So the internet – what a fantastic thing it is, right? You can find almost anything you could ever want on the internet and do almost anything you want. So it really comes as no surprise that sex would be one of the most search things online; you know the saying, “sex sells.” However, too much of a good thing, can be extremely bad when its causing your manhood not to work properly. Yup, we are talking about porn-induced erectile dysfunction. The porn you’ve been using your browsers incognito mode on, may in fact be preventing you from keeping it up in real life situations.
Porn has become such a powerhouse on the internet that out of the top 50 most visited sites on the porn website known as Pornhub ranks 37th. Now, whether or not this should lead to a round of applaud or a need for more restriction is up to debate.
And why you may ask?
For many reasons. Porn not only causes a denigration of grey matter in the brain but it also leads to severe porn-induced erectile dysfunction.
This condition has become so prevalent over the past few decades, and as a result, many men have erectile dysfunction and having a tough time keeping it up and for many men just getting it to stand up.
According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), around 30 million men in America have erectile dysfunction.
The primary reason for this condition to occur in men are due in part to:
- Stress
- Alcoholism
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Drug Abuse
- Obesity
- Spinal Cord Injury
- Low Testosterone
These are just some of the conventional ways in which a person can develop this type of condition but more recently as porn has become a leading factor in why so many men have developed this condition.
Excessive amounts of masturbating along with easy access to thousands of videos of women lower testosterone in men.
Porn Is An Addiction (The Root of Porn-Induced Erectile Dysfunction)
Much like a drug or alcohol – porn allows some people to escape their reality and enter into a mystifying world. Porn however exciting is like anything that can bring temporary joy, an addiction.
There are some that argue against porn being an addiction, but for those who do see this as an addiction it lights up the same areas of the brain as those who use other forms of addiction. The primary argument is that there are no withdrawal signs from not watching porn but with the porn-induced erectile dysfunction, it can be surmised that this may very well soon count as a form of addiction.
What Are Some Reason Guys Prefer Porn Over Real Sex
-
Real Life sensation No Longer Cuts It
This may seem like a weird case but real life sex and feelings can be numbed out by what masturbating to porn can deliver. Excessive masturbation has the effect of causing muscle memory in that region of the body. The sex organs can get used to the specific sensation, and as a result, having a new feeling can do little to nothing for the person.
-
Issue With Self-Esteem
Porn has the effect of really killing man’s ego as well as fascinating him at the same time. Because most guys are very comparative, which in a sense is really BETA, they watch what they see in a porn film and then feel inadequate.
If you don’t know what we are talking about – and we are sure you do – we are getting at the size of a man’s best friend. This comparison makes out guys ashamed at their own manhood and thus prefer to stick to porn over the real thing.
-
The Real Thing Seems Boring
Porn provides hundreds to thousands of videos that can satiate any man’s desires and for this reason, the real thing for some guys, that one female, can feel a bit boring. Porn fantasizes many words and acts, and this is one of the primary reasons this has become so appealing to many guys.
-
The Visuals and The Audio
Sex films have scenes that switch to the most graphic and most eye-popping view to come across. The visuals in the movies really help to lead to more excitement for the guy. When compared to the real thing – and not to beat a dead horse but for many guys, porn is a much more joyous experience than the real thing. And the professional lighting and background music all help to create a scene that just cannot be beaten in the real world.
Is There A Cure
Luckily this condition, porn-induced erectile dysfunction, can be reversed and all that it requires is a bit of willpower. It is recommended that the who have developed this condition abstain from watching porn for about 90 days.
The brain will switch from getting aroused from 2-dimensional women on screen to that of being aroused yet again by women in the 3-dimensional world.
The stages of recovery will be tough and challenging, but if you can get through these five stages, which we will list below, you can reverse this condition.
Stage 1:
You will have intense cravings to watch porn (This may be a no-brainer, but this is the first stage that you must pass.).
Stage 2:
After about two weeks there will be a slight increase in your libido, and you will feel more positive about yourself.
Stage 3:
There is a decreased desire to have sex. Your libido will lower, and you won’t have morning wood.
Stage 4:
Your morning wood will start to appear again (oh, joy!). Your interest in sex will come back.
Stage 5:
There are clear signs that you have recovered. Your erection is back and stronger than ever. Your interest in sex has increased, and you feel more positive and energetic.
Now it is important to know that for some guys it may take a bit longer for their systems to reboot and this is really dependent upon how much porn and how much masturbation was involved along with their psychological and physical well-being.
Now, this cure may not always work for everybody, and it is crucial that if you find yourself with porn-induced erectile dysfunction that you seek professional medical help. Might help to go out and find that special someone to replace your “sessions” Tinder is always a great place to start
