The special ability of middle-aged men is actually "in urgent need"

The 38-year-old manager Gu was under great pressure at work and was busy with social activities at night, which led to smoking and drinking, and his weight got out of control. What makes him most uneasy is the loss of sexual desire and ability, which is often accompanied by anxiety, depression, poor sleep and damaged self-esteem. The relationship between husband and wife also begins to become a little tense... This is a typical example among countless middle-aged men. The burden of career and family, strained interpersonal relationships, and emotional depression can all lead to a decrease in male sexual desire and ability.

Unintentionally formed bad living habits further contribute to the declining sexual ability. Studies have shown that long-term smoking leads to chronic nicotine poisoning, which can cause loss of libido and is a risk factor for reduced sexual ability. Excessive drinking often leads to sexual inhibition and even loss of sexual ability, making it impossible to complete sexual intercourse. Recent studies have found that alcohol can damage the testicles, and anti-testicular antibodies may appear in the blood, which may be accompanied by testicular atrophy and decreased sexual ability. Although alcohol can "increase desire", studies have shown that more than half of chronic alcoholics have decreased sexual ability; obese patients are prone to diabetes or high blood pressure, all of which can lead to a decrease in sexual ability. Obese men may experience lower testosterone levels and higher estrogen levels in their blood, leading to decreased sexual desire and sexual ability.

Extraordinary strategies for middle-aged men

1. Self-psychological adjustment: When encountering worries and sorrows, you should think calmly and not carry a mental burden for a long time. You should relax and adjust your tense mentality in time to ease and eliminate anxious emotions. Doing things you like, such as listening to music, participating in group activities, reading useful books, or talking to family and friends, will make you feel better and your sexual repression will gradually subside.

2. Actively participate in physical exercise. Continuous and appropriate physical exercise and outdoor activities will be beneficial to you. Sticking to daily exercise can regulate intense mental work or neurohumoral disorders, such as jogging or walking for 30 minutes every day. Strive for a regular life, ensure adequate sleep, and actively lose weight.

3. Avoid bad living habits and unhealthy eating habits, reduce social activities, avoid alcoholism, control diet, and fully realize the importance and necessity of quitting smoking.

4. If necessary, you should go to the hospital to rule out urinary system diseases, such as chronic prostatitis, epididymitis, urethritis, or other endocrine diseases and various systemic chronic diseases.

5. Family care and family harmony help eliminate tension in work and life. When it comes to her husband’s decreased sexual desire and ability, her wife should treat it calmly, be tolerant, show care and consideration, eliminate his or her worries, and actively cooperate with treatment.

6. Actively treat people who have emotional problems and are depressed, which is manifested in Chinese medicine as liver qi stagnation. They can take Chinese patent medicines that soothe the liver and relieve depression, such as Xiaoyao Powder, Yueju Pills, and Chaihu Shugan Pills. For those with more stubborn sexual dysfunction, Chinese and Western medicine can be combined for treatment. At the same time, you need to overcome psychological barriers and seek help from a psychologist if necessary.
