Your support reckons The medical science has broadly divided the reason contributing to erectile dysfunction into two parts: organic and psychological. The majority of ED patients display organic component but the fact is, in the most common cases of ED caused by organic faults are, to a great extent, influenced by psychological aspects. These psychological aspects could be loss of self-confidence, anxiety, conflict with the partner, depression in the relationship. The same aspects play an important role in psychological erectile dysfunction. The importance of high level of intimacy and love and the wifes continuous support in treating ED, is undeniable. The foundation As you are the other half of a man suffering from ED, let me ask youhave you ever contemplated on the foundation of your conjugal relationship? Is it a good friendship? Mutual understanding and trust? Just a compromise? A family commitment? Or only sexual attraction? All of the above? Or only one of them? How important is sex in your relationship? Understanding your own self and analyzing what actually you want from your partner is very important for a strong foundation of a marital relationship. The more you are confused, the more are the chances of your being dissatisfied, frustrated and depressed with your life and as severely suffering sexual life. Ignoring this will aggravate the situation, while addressing this, can change things for better. Psychosomatic faade of ED Let me explain the male erectile response to explain the statement above. The male erection is a complex interplay of vascular and neurological actions initiated by the central nervous system that integrates the psychogenic stimuli. The stimuli is source of the urge are desire to have sex, this can be the desire of the person you love, perception etc. Sensory stimuli from the penis are important in continuing this process and help to maintain erection during sexual activity. Men are very sensitive about the support of the partner, be it social, physical and psychological, a slightest hint of disapproval can affect his performance. He may withdraw because of the fear that an unsatisfactory sexual session may ruin your overall relationship. So while undergoing a treatment for ED, the improvement depends upon how supportive and peaceful the relationship is. Lets talk Its important to have a clear communication between you two, let each other know what makes you happy, mentally, physically and spiritually. If you do not know what makes your partner happy, one of you may end up with the feeling I give more than I receive. This mental dissatisfaction in anyone in the couple affects mental and social relationship within the couple and hence the man may face erectile dysfunction while the woman feels she is no more attractive to her husband. The confidence, that you two know each other, love each other, strengthens the relationship from all the dimensions. The process of knowing each other is like wandering in an unexplored, deep forest. Both of you need to be confident, the confidence will flow from the urge to understand each other and experiencing and embracing your own sexual forte and desires along with your partners. Tell your partner what makes you happy sexually and try to understand his fantasies related to sex. This way, you both gain the confidence about each other, that you know what will make the other happy. Love and be loved The prism of love has many colours; empathy, patience, perseverance, compromise that can fight any social, physical and psychological challenges in a relationship. Love is the main spice of life that can take your sexual pleasure to a height where there is no need of Viagra or other temporary measures of fighting ED. You communicate openly and honestly to your partner and let him know that you love him. This understanding will be enough for him to fight all the physical hindrances and he will take you to a never-ending love ride. |
