Appreciable progress in the treatment of impotence has been achieved only in the late 30′s of previous century, when some doctors began to closely examine the possibility of anti-impotence by implantation of elastic plastic materials into the penis of their patients who suffer from male impotence. Doctors were led to the right idea by the genital anatomy of marine mammals, males who have never suffered from lack of erection because their penis has a bone or cartilage framework. Dense cartilaginous structure that bears the name of “penis bone”, can reach giant length. Bone penis male-whale reaches a length of two meters, and a similar formation in male walruses almost one meter. We, humans, simply use Viagra.

In 1992 the urologists in the whole world came to an agreement to use the term of “erectile dysfunction” to define a condition inability of the patient to get or maintain adequate erection.  Such a condition restricts or makes it impossible to have normal sexual relationship.
Unfortunately, erectile dysfunction today is a common and widely spread disease.
Very often a question arises: What is the difference between erectile dysfunction and impotence.  Actually there is no difference except erectile dysfunction is a more modern and more frequently used term, especially in the US. The rest of the world usually use “impotence” to describe this condition.
Impotence (or erectile dysfunction) affects 40% of men aged 35-40. Most men feel awkward consulting a doctor about this problem; however, weak erection or loss of erection during sexual intercourse is already a reason for seeing an urologist or sexologist.

Here are the factors which may cause erectile dysfunction:

* inflammatory diseases affecting the urogenital system and pelvic organs (prostatitis, orchiepididymitis, cystitis, etc.)
*insufficient arterial blood flow in the vessels participating in the mechanism of erection
* diabetes
* hormonal dysfunction
* spinal cord injuries
* penis injuries
* pelvic organ surgeries
* some medicines
* depression, stress

So, impotence may be caused by neurological, endocrine, vascular, medical and topical reasons. Impotence caused by these reasons is considered organic form of erectile dysfunction. However, psychogenic form of erectile dysfunction which is caused by psychoneurological peculiarities is more common.

Almost always when a patient has erectile dysfunction of organic nature a psychological factor is added and very often organic impotence transforms into psychogenic one even in case the organic cause is eliminated.  So, no matter whether you suffer from organic or psychogenic impotence, a complex treatment is needed.

Unwillingness of most men to consult a doctor about impotence is the greatest problem for the urologists in the whole world. Meanwhile, modern medicine disposes a huge arsenal of medicines and other means to help such patients.

Any measure aimed at normalization and enhancement of body functions may become a means for restoring erectile function.  That is why along with other therapeutic measures physiotherapy, laser and magneto-therapy are recommended as well.

Types of Impotence

The symptoms of organic impotence include absence of nocturnal and morning spontaneous erections. The most frequent causes are various vascular pathologies of arterial or venous nature. Researchers showed that sexually healthy men experience 4-6 episodes of erection lasting 10-15 minutes in the period of fast sleep.  General duration of spontaneous erections during night makes up 20% of the whole period of sleep. With age not all of nocturnal spontaneous erections are characterized by rigidity and the number of nocturnal erection episodes with decreased rigidity keeps on growing.

Psychogenic impotence

Psychogenic impotence occurs suddenly and is usually associated with some events in man`s life.  In such case the nocturnal and morning spontaneous erections are preserved. Erection is often induced in response to visual stimulation and erotic fantasies.
