*Impotency - Homeopathic Medicines* It is also called Erectyle Dysfunction. Defination - It is abnormal physical or psychological state of a male characterized by inability to engage in sexual intercourse because of failure to have or maintain an erection. *Causes* These include both emotional and physical disorders. An estimated 50 percent of men ages 40 to 70 experience some ED at one time or another. The risk of impotence increases with age. *1. Endocrine Diseases* Diabetes is an example of an endocrine disease that can cause a person to experience impotence. Diabetes affects the body’s ability to utilize the hormone insulin. One of the side effects associated with chronic diabetes is nerve damage. This affects penis sensations. Other complications associated with diabetes are impaired blood flow and hormone levels. *2. Neurological and Nerve Disorders* Several neurologic conditions can increase the risk for impotence. Nerve conditions affect the brain’s ability to communicate with the reproductive system. This can prevent a person from achieving an erection. Neurological disorders associated with impotence include: * Alzheimer’s disease * Parkinson’s disease * brain or spinal tumors * multiple sclerosis * stroke * temporal lobe epilepsy *3. Taking Medications* Taking certain medications can affect blood flow, which can lead to ED Examples of medications known to cause impotence include: * alpha-adrenergic blockers, including tamsulosin (Flomax) * beta-blockers, such as carvedilol (Coreg) and metoprolol (Lopressor) * cancer chemotherapy medications, such as cimetidine (Tagamet) * central nervous system depressants, such as alprazolam (Xanax), diazepam (Valium), and codeine (found in various brand name drugs) * central nervous system stimulants, such as cocaine or amphetamines * diuretics, such as furosemide (Lasix) and spironolactone (Aldactone) * selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or SSRIs (Prozac, Paxil) * synthetic hormones, such as leuprolide (Eligard) *4. Cardiac-Related Conditions* Conditions that affect the heart and its ability to pump blood well can cause impotence. Without enough blood flow to the penis, a person can’t achieve an erection. Atherosclerosis, a condition that causes the blood vessels to become clogged, can cause impotence. High cholesterol and high blood pressure (hypertension) are also associated with increased risks for impotence. *5. Lifestyle Factors and Emotional Disorders* To achieve an erection, a person must first go through what’s known as an excitement phase. This phase can be an emotional response. If a person has an emotional disorder, this affects their ability to become sexually excited. Depression and anxiety are associated with increased risk for impotence. Performance anxiety can be another cause of impotence. If a person wasn’t able to achieve an erection in the past, he may fear he won’t be able to achieve an erection in the future. Abuse of drugs like cocaine and amphetamines can also cause impotence. Alcohol abuse and alcoholism can affect a person’s ability to achieve or maintain an erection as well.

Friends today I am discussing about a problem known as Female Sexual Dysfunction. Many females have these problems but shy to share with Doctor. Female sexual dysfunction Persistent, recurrent problems with sexual response, desire, orgasm or pain — that distress you or strain your relationship with your partner — are known medically as sexual dysfunction. Many women experience problems with sexual function at some point, and some have difficulties throughout their lives. Female sexual dysfunction can occur at any stage of life. It can occur only in certain sexual situations or in all sexual situations. Mayo Clinic does not endorse companies or products. Advertising revenue supports our not-for-profit mission. Advertising & Sponsorship PolicyOpportunitiesAd Choices Advertisement Sexual response involves a complex interplay of physiology, emotions, experiences, beliefs, lifestyle and relationships. Disruption of any component can affect sexual desire, arousal or satisfaction, and treatment often involves more than one approach. Symptoms Symptoms