Men's Health-Erectile Dysfunction
As therapists insist and so many studies and books express, even under perfect conditions a man is not a sex machine who can perform the moment a button is pressed, no matter how much he would like to be or what movies and pulp fiction tell us. Sexual responses are governed by emotions, fears, expectations and experience.
In their parlance sex therapists refer to this impotent phase as ‘psychological impotence’ defining, as we know, that the problems are caused exclusively by the emotions. (Impotence is not being able to achieve an erection or an orgasm and is not to be muddled with infertility which is a temporary inability to produce a child. Infertility is not a symptom of M-M.) No-Go is not a peculiarity exclusive to the male-menopause and countless numbers of men the world over are concerned with it every day. Two particular physical problems can be involved: premature ejaculation (which is when a man reaches orgasm too quickly, sometimes almost as soon as intercourse begins) and ejaculatory incompetence (which is having no difficulty getting an erection but failing to come to orgasm), both due entirely to anxiety. Like all solutions to M-M the answers to the problems are linked with learning new techniques and relaxation, solutions that sex therapists in consultation will explain fully or are found in well-known studies like Masters & Johnson’s Human Sexual Inadequacy.
