How to cope with impotence, if it is psychological in nature

For any man, a dip in bed is considered the most terrible moment in life. And if impotence comes, it is a tragedy. The reasons for this state are great, but there is an impotence whose roots go into psychological factors. Psychological impotence can overtake a man of any age: a young guy or an experienced man in love affairs.

Why men become psychological impotents

The loss of erectile function against the background of the emotional state of a man is distinguished by the psychological origin of the pathological process. Often the fault of such a disorder is problems with his wife or at work, with a friend or child. Constant exposure to stressful effects, lack of time and inability to relax in a psycho-emotional plan lead to the development of psychological impotence.

Warning! Causes of psychological erectile disorder are caused by problems hiding in the head, because this pathology is treated quite difficult. After all, the drugs here are practically powerless. The main emphasis in treatment is being made to help a psychiatrist.

Psychoanalysts and sexologists identify several factors that lead to impotence of a psychological nature:

1. A prolonged depressive state, when a man has an apathetic attitude to the whole environment, in particular, to women, he falls in the spirit and loses confidence that it has a very negative effect on sexual life;
2. Sexual life disorder. If a man is inclined to frequent changes in sexual partners, this leads to fatal consequences. A man is fed up and he has no sexual interest. Only a constant and single partner can provide a harmonious relationship in sexual and emotional terms;
3. Response to condom. Many men with the use of such a remedy excitement disappears, disappears attraction and erection;
4. Sexual trauma, suffered in childhood, can negatively affect the sexual possibilities. Any factor from inadequate education to sexual violence can act as an injury;
5. Unsuccessful attempt to commit sexual intercourse is capable of long ingestion in the male subconscious to float up in the form of a memory before each sexual intimacy. The man is afraid of repetition, therefore he is in constant tension;
6. Pathological phobia in the process of sexual intercourse receiving any venereal infection( hypochondria) or fear of unplanned pregnancy causes a man to avoid intimacy, resulting in the development of psychological impotence;
7. The long period of abstinence also negatively affects the quality and strength of the erection, so several first attempts at intimacy can fail, which entails a whole complex of consequences from nervous breakdown and irritability to persistent impotence of psychological origin;
8. Drugs or alcohol. Being under the influence of such substances, a man risks becoming impotent, as they break brain and nervous system activity, dull sensitivity and consciousness, contribute to the achievement of euphoric state, followed by this depression and apathy;
9. Problems with self-esteem. Excessive self-confidence or lack of faith in one's own powers are equally dangerous for the male libido and can lead to a lack of sexual satisfaction;
10. Women's indifference, lack of sexual interest and attraction on the part of the wife severely affects the psychoemotional state of a man - he feels his uselessness and sexual incompetence, which causes aggressive and stressful conditions leading to psychoemotional impotence;
11. In rare cases, impotence of a psychological nature is caused by sexual uncertainty, a change in sexual orientation.

To eliminate these conditions requires a long and persistent psychological work of a professional, helping to overcome such phobias, injuries and disorders. What are the features of erectile dysfunction of a psychological origin

Recognizing the symptoms of advancing psychological erectile dysfunction is quite simple. Spontaneous erections in the night or in the morning, uncontrollable, weak-intensive, unstable erection, periodic repetition of erectile dysfunction in the process of sexual intercourse - all this indicates the development of psychosexual problems.

This is interesting. Medicine knows cases when a constant sexual partner of a man did not have any problems, but in relation to other women manifested psychological impotence. A man seems to get used to the caresses and body of a woman, almost horrified by the rest.

Forcing to think about the development of psychological impotence and such symptoms:

• Early ejaculation or its absence;
• Difficulties with achieving orgasm;
• The oppressed libido;
• No sexual desire.

All this can signal serious problems with the erectile function of a man, so it requires immediate medical involvement in order to identify the causes, as well as correct and correct problems.

Methods for correcting sexual possibilities

In the treatment of this disease, the main focus is on psychological help, because its causes are hidden in the psychoemotional sphere of a man who is recommended to adequately assess his condition. Psychological impotence is not treated with medicines, it requires a completely different therapeutic approach. To begin with, it is necessary to eliminate the factors that negatively affect the potency, to normalize the sexual mode and lifestyle, to exclude stress.

If the causes of pathology are hidden in a pathological or endogenous depressive state, the patient is prescribed a course of anxiolytic and antidepressant drugs, and against stressful conditions - restorative and tonic drugs. Almost all specialists use PDE-5 inhibitors( Tadalafil, Sildenafil, Udenafil, Vardenafil) in the treatment of psychological impotence, which reception is shown before the final disposal of psychogenic disorder.

Important! Impotence of psychological origin arises, as a rule, suddenly. The starting factor can be a serious scandal at work or a quarrel with his wife.

The main psychotherapeutic direction in eliminating mental impotence is overcoming the man's fears associated with possible setbacks in bed. For this reason it is recommended to conduct psychotherapeutic conversations together with the spouse, and not only with the man. To get rid of the neurosis accompanying sexual failures, the use of sedative medications is recommended. Such aids help a man get rid of phobias and eliminate tension, they are resorted to only once before sexual intercourse( in a few hours).
