Treating Impotence Problem in Younger Men

Several studies conclude that male impotence usually affects older men, but younger men can also suffer from this condition. It is much more difficult to have an accurate idea of how many young people suffer from impotence or who needs to treat impotent problem, as they are reluctant to talk about their sexual impotence compared with older men. This is perhaps because they feel embarrassed to talk about this problem. However, it is estimated that there are a lot of young people to suffer from this problem.

Causes of impotence in young men

In older men, impotence is often caused by physical changes such as narrowing of the arteries. This is not true in young men; this type of impotence may be in the past linked to various psychological causes. The main cause for the onset of psychological impotence in youth is thought to be anxiety, which in turn can be caused by various problems.

Anxiety may be caused by:

·        Fear of sex or a negative performance.

·        The fear of getting partner pregnant or catch an (sexually transmitted diseases) STD.

·        Lack of experience or bad sexual experience in the past.

·        Be rushed or fear of being caught.

Anxiety is not however the only cause of erectile dysfunction in youth; depression, stress and conflicts with the partner may also have their share.

Facts about the lifestyle

Although impotence in young men is more related to psychological factors, lifestyle issues can also have an impact, such as excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, recreational drugs and obesity. If you are having problems with your erection, it is the reflection of your lifestyle and the changes you can implement to have a positive impact on the problem.
