What is Male Sexual Performance?
For the longest time, men have been stereotyped as sex machines that are ready to perform at the drop of a hat. While this may be partly true for some men, for many it is not. Men, just like women, can also be overly tired, stressed or not be in the mood for sex.
Factors such as these may trigger sexual problems. Because this particular topic is quite sensitive, men tend to avoid speaking about sexual dysfunction and don’t seek the help they need.
Diagnosing Male Sexual Performance Problems
There are various sexual problems that men may encounter such as erectile difficulties or impotence, premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, low libido or sexual performance anxiety. These types of sexual disorders can result in an unfulfilling encounter for one or both partners and might lead to a man questioning his virility.
What Causes Male Sexual Performance Problems?
The inability to perform sexually can lead to anxiety which, combined with the memory of the previous failure, can lead to the avoidance of sexual activity. Poor self esteem, reduced intimacy in the relationship and a lack of spontaneity can all also hamper sexual responsiveness and performance.
Modern day living can also impair sexual performance with increasing work stressors and family demands resulting in fatigue and a lack of energy.
Help for Male Sexual Performance
Improving your sexual health and having great sex is certainly an achievable goal. Many men use male sexual performance enhancers to enhance their sexual performance as well as their partner’s experience. Most of these enhancers have been designed to help a man achieve a fuller erection and to maintain it long enough to achieve ejaculation and satisfaction for both partners.
Popular drugs have some serious side effects and when taken with other medications, may even cause a heart attack. More serious sexual problems such as infertility may need to be evaluated by a doctor and counseling may also be recommended.
In order for any sexual performance enhancer to work successfully, men need to first and foremost look after themselves. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle that includes eating well balanced meals, regular exercise, reducing stress and practicing safe sex can all contribute to healthy sexual performance and libido.
