The urologist called the problems with potency a symptom of several health problems.
Leonid Bokhanov, a urologist at the Scandinavian Health Center, told on Monday, March 30, what diseases can be accompanied by erectile dysfunction. The doctor listed the health problems that cause this symptom.
"An erection depends on several systems at once: blood vessels must expand rapidly and keep blood flowing, nerves must transmit a signal, and hormones must maintain libido and tissue reactivity. The mechanism is sensitive, so if any of these systems fail, potency problems may develop," the doctor explained in a conversation with Lenta.Ru .
According to the urologist, erectile dysfunction can occur with hypertension and atherosclerosis, in these cases it can become one of the first symptoms. Erection problems can also occur due to elevated blood sugar levels and diabetic neuropathy - damage to nerve fibers.
According to the urologist, erections can be negatively affected by spinal injuries, pelvic surgeries, and pronounced hernias with radicular symptoms. Potency problems can also occur with depression, sleep problems, and chronic stress, he added.
Earlier, on March 25, Vladimir Besprozvanny, a urologist and andrologist at SM Clinic, warned of the dangers of prostate adenoma if it is not treated. According to the doctor, an adenoma is a benign neoplasm, but when it grows, the prostate gland begins to squeeze the vessels through which blood flows to the penis.
In turn, Alexey Moiseenko, a urologist and andrologist at the SM Clinic Center for Reproductive Health, told Life.Ru that there are advantages to sitting when urinating. It is believed that in this position, the pelvic floor muscles can be in a more relaxed state, which can facilitate the process of emptying the bladder, especially with prostate problems or a feeling of incomplete emptying.
