Here are 10 shocking facts regarding erectile dysfunction that you probably didn't know.
It's not just about achieving an erection.
ED isn't simply about not being able to get an erection, however that is a defining feature of the disorder. The truth is that there are many degrees of ED that affect your ability to obtain and sustain an erection. This means that men with ED may be able to get an erection, but it won't sustain long enough to engage in sexual activity.
In terms of numbers
If you think you're alone in your struggle, the reality that ED affects 52 percent of men in the United States may provide some comfort. ED is more common as people get older. For example, 40% of men in their 40s have ED, while 70% of men in their 70s have it. However, age isn't always a factor.
It's not always about your age.
When it comes to the young and robust, ED does not discriminate. According to studies, 25% of men under the age of 40 have erection problems, while just 5% have full-blown ED.
Erectile dissatisfaction (ED) is a term used to describe erectile dysfunction.
In technical terms, ED is a problem that prevents you from obtaining or sustaining an erection due to a mental or physical issue. However, many men associate a lack of sex satisfaction with ED. If your sex life isn't what it used to be and you're losing interest, it could be a case of discontent rather than erectile dysfunction.
It's in your blood
Many occurrences of ED are associated with vascular issues. Blood fills the vessels in your penis when you have an erection. If you have a cardiovascular problem that causes your blood arteries to become clogged or impaired, it can make it difficult to get an erection. Circulatory difficulties in every region of your body, including your penis, are caused by conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, and diabetes.
It's all about how you live.
Your sexual health, as well as your overall health, is greatly influenced by your lifestyle patterns. Tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption are undeniably associated to ED. Obesity, or carrying too much weight, can also cause erection problems. On these fronts, the good news is that you can take control of your health by reducing alcohol consumption, quitting smoking, and losing weight.
In your head
Because getting an erection is as much a mental as it is a physical process, ED may become a problem if you've been through a traumatic event or are under a lot of stress. Men who suffer from melancholy, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder frequently express their dissatisfaction with their ED.
Hormonal imbalance
Your testosterone levels influence your sexual health in a variety of ways, the most important of which is how they affect your libido. Low testosterone levels can contribute to a lack of sex drive, which can lead to ED.
Breaking up
While it is uncommon, men's penises can "crack," causing major difficulties in obtaining an erection. The break is essentially a bursting of your blood vessels, which can be quite painful and cause swelling.
There's more to life than pills
There are a number of natural options available to you if you have ED that you may not be aware of. To restore your sexual health, we can utilize healing of the trauma, Karsai Nei Tsang genital bodywork, and lifestyle adjustments once we've identified the underlying problem.
The Kama Sutra, the classical Indian text on the art of Love, enumerates the 64 arts. The text advises that these should be studying along with the Kama Sutra, preferably under the guidance of a teacher. These arts and sciences include singing, music, dancing, writing, drawing, painting, sewing, reading, recitation, poetry, sculpture, gymnastics, games, flower arranging, physical sports, martial arts, cooking, decoration, perfumery, gardening, mimicry, mental exercises, languages, mineralogy, etiquette, carpentry, magic, chemistry, gambling, architecture, logic, charm making, household management, disguise, and plus many related to the culture in time.
The Indian texts on love suggest that both men and women should be well-versed in as many of the 64 arts as possible. Here are the main reasons as to why these arts should be studied. First, a person who is accomplished in them is automatically given an honorable place in society.
Second, one can more easily win over the subject of desire, be it husband, wife, or lover, and provide more fulfillment. Third, a single person can easily be self-supporting by the application of these skills.
Indeed, without these modes of expression, our existence would be boring and restrictive. There is no Western equivalent of the Kama Sutra. And perhaps, for this reason, sex as an art form, has yet to mature in the Western world.
Social repression and internalized guilt have prevented modern-day people in the West from a joyous exploration of sexuality. Practically all, that the present-day society offers in this area is pornography or clinical sex manuals, so filled with anatomical details and "techniques", that they would be enough to get a person turned off from sex for life.
One result of this repression is human sexual perversion. The sexual act is rarely tastefully portrayed in Western art or literature. We, as a society, either reject sex altogether or accept the mediocre treatment of it.
Ancient Vedic societies did not consider sex apart from spirituality. The sex act was honored and intimately connected with the other arts. Men and women alike study the Kama Sutra and similar texts.
All variations of sexual positions were portrayed in the temples and venerated as ideals. The entire range of erotic art and literature was considered a normal and respectable subject of study in the privacy of the home.
