Title: Things that can Effect your Erection
Post by: Bubba dawg on December 17, 2018, 06:12:30 AM
Porn and masturbating. Masturbating to porn. How exciting is your average woman compared to a porn star? Normal sex can become boring compared to porn sex. Porn sex can make you feel inadequate .
Too much masturbation can effect your ability to get an erection during sex.
Anything that speeds your mind up ie caffeine,  vitamins, smoking etc. The disconnect between mind and penis can happen.
Smoking. Smoking narrows the arteries to the penis. Smoking speeds your mind up.
Lack of sugar or too much sugar. I find I get a strong erection when I eat vanilla ice cream sometime during the day. Will help me that night or the following morning. Could be milk or could be sugar.
Riding a bicycle can hurt your ability to get an erection.
Anti depressants. Anxiety meds. Prostrate meds.
Lack of confidence due to peyrones.
Eating a big meal before sex
Very low testosterone
Drinking too much alcohol drinks.
Spine and disk problems .Maybe a visit to a Chiropractor will help.
These do not fit everyone. Not everybody is effected the same way by anything. Just some things to consider if you have Erectile Dysfunction. Some Erectile Dysfunction problems cant be changed by anything other than a medical procedure or medicines. Somethings you can do to improve a temporary Erectile Dysfunction problem

in addition, I am mentioning depression is one of the major effects for erection. Nowadays peoples are getting busy and because of office workloads they falling into a depression so we need to take care of it.

I take antidepressants and they do not affect my erections.  Everyone is different.  It is a condition you cannot place a blanket statement across.  I also drink.  I had excision and grafting surgery and still get nightly erections.  What I can "get away with" doesn't mean anyone else can.  For me the lack of knowledge and information out there about peyronie's really is the core of this discussion.  If someone told me definitively that if I didn't do this or I did that it would fix my condition I'd be all in.  We are not there by a long shot

Agreed.  I will say porn has a desensitizing effect in that the more you see naked women involved in a sexual act, the less arousal you eventually get and need a more powerful way to get to a certain point.

Another thing about porn is that you can become bored with real sex. Not many women can compete with the  beautiful Porn girls. So your woman may not turn you on anymore. There is also a different thought process that goes on when masturbating to porn than having actual sex.
I starting taking Pepper supplements and Korean Panax ginseng. Cayenne capsules and Jalapeno pepper(Baked chips). My nocturnal erections have returned. About every time I wake up, I have a hardon lol Seems that peppers relax things to make the blood flow. So does the Ginseng

BubbaDawg, ethanol alcohol IS ethanol alcohol.  Any number of things can psychologically affect people and their erections but physiologically, your body does not respond to drinking ethanol from one source differently than from another source.  It only responds to blood ethanol levels regardless of the source.  the quantity and the rate of intake are the factors that influence blood alcohol because all forms of drinking ethanol alcohol are chemically identical.  The absorption rate is influenced by the rate at which the alcohol goes into the stomach and the rate it is absorbed into the bloodstream from the stomach.  The latter is affected by the presence of fat or protein in the digestive system but NOT by the type of beverage.  I have participated in pretty precise experiments on rates and quantity or alcohol consumption and rates of absorption and how they affect blood alcohol and how blood alcohol, in turn, affects physical and mental functioning.