vary depending on what type of sexual dysfunction you're experiencing: Low sexual desire. This most common of female sexual dysfunctions involves a lack of sexual interest and willingness to be sexual. Sexual arousal disorder. Your desire for sex might be intact, but you have difficulty with arousal or are unable to become aroused or maintain arousal during sexual activity. Orgasmic disorder. You have persistent or recurrent difficulty in achieving orgasm after sufficient sexual arousal and ongoing stimulation. Sexual pain disorder. You have pain associated with sexual stimulation or vaginal contact. When to see a doctor If sexual problems affect your relationship or worry you, make an appointment with your doctor for evaluation. Request an Appointment at Mayo Clinic Causes Sexual problems often develop when your hormones are in flux, such as after having a baby or during menopause. Major illness, such as cancer, diabetes, or heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease, can also contribute to sexual dysfunction. Factors — often interrelated — that contribute to sexual dissatisfaction or dysfunction include: Physical. Any number of medical conditions, including cancer, kidney failure, multiple sclerosis, heart disease and bladder problems, can lead to sexual dysfunction. Certain medications, including some antidepressants, blood pressure medications, antihistamines and chemotherapy drugs, can decrease your sexual desire and your body's ability to experience orgasm. Hormonal. Lower estrogen levels after menopause may lead to changes in your genital tissues and sexual responsiveness. A decrease in estrogen leads to decreased blood flow to the pelvic region, which can result in less genital sensation, as well as needing more time to build arousal and reach orgasm. The vaginal lining also becomes thinner and less elastic, particularly if you're not sexually active. These factors can lead to painful intercourse (dyspareunia). Sexual desire also decreases when hormonal levels decrease. Your body's hormone levels also shift after giving birth and during breast-feeding, which can lead to vaginal dryness and can affect your desire to have sex. Psychological and social. Untreated anxiety or depression can cause or contribute to sexual dysfunction, as can long-term stress and a history of sexual abuse. The worries of pregnancy and demands of being a new mother may have similar effects. Long-standing conflicts with your partner — about sex or other aspects of your relationship — can diminish your sexual responsiveness as well. Cultural and religious issues and problems with body image also can contribute. Risk factors Some factors may increase your risk of sexual dysfunction: Depression or anxiety Heart and blood vessel disease Neurological conditions, such as spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis Gynecological conditions, such as vulvovaginal atrophy, infections or lichen sclerosus Certain medications, such as antidepressants or high blood pressure medications Emotional or psychological stress, especially with regard to your relationship with your partner A history of sexual abuse विवाह के बाद महिलाओं को भावनात्मक और शारीरिक परिवर्तनों से सबसे ज्यादा गुजरना पड़ता है। ऐसे में वे अपनी सेहत को उपेक्षित करती हैं। सेक्स समस्याओं को जानबूझ कर टालती रहती हैं। जब समस्या बढ़ जाती हैं तब परेशानी आती है। प्रस्तुत है महिलाओं की सेक्स समस्याओं का घरेलू इलाज- * मह‍िलाओं को रक्त की कमी, प्रदर रोग, अत्यधिक मासिक स्राव में पेठे का साग घी में भूनकर सुबह-शाम खाना चाहिए या फिर पेठे के रस में शकर मिलाकर आधा-आधा कप पीना चाहिए। यह महिलाओं के यौन रोगों में भी लाभकारी है। * गर्भाशय की कमजोरी, बार-बार गर्भस्राव होना, प्रदर रोग में सिंघाड़े के आटे का हलवा बनाकर सेवन करना अथवा सिंघाड़े के आटे की रोटी बनाकर खाना लाभकारी होता है। * यदि मह‍िलाएं सुबह एक-दो मुट्ठी काले तिल का सेवन करें, तो उनकी माहवारी संबंधी गड़बड़ी दूर हो जाती है और त्वचा भी सुंदर और स्वस्थ बनती है । * 50 ग्राम गुलकंद और 20 ग्राम सौंफ चबाकर खाएं और ऊपर से एक गिलास दूध नियमित रूप से पीएं। इससे बांझपन की शिकायत दूर होती है। Lyco, Arnica, Gelsemium, Nux vomica, Nat.Mur are few Homoeopathic medicines which can be given according to the symptoms.
