ED and PE

Allopathic treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence

Allopathy treatment gives a lot of emphasis to

• Psychotherapy, counselling.
• Regular exercises, which increases blood flow to all parts of the body, increase level of male hormones, increase levels of certain neurohormones which are mood elevators.

When psychotherapy fails to boost the person's self-image interventional modes are tried :

• Drugs (oral drugs, penile suppositories, ointments, injectibles hormone treatments and so on.)
• Vacuum devices - these work by drawing blood into the penis. It must be used just before intercourse.
• Surgery - as a last resort when all other methods fail to better erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence. Prosthetic implants (artificial rods) are inserted into the penis and allowed to remain there. However, these are very expensive and also irreversible.

All treatments aim at helping the individual achieve an erection and maintaining it long enough to perform intercourse. However, no treatment can provide a permanent cure for erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence in allopathy.

Wishing you the joy of love and intimacy

Frustrated and Embarrassed by Erectile Dysfunction(ED) or Impotence

Few experiences are as disheartening to the intimacy of a loving couple as erectile dysfunction, the inability of the male partner to achieve and maintain an erection.

This means even though a man has a strong desire to perform sexual act with a cooperative partner, he can not perform sexual act because of looseness (absense of erection) of his penis. Even if he performs the sexual act with his determined efforts he does not get the erection and gets afflicted with tiredness, perspiration and frustration to perform sex or intercourse.

The term erectile dysfunction can mean the inability to achieve erection, an inconsistent ability to do so, or the ability to achieve only brief erections. ED (erectile dysfunction) may sometimes be even termed as Impotence.

The likelihood of developing ED (erectile dysfunction or impotence) increases with age. It is estimated that 1 in 10 men over the age of 21 suffer from impotence of ED (erectile dysfunction); most men suffer in silence. In America today, it is estimated that 25 to 30 million men suffer from erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence or E

Why and How Does Erectile Dysfunction (ED) or Impotence Happen?

Erection of penis is a sequential event and any disruption in this sequence can cause erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence. The sequence includes nerve impulse in brain, spinal column, area around penis and response in muscles, fibrous tissues, veins and arteries in and around corpora cavernosa. Damage to nerves, arteries, smooth muscles, fibrous tissues often as a result of disease is the most common cause of erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence.

Most cases (70 to 80%) have some underlying pathology behind erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence. In older men, ED usually has a physical cause. Incidence increases with age.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence does not have to be a part of getting older. It is true that as you get older, you may need more stimulation (such as stroking or touching) to get an erection. You might also need more time between erections. But older men should still be able to get an erection and enjoy sex.

Physical causes of erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence :

• Alcohol and tabacco use
• Fatigue
• Brain or spinal cord injuries
• Hypogonadism leading to lower testosterone levels
• Liver or kidney failure
• Multiple sclerosis
• Parkinson's disease
• Radiation therapy to the testicles
• Stroke
• Some types of prostate or bladder surgery
• Side effects of medicines like antihypertensives, antihistamines, antidepressants, tranquilizers, appetite suppressants, cimetidine. Drug side effects account for about 30% of erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence cases.

Pschological causes (feelings) that can lead to erectile dsyfunction (ED) or impotence :

• Feeling nervous about sex, perhaps because of a bad experience or because of a previous episode of impotence or erectile dysfunction (ED).
• Feeling stressed, including stress from work or family situations.
• Being troubled by problems in your relationship with your sex partner.
• Depression.
• Feeling so self conscious that you can not enjoy sex.
• Thinking that your sexual partner is reacting negatively to you.

Whether the cause is physical or pschological, the damaging effects on both partners can often lead to the break up of the relationship.

How is Erectile Dysfunction (ED) or Impotence Diagnosed?

You will be asked some questions and a physical examination may be done. Sample of your blood and urine may be tested for diseases and disorders. Other tests may also be needed. After full medical history and physical examination the doctor will determine which tests are right for you.

Lifestyle Changes that May be Helpful for Erectile Dsyfunction (ED) or Impotence

• Massaging the body with a herbal oil which gives a relief from physical exertion and also acts as an aphrodisiac. Mutual massage slows down lovemaking and opens up communication.
• Practicing yoga and meditation to overcome mental exertion and to cope with daily stress.
• Sleep at least for 8 hours a day.
• Avoiding the consumption of alcohol, tobacco, heroin and so on.
• Exercise regularly. Moderate (not excessive) exercise helps relax the body, boost energy levels, increase physical awareness, and stimulate sexuality.
• Practice different kinds of intimacy and touching; try not to focus only on the erection. Partners who proceed with patience and learn to enjoy each other in a variety of ways often return to full potency.
• Avoid hot, spicy and bitter foods.
• Add little fat in your diet.
• Give a gap of 4 days between two consecutive intercourses.
• Frequent sex prevents erectile dysfuntion (ED) or impotence.

Premature Ejaculation (PE)

Ayurveda Treatment of Premature Ejaculation

Premature ejaculation is the most common sexual problem among men.