Celibacy, monogamy, polygamy, and polyandry all had a place in ancient Vedic culture. The 64 Arts should be conceived as the Paths of creative energy. They are the emanations of the Goddess. They can be likened to the flames of an inner sun, blazing from the Solar Plexus. Burning up all negativity, these flames purify the psyche and bring about an inner transformation.
The physical body is the temple of this soul, the microcosm of the universe. All the cosmic principles are found within this temple. All the elements, space, air, water, fire, and earth, are found within the body. The art of worship in the Temple of the body consists in focusing the creative attitude by channeling the sexual energy upward. This energy, experienced as an ecstatic thrill, rises up from the sexual region and flares at the solar plexus.
The 64 vital flames burn up all the negativity and purify the psychic pathways. This process manifests as the ecstatic emotion which no words can describe. The sexual experience becomes more potent through knowledge of the psychic pathways. One can consciously experience orgasm and illumination by practicing the secret Tantric techniques. The inner process of "self-worship" in the Temple of the Body" takes place on every level, from the physical to the most subtle.
It is important to regard the body as a temple. The bodily temple should be kept clean, healthy and harmonious, to respect the divinity within. By worshipping in the Temple of the Body during love-making, all desires are fulfilled. That sensual love as an act of great magical and spiritual power is one of the main principles of Tantra.
Karsai Nei Tsang is a traditional form of therapeutic genital healing and detox bodywork (also called sexual organs detox therapy) originating and exercised in Thailand and applied for both men and women. Karsai was popularized by Master Mantak Chia, who integrated the practice in his so-called Universal Healing Tao System (UHT).
The healing modality is closely related to Chi Nei Tsang, which is a therapeutic healing work for the abdominal area and internal organs. In fact, Karsai is a specific specialization of Chi Nei Tsang with a more precise focus on the genital organs. “Karsai” means sedimentation in the veins and “Nei Tsang” means working on or transforming the internal organs.
The goal of a Karsai treatment is to cleanse, stimulate and heal the genital and reproductive system by dissolving sediment clogging in the blood vessels (crystal-like sedimentation, toxins, and fat deposits) and releasing tensions and blockages in the genital system.
Blockages can cause organs to malfunction, notably the kidneys, bladder, liver, spleen, pancreas, lung, prostate gland, testicles, ovaries, uterus, and vagina.
The result of cleansing the genital system is an improvement of blood circulation in the body and specifically, blood flow into the genitals and genital area, which benefits functions such as sexual arousal, sexual vitality, and balanced hormonal release, with the latter specifically stimulating the sexual and reproductive capacity and functions.
Karsai Nei Tsang becomes particularly important for men and women over forty (when blockages and sedimentations start to happen more frequently) and for anyone in general who feels sexually blocked or has fertility issues. On the whole, one could say that Karsai Nei Tsang aims at health issues associated with the sexual organs and sexuality, frequent and difficult urination, premature ejaculation, problems having or maintaining an erection, fertility problems, prostate problems, menopause, ovarian cysts, impotency, painful menstruation or painful intercourse, painful scar tissue after giving birth, and low sexual libido.
On an emotional level, it’s clear that better sex life, whether connected to reproduction or perhaps rather to sensuality and eroticism, results in significant stress relief and a better, more happy, and balanced person. In addition, emotional issues due to a sexually repressive childhood or upbringing can be resolved.
As with Chi Nei Tsang, the relaxation or reduction of muscle tension, knots, tangles, and twists in the abdominal and pelvic area can release old trauma (sexual or otherwise) that was bound into cell tissue. Additionally, Karsai Genital massage is said to alleviate lower back pains, and stimulate a better memory, while improving body alignment, strengthening the pelvic floor muscles, overall resulting in a better general vitality and fitness.
When done well, a Karsai session is preceded by a Chi Nei Tsang Abdominal treatment, slowly moving in deeper into the genital area.
The treatment can engage in only external work in the groin, lymphatic glands, or can include internal work also. This counts for both men and women.
For men work is done internally on the prostate and externally on the testicles and scrotum. Work is also done around the anus.
Needless to say, Karsai is not a sensual erotic massage. Moreover, sometimes it can be painful. Note also that the treatment may bring up unpleasant past memories and feelings. Nevertheless, a session may provoke an orgasm or ejaculation, which is fully accepted if it happens during the treatment and is nothing to be ashamed of.
General contraindications for the Karsai treatment are active menstruation, recent surgery, a cardiac pacemaker, pregnancy, alcohol intoxication, fever, or active cancer. As with Chi Nei Tsang, it’s also advised not to eat two to three hours before the session (drinking is no problem).
