Excessive Intake of Tobacco May Hamper the Sexual PerformanceTobacco is being consumed by people over the last several years and the practice is still on rise. Tobacco enters the body through a number of sources; these are cigarettes, cigars and other forms of tobacco. It has wide implications in health and fitness affecting the body through heart diseases, diseases of blood vessels, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, impotence and other sexual problems.
Smoking can have adverse impact on men's sexual life. Tobacco the only content present in cigarettes raises the risk of Impotence, popularly known as Erectile Dysfunction. Research work done in this regard shows that more than 1300 men who smoke are at risk of getting Erectile Dysfunction. The rate is higher in people above 40 years of age but there have been cases where young people have also suffered. If we believe in the stats, smokers are about three times more prone to Erectile Dysfunction as compared to non-smokers of the same age.
Efforts and measures should be put in this direction because a large group of people is being affected by the disease. The government and the non-government organizations are working on curbing the habit of smoking and consuming tobacco but there has been very little success in this regard. Though there are proper warning labels on the packs of cigarettes but that has hardly done any good. So, some more work needs to done in this regard, may be taking stern actions against smoking in public or the sale of tobacco products near or around public vicinity. Thailand has come up with an effective idea where the packs of cigarettes have warnings of Sexual Impotence in men. So, we could soon find these warnings on the packs of cigarettes
WARNING: SMOKING CAUSES MALE SEXUAL IMPOTENCE
WARNING: SMOKING DAMAGES SPERM
WARNING: SMOKING MAY DAMAGE YOUR SEX-LIFE
Cigarette smoke contains around 4,000 chemicals. These are the ones that damage the vascular system, including carbon monoxide, nicotine, and 1,3- butadiene. There are nearly 40,300 premature deaths every year in UK due to heart and circulation diseases that have been caused solely due to smoking.
Smoking damages the arteries and veins supplying blood to the penis that complicates the problem causing Erectile Dysfunction. During an erection, large quantities of blood flow, under pressure, into the penile arteries. This causes the veins, which drain the penis to become compressed, so preventing the immediate outflow of blood. This process is significantly impaired by smoking.
Nicotine stimulation in brain stops arterial blood flow into the penis, which in turn causes early contractions in penile tissue. This is known as acute Vasospasm. The valve mechanism that traps blood in the penis is impaired as a result of nicotine in the blood. This is known as venous dilation.
Smoking may cause these sexual disorders:
Less ejaculation
Less sperm count
Abnormal sperm
Impaired sperm motility
Remaining sexually fit is the prime concern of every individual but there are certain bad habits that hamper the sexual health and the normal sexual performance. So, you must stay physically and sexually fit in order to have a long life and prolonged sexual performance.
