Male Organ Problems: How Men Deal With Member Dysfunction in Their 30s

A lot is going on in a man's life once he hits his glorious thirties. His career is hitting its stride, he's likely made some big relationship decisions, he may have kids, and he may have traveled the world and done big things on a community level. However, one thing he may not have counted on encountering in his thirties is member dysfunction. This male organ problem, thought to only happen to older men, is actually quite common in younger men as well. Let’s talk about member dysfunction, why it happens, and how to treat it. What Is Member Dysfunction? Member dysfunction, also known as ED, is a condition in which a man either cannot get a hard-on or cannot maintain one long enough to sustain intimacy to completion. Men can experience mild, occasional, or complete ED at any age. According to a study published in a respected industry journal, about 1 in 4 men under 40 years old was found to have some form of member dysfunction. Member dysfunction is also a male organ problem where the risk increases with age. Causes of Member Dysfunction There is a range of causes of member dysfunction. In younger men, nearly all of them are treatable or preventable. They fall under 2 categories: physical and psychological. Physical Causes When talking about younger men, the physical causes of member dysfunction are frequently tied to lifestyle and general health. Health factors include: • Heart disease • Obesity • Type 2 diabetes • High cholesterol • Low androgen • High blood pressure • Atherosclerosis Lifestyle factors include: • Smoking • Alcoholism • Sedentary lifestyle Psychological Causes Member dysfunction can also be caused by psychological or emotional issues. Intimate or romantic relationships can also have a big impact on a man’s male organ. Here are a few of the emotional/psychological issues that can cause ED: • Depression • Anxiety • Stress • Relationship discord • Cheating • Performance anxiety Treatment Options for Member Dysfunction No matter the cause, ED is a very treatable male organ problem with the help of a good doctor and some lifestyle modifications. The first thing a man needs to do is quite simple: tell his doctor about his member dysfunction. Expect to discuss additional things such as: • Intimate history in general • Current intimate status and activity level • Relationship status and issues • Questions about mental and physical health A man must be brutally honest so that his doctor can accurately treat his ED. A man should expect a physical exam as well. A referral to a urologist also maybe part of the process. Member Dysfunction Treatment: Prescription Medications Let’s get the best-known treatment out of the way; however, these are usually just temporarily treating the symptom, not the underlying issue. Prescription medicationswork by encouraging blood flow to the male organ when it’s sensually stimulated. These medications must be prescribed, are usually quite expensive, and might not be covered by insurance. Member Dysfunction Treatment: Lifestyle Modifications Lifestyle changes are one of the best ways to treat and prevent member dysfunction in younger and older men alike. The following recommendations can help reverse ED and prevent it: • Maintain a healthy weight • Exercise for at least 30 minutes each day and break a sweat • Quit smoking • Eat a healthy, colorful diet • Limit alcohol consumption to 1 to 2 drinks per day • Get 7 to 8hours of sleep each day • Find a way to manage stress, such as meditation or yoga Member Dysfunction Treatment: Devices and Injections In some of the more serious cases of ED, a doctor may recommend a different course of treatment, which can include things like: • Androgen replacement therapy • Injection therapy • Male organ implants Member Dysfunction Treatment: Supplements If a man is uncomfortable taking medication for member dysfunction, he has other more natural options. He may want to take herbal supplements like L-arginine and yohimbe. Be sure to talk to a doctor first, though, to ensure that they don’t have contraindications with any medications that they already might be taking. Many men choose to use another natural option, aspecially formulated member health oil (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which has been clinically proven safe and mild for skin). These types of oils include vitamin C and L-arginine, known vasodilators, to boost hard-ons, as well as vitamins A, B, D, and E and antioxidants in a nurturing shea butter base to keep the male organ flexible and supple. Apply once or twice each day for best results.
