ED Factors

Many stressful life situations can cause erectile dysfunction during the course of a man’s life. Fortunately, most such problems are temporary and the problem of erectile dysfunction improves as the precipitating event recedes into the past. Life events that may affect erectile function in the male can be grouped into three general categories depending on the area of their primary impact: A man’s sense of masculinity, the marital/partner relationship, and relationships with others. All these factors can be controlled with the help of cialis.

Man’s Sense of Masculinity.

A strong sense of masculinity is certainly a prerequisite for satisfactory sexual function in men. What is required to make one feel masculine varies from man to man as do events in life that undermine that sense of masculinity.

With so much emphasis today on health, sports, and the macho image, many men feel inadequate unless they can be nearly perfect physical specimens for their age. Therefore, any deterioration in their physical condition from either a serious, possibly life-threatening illness, such as a heart attack or automobile accident or even a minor sprained muscle, has the potential to produce a devastating effect on a man’s erectile function. Even the “weekend warrior” amateur athlete-type injuries may throw a man’s sexuality for a loop.

Erectile dysfunction problems may also appear when injury, illness, or death strikes a spouse/partner, parent, friend, or close public figure. These events may trigger brooding thoughts over one’s own ultimate physical deterioration and eventual demise, especially if the person who has been stricken is a close contemporary or a role model who has been seemingly invulnerable.