It is not very difficult to identify: It usually means that a man reaches the orgasm too soon. According to me if you and your partner think you're finished too early, then you're a premature ejaculator

Men who suffer from premature ejaculation start dreading sex and eventually it may even affect their overall confidence level

But thank God there is Ayurveda which has 48 different remedies for premature ejaculation. Each individual case is properly taken and analyzed to select the best remedy for a particular person. The idea is to make a tailor made prescription which usually has amazing effects with no side effects. The success rate of homeopathic treatment in premature ejaculation is 100% if the remedy is selected diligently by the concerned Ayurveda doctor

What is Premature Ejaculation (PE)?

We want to live longer; same is with sex because here also we want to last longer. Ejaculation occurs when a man reaches sexual climax that is orgasm and semen is ejected from his penis. Most men experience premature ejaculation at one time or another. The question is what is the normal time taken to ejaculate after penetration.

You would be surprised that most men ejaculate within two to six minutes after beginning the intercourse and this according to me is normal. But about 18 to 25 percent of men have trouble delaying ejaculation that long; some ejaculating even before penetrating a woman's vagina to their embarrasment

Premature ejaculation can also be defined as an ejaculation that occurs before the man wishes it to occur or when ejaculation occurs too quickly to sexually satisfy his partner

• Psychological: This is the most common cause according to me and constitutes almost 90% of cases; I would like to add that Ayurveda has wonderful remedies for such a situation because the remedies act at the level of the body as well as the mind. Psychological factors that may cause premature ejaculation include:
  • Concerns about sexual performance
  • Lack of sexual experience.
  • Lack of knowledge of female sexual responses.
  • Guilt about sex.
  • Fear of causing a pregnancy.
  • Communication gap between the partners.
  • Fear of being caught having sex.
  • Fear of getting a sexually transmitted disease.
• Prostate problems like prostatitis.
• Neurological problems (Nervous system related).
• Urinary tract infections.
• Thyroid related diseases.
• Hormonal imbalance.
• Medical treatments like beta-adrenergic blockers used to control blood pressure, medicines that increase sexual stimulation and so on

Home Remedies for Premature Ejaculation (PE)

Along with Ayurveda remedies, there are a few ways which would help you delay ejaculation during lovemaking. The aim is to improve your ability to recognize when you are about to come and then take steps to delay it

Practice makes the man perfect

According to me, irrespective of premature ejaculation one should start having sex more often. Because if there are long gaps between lovemaking sessions, you are more likely to ejaculate early. Secondly, with practice you would better your performance because you learn which posture gives you more control and pleasure and what are your limitations and so on.

Apply the "stop-start" approach

This technique involves stimulating the penis almost to the point of ejaculation, then stopping; stimulating it again, then stopping; and repeating this until you learn to control your ejaculations. This you can do while masturbating or the best is to do with your partner on top during sex. She stops when you ask her to and starts to move again when requested by you

Squeeze method

It is basically same as "stop-start" method, but includes gently squeezing the base of penis before stopping

Perform Kegel exercises

Women practice Kegel exercises to strengthen their pelvic muscles after delivery. The same pelvic muscle strengthening exercise that women practice can help men delay ejaculation. It is very easy to to perform Kegel exercises; just contract your buttocks for one second as though you were trying to delay a bowel movement. Do this 15 times in a row, working up to 60 to 75 contractions twice a day. The purpose of Kegels is to strengthen your pelvic muscles so that you can contract or relax as you near orgasm, delaying ejaculation. (An interesting fact is that some men last longer when squeezing the muscles, and others, when relaxing them.)

Do your exercises later

Please do not exercise just before lovemaking. It is because when you exercise the blood is directed towards the group of muscles which are engaged in exercising and the blood is diverted awary from your penis. So, it is not wise to exercise before sex. But I would stress that healthy life style which incorporates yoga and walking is very important to prevent and reverse premature ejaculation

Woman on top postion

Missionary postion that is man on top is the most common position and you would be surprised that in this postition the men are easily aroused and reach orgasm much faster. So, it is advised that it is better let the woman be on top. That way you can easily control her motion by guiding her hips. When you become too aroused and are about to come you can guide her to slow down or stop her motions and you can last much longer in sex.

Diet for better lovemaking

Premature ejaculation is often due to physical changes occuring in the body due to aging. Men over age 30 may begin to have problems with premature ejaculation even though their sex lives were fine when they were younger. The problem is often an inadequate blood supply in the penis. When the arteries in the penis become partially clogged with fat and cholesterol, maintaining an erection becomes more difficult. When this occurs, your brain tells your body that you'd better ejaculate before you lose your erection, and a pattern for premature ejaculation is developed. So, how to deal with this situation. We should live a healthy lifestyle in order to maintain good arterial health. Your potency will be prolonged if you eat a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet, exercise regularly, don't smoke or drink and keep your stress managed

Improved communication

Better interaction with your partner before engaging in sexual activity does a lot for premature ejaculation

Environment.

Having sex in situations that are private and relaxed helps a lot in dealing with early orgasm

Yoga and meditation

It provides much needed physical and mental relaxation much needed to cure premature ejaculation

Massage

Massage by your own partner is an extremely pleasurable activity and very effective at reducing stress
