How Erections Work
To best understand how an erection works, think of a balloon. When you blow air into a balloon, it inflates. This is similar to how blood flows from the heart to the penis, causing it to enlarge.
The blood inflow fills the corpus cavernosum, the smooth muscle of the penis. This makes it press against the Buck's fascia. As a result, the veins sandwiched between the muscle and the fascia compress. This ensures that the blood remains within the penis, allowing for a firm erection.
What is Venous Leakage
However, with venous leakage, the veins don't compress as they should. Consequently, blood flows back out, resulting in the loss of an erection.
Surprisingly, venous leakage accounts for about 70% of ED cases.
It's often characterized by the ability to achieve an erection but then lose it shortly after, especially during penetration.
Treatment Options for Venous Leakage
Thankfully, venous leakage is treatable.
Simple lifestyle modifications, Focus Shockwave therapy, and platelet-rich plasma are among the potential solutions. It's crucial to understand that standard ED medications might not always address venous leak effectively. Also, a possible sign of venous leak is the absence of morning or nighttime erections.
Risk Factors of Venous Leakage
Several risk factors can trigger venous leak. This includes diabetes, vascular disease, inflammation, neurological disorders, radiation therapy, and Peyronie's disease. Also, for successful treatment, one might consider penis pumps, Kegel exercises, a Mediterranean diet, regular exercise, and ensuring adequate sleep.
It's equally vital to consult a sexual medicine specialist. You need to get some bloodwork to assess liver, kidney, blood sugar, cholesterol, and hormone levels.
ED as a Warning Sign
Ignoring ED could be risky. ED may signal potential vascular diseases, which, if untreated, might lead to life-threatening conditions like heart attacks or strokes. Also, regular check-ups and blood work can be game-changers in managing and possibly resolving ED.
