Erectile Dysfunction and Smoking
Physical side of any couple's relations is equally important as its emotional side. Whenever something goes wrong with the former it might become a very hard test for some couples however devoted they may seem. The most important thing here is understanding, support and appropriate treatment. ED is not a verdict.
In the U.S. this is a very wide-spread problem and more than thirty million men suffer from it according to the reported statistics. Erectile dysfunction means difficulties with having or maintaining erection. Mostly its causes are attributed to the health problems but it is also lifestyle that should be taken into consideration as well. Smoking and substance abuse is mostly meant by the latter here in this article.
Erection is directly connected with the blood flow and pressure; consequently any failure of this system affects the erection. What concerns smoking in this respect - it is not only harmful for the respiratory system; it affects blood circulation as well. This is how it happens: the hemoglobin in the blood mixes with the carbon monoxide fumes therefore decreasing the oxygen capacity of the blood. The heart valves distort and red blood cells counts lessen all due to the influence of the carbon particles. This directly impairs cardiovascular conditions and evokes arterioscelerosis (hardening of the arteries). The blood flow to any peripheral organs reduces (especially this refers to genitals) therefore affecting the performance. There are also other conditions attributed to smoking like low sperm counts, increased sperm mortality and low sex drive.
It is not necessarily that if you smoke the condition will be evoked by you just doing so. But if this to be the case bear in mind that remedies of Viagra type will not guarantee any effect. They will also fail to help if you have any cardio-vascular problems or diabetes and you smoke. Your chances for a recovery will definitely improve provided you quit smoking not to mention other benefits to your health.
