• Secondary - is due to effects of diseases or other causes
  Nervous system - Multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injuries
  Vascular diseases - Hardening of the arteries caused by arteriosclerosis caused by hypertension, diabetes, increased level of cholesterol and metabolic disorders like kidney failure or liver failure, etc., can damage nerves or blood vessels that are engaged in erection of the penis. Stenosis of the arteries or obstructed or clogged arteries can also cause the same effect.
  Infection - Orchitis, untreated mumps can cause swelling of testis and impotency

Drugs - Anti-hypertensive drugs (betablockers), hormonal tablets, anti-depressants, chemotherapy and other drugs used in treating paralysis can cause impotency.

Effects of impotency

Present way of diagnosis

There is no need for diagnosis and investigations if erection failure occurs once in a while or so. But if it occurs repeatedly without any notable weakness or emotional stress, it should be properly investigated in the early days itself, to treat it or otherwise the more the time delay, the more the problems arises in mind, body and family.
The routine tests are

Hormone tests for testosterone and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
Testicular failure is often indicated by
    * Decreased testosterone level (normal testosterone level - 300- 1100ng/dl) 
    * Increased FSH (normal FSH level - 2-17 ml IU/ml) 
Penile Doppler scans to check arterial obstruction or stenosis and venous leak
Rigi scan - for two consecutive night (in sleep laboratory) to check the occurrence of rigidity or erection in night for diagnosing the cause - whether physical or psychological. If there is no erection at all at night, then mostly the problem will be physical i.e., due to artery stenosis or obstruction or venous leak or others
Semen analysis
Ultra sound scan for prostate problems
Routine blood tests including electrolytes to rule out any metabolic disorders

Advice to sufferer to enjoy sex again as a pleasure 
Caring or precaution or prevention
In general, keep good health with regular good habits and good exercises.
Do's

• Try sexual activity in early morning if there is problem in getting erection, since erection will be more rigid during or after deep sleep and in a cool climate. The success will trigger your mind and body to become normal.

• Don't give much gap between two sexual activities (not more than a week) which may lead to premature ejaculation or erectile dysfunction or dissatisfaction. For this, normal condition can be revived by tuning the frequency of sex itself.

Avoid 

• Stress and strain

• Loneliness and deep thoughts

• Pre-occupied notion or thoughts of poor experience while indulging in sex

• Stimulants like alcohol, drugs, coffee and tea

• Drug cocktails

• Smoking (since it will promote arteriosclerosis and obstruct arterial blood flow) 

• Fatty diet 

Take

• Natural foods, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, honey, milk, meat, egg, etc.

• Recent research shows that drumstick seeds have some aphrodisiac (sex boosting) effect. Also from good old days, garlic, onion, asparagus, cashew, pista, dates are believed to have medicinal effect for impotency.

• But usually people run behind quacks who sell costly, rare 'medicines' which is supposed to have an aphrodisiac effect i.e., rhino horn, moschus musk, horn of deer, vivera civetta (a rare variety of cat), peacock feather, mutilla occidentalis, fat oil from shark, etc. Also some recommend cannabis sativa for boosting effects. People usually think that the thing which cannot be achieved easily or which is high in demand has highest value. But nothing have been proved so far about their efficacy.

Finally for better sex - Spice your spouse or spouse should spice you.

False ideas All childless men are impotent. Aged persons cannot perform sex Masculine and a well-exercised body is more potent

General treatment - First of all, everyone should understand that for getting treatment, age is no bar. Lack of treatment or getting treatment late makes oneself and one's partner suffer psychologically. Impotence is the commonest problem of men which is often corrected easily with treatment and reassurance.

Present way of treatment

Psychological - even before analysing the cause, everyone should be psychologically reassured for complete recovery. Psychological counselling can help 

Hormonal - Sometimes hormonal supplementation will be given when there is a disturbance in hormones. But beware that testosterone therapy can cause cancerous testis or prostate

Early ejaculation - Anti depressive drugs are often used for this type of complaints. This may create dependency or drowsiness or lack of concentration

Physical complaints like artery stenosis and venous leak may need surgical correction

For systemic illness like diabetes and hypertension - the blood glucose and blood pressure should be maintained in a perfectly normal level or otherwise there will be permanent damage in getting erection

For aged - Aged persons generally need more local stimulation or physical arousal since the brain gets atrophied during the ageing process. So getting the mood through psychological arousal gets weakened. But this is normal. No medications are required if they accept nature and life. The word "as before" is often used by these patients during consultation. One thing should be clearly understood: yesterday will not come today and today will not come tomorrow. We must satisfy ourselves with the present situation. They can surely perform sex pleasantly and pleasurably, but not vigorously as before.

Drugs for vim and vigour - These drugs mostly encourage men to use it for recreational use. They have side-effects like headache, flushing, allergic problems and diarrhoea. Even though the market is full of new arrivals, Viagra and Levitra lead the race. They reward sexual life for the time being, by flooding the penis to have a prolonged erection.

Injections - Papaverine is injected into carpora cavernosa to get firm erection for the time being. The common complication of using this injection is priapism.

Organ development - In extreme cases, surgical corrections can be done by inserting two silicon rods into corpus cavernosum to increase the size of the organ and better sex. But this procedure will cause persistent erection all the time. There are many companies and doctors who cheat people by lengthening the size of the penis by selling oils, jellies, tablets, tonics and even some instruments. Unless otherwise the person is in a growing age, it is not possible to increase the size. They have so much confidence that people will not come back or expose them about giving them false hopes or the failure in treatment. Regular erection in a good mood act as an exercise for developing the organ size.

Homeopathic approach - As the main message of this article, don't be depressed or fearful or feel hopeless. A hopeful heart always keeps you happy. Be optimistic. Be cheerful.

Further, there is no need for magic prescription when you keep yourself on the right track, i.e., providing the right treatment for your problem. To recapture your youthful vigour, don't go in for booster drugs. They last only for a few minutes. You will need it again the next day and you will not be able to have sex without those tablets - it will create dependency. Homeopathy never acts as a booster. But it works to make a person normal or revive the active normal state. So Homeopathy drugs can't be used just for recreational purpose or just to boost erection or get the right mood for the time being, like other drugs.
In Homeopathy, erectile dysfunction can be corrected without any dependency or side-effects. It will blend perfection, pleasure and happiness in your life. Homeopathy also cures the most distressing symptoms of the impotency like early ejaculation and flaccid penis. Happiness usually continues after a single success.

Homeopathy treats the patient and not the disease. It gives importance to the feelings of the patient. It cares for each individual and every symptoms of the disease or patient. Individualization is the specialty of Homeopathy.

There are many wonderful drugs for sexual weakness or relaxation of the parts.
