Interpretation of the Four Types of Male Impotence: Four Aspects to Pay Attention to in Preventing Impotence

Erectile dysfunction, also known as erectile dysfunction or erectile dysfunction, refers to the condition where the hardness of the penis's erection is insufficient to insert into the vagina or the duration of the erection is insufficient to complete satisfactory sexual intercourse. In the past, male sexual impotence was referred to as impotence, which was scientifically defined incorrectly and had a discriminatory and derogatory connotation. The incidence rate of impotence accounts for about 50% of adult men. Male sexual dysfunction includes decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, dysfunction of orgasm and ejaculation, and dysfunction of penile weakness, among which erectile dysfunction is the most common male sexual dysfunction. As of 1992, the National Institutes of Health in the United States, after discussions with relevant experts, decided to use the term erectile dysfunction (ED) instead of erectile dysfunction, defining penile erectile dysfunction as the inability of the penis to continuously achieve and/or maintain sufficient erection to achieve satisfactory sexual activity (sexual intercourse).

Interpretation of Four Types of Male Impotence

According to the different age groups and triggering factors of patients with erectile dysfunction (ED), ED can be clinically classified into four types:

Type I: Young men aged 25 or below the legal age of marriage who fail to engage in normal first time and maintain sufficient erection during sexual intercourse are classified as primary erectile dysfunction, accounting for about 13% of the total. It can be caused by family discord, psychological trauma, devout believers, homosexuality, having a history of traumatic sexual intercourse for the first time, and often being in a high state of non-compliance and anxiety.

Type II: middle-aged men aged 25-35, ranging from the legal marriage age to the age of 35, mainly experience excessive mental stress during honeymoon, inability to complete sexual intercourse, masturbation, mental worries, and inability to engage in sexual intercourse.

Type III: Middle aged men aged 30-35 have difficulty stimulating sexual desire under any circumstances, with a significant decrease in penile erection ability and masturbation ability in the morning. This type of patient must receive support and assistance from their spouse during treatment. The cure rate is 12%~26%.

Type IV: Most males aged 50-70 experience significant mental stimulation, resulting in spouse death, divorce, failed erections during genital and urinary tract surgeries, and decreased libido. In patients with acute disease, it is mostly related to atherosclerosis, diabetes, alcoholism and drug poisoning.
