In clinical practice, more than half of patients with impotence have long-term emotional distress, and people with emotional distress may experience symptoms of impotence. It is worth noting that at this time, the patient's erectile function is often normal, but the patient is not interested at all, leading to occasional impotence. Once the depressed mood is corrected, the function of the penis will also be restored, and the symptoms of impotence will disappear.
In addition, long-term negative emotions can lead to depression over time. A study shows that 25% to 90% of depressed men are accompanied by varying degrees of impotence, and the reason why depression causes impotence is currently unclear. But most of these patients can be treated. It should be noted that the side effects of certain antidepressants have also been proven to cause erectile dysfunction.
In China, about 10% of adult males suffer from varying degrees of impotence. More than 50% of men over the age of 40 suffer from impotence (erectile dysfunction). Generally speaking, impotence can be divided into organic impotence, psychological impotence, mixed impotence where organic lesions and psychological stress intersect, and drug-induced impotence according to their causes. Among them, psychological impotence is a comprehensive symptom that is related to many factors such as the patient's physical condition, mood, marital relationship, and so on.
Impotence and depression are prone to complications
Impotence and depression have become two common diseases in modern men, and they often accompany each other, causing and causing each other, easily forming a vicious circle. Impotence and depression coexist and interact with each other, increasing the difficulty of clinical treatment and bringing greater pain to patients. Therefore, there is an urgent need for more direct and effective treatment methods. Both depression caused by impotence and impotence caused by depression can be improved through medical and surgical treatment, thereby building confidence and alleviating depressive symptoms.
Farewell to bad emotions can cure impotence
To treat impotence caused by emotions, it is necessary to prevent depression. First of all, adjust your mood, don't suspect yourself because of occasional impotence, and don't indiscriminately take aphrodisiacs; Secondly, partner cooperation is also important, and partner attitudes are crucial to the treatment of patients. Nowadays, many experts advocate "physical and mental co treatment, co diagnosis between husband and wife", believing that the understanding and encouragement of partners are the key to getting patients out of the psychological shadow, and the treatment of impotence should not only attach importance to physical treatment, but also solve psychological problems; Finally, it is necessary to actively seek medical attention and take medication scientifically and persistently.
