During sexual intercourse, both men and women have corresponding reactions and normal sexual performance. If sexual function is abnormal, sexual life may not be very pleasant. This sexual dysfunction can put both men and women in an awkward and insecure situation, especially men. Men may experience normal functions such as libido, erection, and ejaculation during sexual activity, so is sexual dysfunction just one of these obstacles? This article discusses what sexual dysfunction is from a male perspective, which is the specific manifestation of male sexual dysfunction. The most common sexual dysfunction in males is ejaculation dysfunction, erectile dysfunction, and sexual desire suppression.
Ejaculatory disorders
Men will have different types of ejaculation disorders, including premature ejaculation (which means ejaculation before or shortly after the penis enters the vagina), inhibition or delay of ejaculation (which means slow ejaculation), and retrograde ejaculation (which occurs during orgasm, when semen is forced to return to the bladder, instead of being ejaculated from the end of the penis through the urethra). In some cases, premature and suppressed ejaculation are caused by psychological factors, including strict religious backgrounds leading people to believe that sexual behavior is guilty, lack of attraction to partners, and past traumatic events.
Premature ejaculation is the most common sexual dysfunction in men, usually related to the level of tension it exhibits during sexual activity. Certain medications, including some antidepressants, can affect ejaculation, as well as nerve damage to the spinal cord or back. Retrograde ejaculation is common in men with diabetes neuropathy (neuropathy). This is due to nerve problems in the bladder and bladder neck leading to backward ejaculation. In other men, retrograde ejaculation occurs after bladder neck or prostate surgery, or after some abdominal surgery. In addition, certain medications, especially those used to treat emotional disorders, may cause ejaculation problems.
erectile dysfunction
This condition, also known as erectile dysfunction, refers to the inability to achieve and/or maintain an erection. The causes of erectile dysfunction include diseases that affect blood flow, such as atherosclerosis (arteriosclerosis) and nerve disorders; Psychological factors such as stress, depression, and anxiety (tension in sexual performance ability); And injuries to the penis. Chronic diseases, specific medications, and Peloni's disease (penile cavernous sclerosis) can also cause erectile dysfunction.
Sexual desire inhibition
Sexual inhibition or decreased libido refers to a decrease in desire or interest in sexual behavior. Decreased libido may be caused by physical or psychological factors. This situation is related to low testosterone levels. It may also be caused by psychological issues such as anxiety and depression. In addition, diseases (such as diabetes and high blood pressure), certain drugs (including some antidepressants) and problems in love relationships can all cause this symptom.
As mentioned earlier, normal male sexual function refers to the occurrence of normal sexual desire such as erection and ejaculation. Therefore, for men, what is sexual dysfunction? It refers to abnormal changes in normal sexual function such as erection and ejaculation, as well as decreased sexual desire, premature ejaculation, and erectile dysfunction. If these phenomena occur, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible to ensure a happy sexual life.
