Such a delicate problem as erectile dysfunction might seem even worse if you think of it like you were a woman. Yep, they share the news, and, unfortunately, they can guess if a man has some difficulty in bed without trying to go there first. Ladies talk about correlation between male hands and their genitals, male foot and their dicks, and… Recently, scientists have discovered that male gait might be related to erectile dysfunction and impotence, too.

What factors contribute to the development of impotence

Let us remind you one more time which factors might contribute to the development of impotence or erectile dysfunction. Please mind that this condition may affect not only elderly, but also younger men.

Anyway, the main reasons include unhealthy lifestyle, smoking, drinking too much alcohol, drug addiction, vitamin deficiency, and so on. But the very first reasons, as you probably know, include stress and depression, as well as physiological reasons, first of all. That is, certain diseases, such as diabetes, might lead to difficulties with erection.

Obviously, any man when noticing the very first signs of erectile dysfunction, should first try to maintain a healthier lifestyle. Then, think of visiting a therapist, and, of course, mind the diseases he has. In most cases, fixing these issues helps a lot.

Male gait and erectile dysfunction: What about scientists?

Let’s get back to the seemingly funny part. Scientists from Japan have found a direct connection between the male gait and the reproductive system of men.

Initially, they had an idea of finding out how physical shape affects the quality and frequency of sexual activity in men. During the study, it turned out that the shorter the step, the greater the likelihood of developing dysfunction of the reproductive system. That is, the more difficulties with erection such a man may suffer. And, you know, women read the news.

A wide step in male gait refers to better blood flow in the vessels, which contributed directly to the genitals. On the other hand, a shortened step indicates a decrease in muscle tone, which means worsening of sexual function. Sad but true.
