side effect. Luckily, there are now drugs that counteract this. Recently published studies (with the support of Pfizer) have found that Viagra or viagra-like drugs can help here.
Drug interactions:
Many medicines can affect the libido. Not only antidepressants, but also certain drugs for the treatment of high blood pressure and even the pill for gestational contraception may have side effects which have a negative effect on the sexual function. Drugs used to lower blood pressure, such as beta-blockers, thiazide diuretics, or clonidine, can cause impotence, as do some statins or fibrates for reducing cholesterol levels. Here, a drug change or a reduction in dose can provide relief. However, you must first discuss this with your doctor.
