Facts about female dysfunction or impotence

Dysfunction in male and females is very different.  You can’t ignore the complexities. A few years ago, the term ‘female dysfunction’ didn’t exist. There were not any theories to match the symptoms of male and female dysfunctions. But the scientists constantly gave it a try and came up with a few theories. A woman’s sexual rejoinder is more qualitative rather than quantifiable. It is not possible to come up with the criteria as it can’t be measured objectively. Various health organizations have come up with some common standards to identify and treat impotence in women with drugs and homeopathic remedies.

What is sexual dysfunction? – Any problem during the sexual cycle that prevents the satisfactory experience is termed as sexual dysfunction. It can happen in any of the four phases of a sexual activity – exhilaration, plateau, orgasm and resolution. As per a study, about 40% of women and 31% of men experience it, but most of them hesitate to discuss about it. It can be caused by physical or psychological problems. Diabetes, hormonal imbalance, heart disease, kidney disease and some drugs affect the libido. Stress, anxiety, problems in a relationship and performance anxiety can also make the situation worse.

How does it affect women? – Low sexual desire or interest in sex is the most important symptom. Medical conditions and treatments, hormonal changes, depression, stress, fatigue and pregnancy can decrease the desire to have sex. Care for children, routine sexual activities and boredom can contribute to lack of excitement. Inadequate vaginal lubrication can make you unable to arouse physically. Absence of sexual climax or orgasm can be caused by this inability. This can be treated with homeopathic remedies for impotence. Lack of experience, childhood abuse, sexual trauma and guilt can cause the inability to orgasm. Painful intercourse can also decrease the interest in sexual activities.

Diagnosis and Treatment- Physical exams and through examination of symptoms is required to diagnose the condition. An evaluation of your experience about sex will help the doctor understand the problem easily. Ovarian cysts, pelvic mass, poor lubrication, sexually transmitted diseases and sexual phobia can affect the condition. Homeopathic remedies for impotence can cure these physical problems effectively. The ideal approach to treat female dysfunction is collaboration between sex therapist, doctor and the woman because most of the reasons are psychological. Erotic materials can be used to enhance the stimulation. An education about sexual behaviors and responses is required to overcome the anxieties.

Is the testosterone deficiency related to poor health?

Testosterone is the male sex hormone which is found in reptiles, birds and mammals. It is also found in the ovaries of females and adrenal glands. It plays an important role in the development of testis and prostate in men. It also affects the growth of body hair, bones and muscles. There have been a number of studies conducted on the relationship between testosterone and the man’s health.  Diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure and metabolic syndrome are related to testosterone deficiency in some or the other way. Although the low testosterone is not the main cause of these health disorders, but the connections are interesting.

It can be responsible for male impotency- Depression and Erectile dysfunction (ED) are also caused by its lower levels. In ED, either the person is not able to ejaculate or not able to hold it for longer times. It can happen to anybody. This affects the person psychologically and emotionally. The ED treatment can be done with pharma drugs and the homeopathic medicines. It is related to lower testosterone levels and needs to be cured to come out of this situation. Surgery, implants and drugs can be used to cure the problem. Emotional support and counseling are the one of the effective ways to treat erectile dysfunction.

Diabetes affects the male health – It has been proved that the men with lower testosterone are prone to develop diabetes later because they need to produce more insulin to maintain the blood sugar. Testosterone helps in absorbing more blood sugar than insulin. It has not been confirmed that out of both, which problems cause another. But it is sure that they are linked interestingly. As per a study, the men with this deficiency have 2.1 times higher chances of developing diabetes. There are various homeopathic Ed treatments available to treat the condition.

The link between obesity, metabolic syndrome and low testosterone – Obese men are likely to have low testosterone and the vice versa is also true. Fat cells lower the testosterone level by metabolizing it to estrogen. Obesity also reduces a protein called sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) which carries it to blood. Weight loss and homeopathic Ed treatment can help you achieve the desire to sex back. Waistline obesity, abnormal cholesterol levels and high blood sugar increase the risk of stroke. This is called metabolic syndrome. It has mixed effect on arteries. The arteries can be harder. A certain amount of testosterone is required in blood to maintain the good health.

All about high blood pressure (hypertension)

High or low blood pressure can be a sign of other serious health problem.  As per a survey, one out of four adults has high blood pressure and almost one third are unaware about it. The very big reason behind this is that it doesn’t have any symptoms most of the times. You just need to be aware and get the readings often to catch hold of the situation on time. The heart pumps blood to the arteries and creates a pressure. Constantly elevated pressure in arteries can be termed as hypertension. It can be cured with allopathic as well as homeopathic remedies for blood pressure.

Why excessive pressure is bad? -  Constant excessive force can scar and damage the arteries. The major organs of the body like heart, brain, kidneys and eyes are at the risk of permanent damage in this case. It can also lead to total/ partial blindness, kidney failure, heart failure and stroke. The number of untimely deaths worldwide is increasing due to this. In 90% of the cases, it is very difficult to know the reason behind elevated pressure. The pressure within arteries can also rise due to endocrine disorder. Homeopathic remedies for blood pressure are safe for any age group.

Who can be at risk? – As I already told you that there are not any scientifically proven causes for this health condition. Doctors have accumulated few factors which can put you at the risk of developing it. As you grow older, the chances to develop hypertension increase.  Obesity is another major cause which you cannot ignore. If you have a family history of high blood pressure, you are at risk of developing it. Smoking and heavy drinking increases the pressure of blood. Sedentary lifestyle and excessive consumption of sugar and salt can put you at the risk of developing this condition.

How to treat? - Now you can figure out one of the possible reasons. The next step is how you can deal with this. First and foremost rule is that monitor the blood pressure and keep it under control. Consult your doctor if you find any abnormal readings. Blood pressure can be kept under control with medicines and homeopathic remedies. Get moving with healthy diet and active workouts. Say a big no to fatty junk foods and carbonated drinks. Eat fruits, whole grain, nuts, vegetables and low fat dairy products. Lose the extra weight. Be happy and stay away from stress.
