If a man is not getting a good night's sleep, he may suffer from more problems than just tiredness.
Two new scientific studies have shown that sleep disorders are linked to high incidence of erectile dysfunction. In particular, sleep apnea can cause regular deprivation of oxygen during episodes of obstructed breathing. A study conducted on animals indicates that a lack of oxygen suffered during obstructive sleep apnea led to decline in daily spontaneous erections by 55%.

Lack of quality sleep can cause a wide range of health complications such as erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence.

In an inverse manner, researchers found that men with erectile dysfunction were twice at risk of sleep apnea than those without erectile dysfunction. People getting low sleep levels (less than five hours) are at high risk of developing calcification in their blood vessels.
It has been found that for every extra hour of sleep, 레비트라복용법 the risk of developing calcified arteries drop by 33%. Further, it is verified that those getting ample amount of sleep (greater than 7 hours) had a much lower incidence of artery blockage. These blockages in the blood vessels can interrupt the free flow of blood to the penis and lead to erectile dysfunction.

Another big risk factor for impotence is inflammation. A 2008 scientific study revealed that a few hours of disturbance in the normal sleep pattern can lead to significantly increased inflammation levels throughout the body.

This is mainly attributed to increased levels of certain chemicals in the body due to insufficient sleep. Testosterone is critical for androgen receptors on the penile muscles that contract and trap blood in the penis for longer lasting erections. Sleep disorders can also be correlated with lower testosterone levels.
It is well known that when you get up after a good night's rest, you feel good. Libido, morning erections, strength, and general attitude are all symptoms of high testosterone that dramatically increases after a good night sleep.

Further causes erectile dysfunction
A small interruption in any of the processes can take a toll on a man's ability to achieve an erection. Several physical and psychological factors can also be attributed to erectile dysfunction. Statistically, about eight in ten cases of erectile dysfunction are due to physiological factors.

Below is a list of other impotence causes:

Insufficient blood flow to the penis– It is essential to have an uninterrupted, free flow of blood to the penis to achieve an erection. But due to certain health conditions, the arteries carrying blood to the penis can be narrowed or blocked.

An enzyme called PDE-5 (phosphodiesterase-5) can affect the normal contraction-relaxation process of the penile arteries, which may interrupt free flow of blood to the penis, leading to erectile dysfunction.

Medicinal side effects – Side effects of certain medications such as beta-blockers, antidepressants, and diuretics can affect an individual's ability to get an erection when sexually aroused or maintain an erection throughout sexual intercourse.

Medicinal approach to impotence treatment
Prescription medications such as Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis are considered effective methods of impotence treatment.

These medications belong to a class of drugs known as PDE-5 inhibitors. It is essential to consult a doctor before taking any of these impotence medications.
