Who among adults in adolescence did not watch movies marked XXX? Perhaps only a few can honestly admit that they have never seen. And this is perfectly normal. In his youth, when there is interest in the intimate sphere of life, watching a very adult movie can carry even a kind of educational component.
But in the older age pornographic movies can be fraught with danger. That is the conclusion drawn by researchers at Harvard Medical School, who understand the problem.
Professor at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Abraham Morgenthaler says that appealed to them once a man 27 years old named Tony. He survived the rupture of relations with the girl and spent a few nights watching porn. According to him, "mainly out of boredom." In the end, the man realized that more completely excited. He was frightened and went to the doctor. He performed a test for testosterone and other tests. The survey results showed that all is well with health. Specialist Tony prescribed pills for erectile dysfunction, but they did not help. It is obvious that the problem was much deeper than the physical level.
He began to look for a solution to your problem on the internet and got on Reboot Nation website, where men shared their stories of how they lost their sexual power and that there are more women do not excite. All united by the fact that they regularly watched porn.
"Because of these stories, I realized that pornography could affect my brain. It was something like a car tire, which is used all the time and used until it has worn off, and not out of order. On the site I was reading the history of a teenager who is no longer excited by the sight of naked girls, "- says Tony.
The diagnosis, which was made by Tony, the same as thousands of others set the young men under 30 years old - Porn-induced erectile dysfunction (PIED).
Dr. Abraham Morgenthaler believes that watching porn releases happiness hormones dopamine, which causes a feeling of pleasure. When this occurs frequently, the man "sits" on the sensations and wants constant repetition. This can be compared to drug addiction when a person is looking for fun and in need of constant increase in the dose. Then the brain secretes more of the hormone and eventually exhausted. In this regard, according to scientists, it is already to 22 years in some boys so depleted sexual feelings, they begin to look more and more aggressive porn video.
It tells the resource Reboot Nation founder Gabe Dim familiar with PIED firsthand, he spent 9 months did not watch porn and was not engaged in self-satisfaction, and only then start the erection return. His case has once again confirmed that the new type of erectile dysfunction has little to do with the physiology - it is a long-term effect, which produces porn on the brain.
