How to restore potency at home – this question is asked by many men. Before you go to the doctor, why not try to fix the problem yourself? In this article, we will explore the available methods for self-medication.

What is potency

By and large, potency and erection are practically the same thing. They talk about potency only in relation to men. There is no such concept in the physiology of women. Potency is the physical readiness of the male genital organ for intercourse.

With sexual arousal, a man develops an erection, the penis increases in size, acquires firmness, which makes it possible to perform frictions (movements) during coitus (sexual intercourse). Let’s figure out why such metamorphoses occur with the male member.

The mechanism of an erection

The erectile tissue of the penis consists of the cavernous (cavernous) bodies, they are filled with blood, increasing the size of the penis, expanding it and providing the necessary firmness. The duration and strength of an erection are a consequence of the blood pressure in the corpus cavernosum. When the penis is at rest, the blood pressure is very low. During blood flow to the cavernous bodies, blood circulation increases by about 25 times. The pressure rises significantly.

The cavernous bodies filled with arterial blood press on the veins and they are partially compressed, although they do not completely overlap. But the message of the bladder and urethra overlaps and this makes urination impossible.

It is the blood pressure in the corpora cavernosa that affects the stability of the erection. If it is stable, the blood flow and outflow are the same, the hardness of the penis does not change. As soon as the venous outflow begins to prevail, the erection decreases. Ejaculation increases venous return and erection disappears after ejaculation.

When the work of the vessels is disrupted, then blood circulation suffers, the outflow will prevail even without reaching orgasm and ejaculation. To activate blood flow to the penis, the brain must receive a signal from the nervous system. Such a signal comes through a neural network. It weakens the resistance of the muscles and the corpus cavernosum is filled with blood. 

After sex, the male body needs time to recover – a period of refraction. At a young age, this period is very short. The older the man, the longer the refraction. At about 40 years old, she approaches three o’clock.

Reasons for a decrease in potency

Health status affects potency. There are many reasons for its decline. Often:

• Disruptions in the production of hormones, especially testosterone.
• Diabetes mellitus and its vascular complications.
• Obesity. With a mass of more than 90 kg, the production of testosterone and other male sex hormones decreases. Junk food, according to doctors, contributes to the deterioration of erectile function.
• Diseases of the genitourinary system.
•  Diseases of the liver.
• Prostatitis.
• Bacterial infections.
•  Bad habits: alcohol abuse, smoking, drugs.
• Improper diet, leading to a lack of vitamins and minerals in the body.
• A sedentary lifestyle, when a man sits motionless for most of the day (gamers, office workers, etc.) and there is a banal systematic violation of blood flow in the pelvic organs. Add extra weight to this and get blood stagnation.
•  Vascular diseases that impair blood circulation, stagnation of blood in the vessels.
• Psychological problems: depression, stress, anxiety, fatigue. Sometimes psycho-emotional stress before waiting for a meeting, fear of intimacy.
• Adenoma of the prostate is a benign enlargement of the prostate that affects many men after 50-60 years of age. The disease is accompanied by prostatitis against the background of a decrease in hormonal levels and erectile dysfunction.

Ways to restore potency on your own

It is possible to restore masculine strength on its own if the man is healthy enough, does not have irreversible complications from a bunch of concomitant diseases and does not take a bunch of drugs (which themselves can reduce potency). There are many ways for this, everyone chooses suitable for himself, based on the state of health and the severity of erectile dysfunction, the duration of sexual abstinence.

To increase an erection on an intimate date, medications and folk remedies are used that create a rush of blood to the genitals. For a complete cure and a stable increase in potency, an integrated approach is needed: rejection of bad habits, proper nutrition, exercise, attention to psychological health.

Pharmacy remedies for potency

Tablets and dietary supplements, vitamins to restore potency

Vitamins B1 and B2 affect muscle activity and the functioning of the nervous system, on which an erection depends. Their presence in the diet is necessary to improve the functioning of the genitourinary system.

Vitamin D restores normal hormone production, including testosterone.

Nicotinic acid reduces the production of “excess” cholesterol, which improves blood circulation. A man needs cholesterol to synthesize hormones, but its amount should not exceed the norm. Otherwise, it begins to be deposited on the walls of blood vessels, forming sclerotic plaques and obstructing blood flow.

B6, B9 prevent vasospasm, have a beneficial effect on the nervous system and blood circulation, restore normal sperm production.

Folic acid supports the nervous system and prevents the onset of “psychological” impotence.
