Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is one of those disorders that is seldom mentioned or brought into the open, but is the cause of embarrassment and misery to many men, and also to their partners.

If there is any possibility that there may be a medical reason for the disorder, the first course of action is to see your GP, who, following examination, will determine if further intervention is required. In most cases, this will prove unnecessary.

What is erectile dysfunction?

ED is the inability to achieve a sufficiently good erection for penetration and satisfactory intercourse. Some sufferers can’t get an erection at all, whereas others cannot get an erection they believe is firm enough for penetration.

That’s the first myth! There prevails a notion that a firm erection is required for penetration, whereas in fact a semi-erect penis can achieve penetration, and satisfaction to both partners, with the aid of good lubrication and a modicum of patience.

Other sufferers lose their erection whilst having intercourse, and are dismayed because they feel they have failed in some way. In fact, it is quite normal for the penis to become less firm, and temporary withdrawal, followed by stimulation in whatever form both partners are comfortable with, will often allow a sufficiently good erection for the love-making to continue.

Physical causes of ED

Some of the more common physical causes can be diabetes; smoking (can cause damage to blood vessels, also narrowing of the arteries that lead to the penis, reducing blood flow and the pressure of blood); excessive alcohol; obesity; recreational drugs; side-effects of prescription drugs

ED in younger men

Teenagers and younger men often suffer from ED because they are anxious. Perhaps about having sex; perhaps because they are fearful of not being able to please their partners; maybe because they have a belief their penis isn’t large enough; possibly because of having a use a condom. In any one of these situations, a relaxed and jokey atmosphere will help to alleviate the tension and decrease the anxiety. A willing partner can then explore ways of helping the male to achieve an erection. Assuming he finds the partner attractive enough to want to have sex with them in the first place, it can also be assumed that he will welcome and enjoy that person’s attention!

ED in middle-aged men

Men who have generally had a satisfactory sex life with no previous problems can quite suddenly develop ED. This can be caused by stress due to overwork, exhaustion, bullying from others in the workplace, redundancy, a previous failed relationship or even bereavement.

ED in older men

The majority of older men (let’s say 70 plus) are more than capable of remaining sexually active, so let’s dismiss yet another myth that getting older means less sex!
ED within this age group is often due to deterioration in blood vessels that carry blood to the penis, and in addition there may also be deterioration in the heart or brain arteries. For this reason, seeing your GP becomes a priority, as the ED may be acting as an early warning sign of a heart attack.

How can Hypnotherapy help with ED?

Once you are certain there is no medical cause, then hypnotherapy can help you to resolve the underlying emotional causes, such as: stress, anxiety, lack of confidence, relationship (personal or work-related) and bereavement problems.

Hypnotherapy can also help with alcohol and drug dependency, quitting smoking, weight control and has also been shown to be helpful in controlling diabetes.
You can talk to the Hypnotherapist of your choice in complete confidence, without fear of embarrassment. There’s nothing we haven’t heard before, you can be sure of that!
