For men who do not respond to pharmacotherapy, a special vacuum constriction device can be used to increase potency. It is a manually operated device that creates negative pressure around the penis. This leads to passive filling of the lacunar space and erection. Supporting a tense penis is made easier with a rubber cuff placed around the base. Use can be done within 30 minutes, no more, to avoid skin necrosis. The device should be used with extreme caution by men taking anticoagulants.
In some cases, when conservative treatment methods do not help, surgical procedures, including penile prosthesis, are indicated. Among several types of implants, the most preferred is the three-component inflatable prosthesis, which includes two implant tubes connected to a pump placed in the scrotum and a reservoir in the preperitoneal space.
Special instructions for men who use methods to increase potency.
Proper nutrition
To restore potency after 60 years, a set of steps is required. Proper nutrition plays one of the main roles. When making a healthy menu, you need to take into account that as a man ages, he needs less animal protein and carbohydrates. Therefore, it is necessary to remove eggs, fatty meat and sour cream from the diet. The following products help restore potency:
- nuts (Brazil, pistachios, walnuts) mixed with honey and dried fruits;
- nuts and grains - will be very beneficial if you have diabetes;
- green vegetables belonging to the cruciferous family: various types of cabbage, asparagus, onions, peppers);
- fresh fruits and berries - eat 0. 2 kg per day;
- fatty sea fish, containing a lot of Omega-3 acids;
- fermented milk products, cheese.
The following products help restore potency.
Because the potential is weak
No man can accept their sexual impotence problem. There are a large number of factors that worsen the condition and increase the risk of erectile dysfunction and impotence in old age:
- diabetes;
- atherosclerosis;
- smoking;
- poor nutrition;
- alcohol abuse;
- pressure;
- endocrine diseases;
- sedentary work that leads to disruption of blood flow to the pelvic organs;
- psychological factors;
- problems with the heart, blood vessels;
- kidney disease, genitourinary system;
- overweight;
- nervous disease.
after ejaculation, the erection decreases rapidly; .
Prevention
Age-related changes in the "work" of the penis cannot be prevented or stopped - only controlled so that they have a minimal impact on personal life. For men who want to preserve the youth of their reproductive system until old age, it is enough to worry about his health since adolescence:
- avoid intimate relationships full of infection;
- do not practice a "sex marathon" with several partners or alone, but all night long without a break;
- do not overcool the genitals:
- do not protect them beyond any measure (this leads to infertility);
- protect the scrotal area from injury, including lifting excessive weights.
The tips described in the article will help restore a normal sexual life: 2-4 sexual intercourses a month, this is more than enough at this age.
The role of routine and sexual activity
Men's strength can decrease due to poor nutrition. For older people, it is very important to follow a special diet. The menu should include:
- yolk;
- all kinds of nuts;
- carrot;
- seafood;
- greenery;
- cabbage;
- celery.
Aphrodisiac foods include peanuts, almonds, and pistachios, which are not only very tasty, but also beneficial for the whole body. This product fills the body with beneficial vitamins and microelements.
You should try your best to fight excess weight. It does not help increase potency in any way. The calorie content of the diet can even be slightly reduced compared to the age norm: this will not cause harm.
In old age, a regular sex life is very important. Moreover, it does not have to stop. Nature has designed the male body in such a way that high sexual activity should be maintained at any age. Erectile dysfunction occurs from congestion in the prostate gland (and they, in turn, arise as a result of prolonged sexual abstinence).
It is very important that intimate life takes place without frequent changes of partners. Sometimes a small break in intimate life even increases desire, erection and makes the sensation during sex more acute.
Physical exercise significantly improves blood circulation in the pelvic area. This can increase potency, because adequate blood circulation also stimulates the production of male sex hormones. On the other hand, if a man does not load his muscles, he turns out to be very weak in bed.
So, increasing potency with the help of drugs in older men is possible only on the recommendation of a doctor.
Fixed sex life
No matter how paradoxical it sounds, frequent sexual intercourse also helps to increase potency.
At a young age, men usually do not have problems with erections. This is due to the ability to respond to any sexual stimulation that does not require additional stimulation.
In theory, men of all ages should maintain normal sexual activity, however, due to accumulated diseases and problems with blood vessels, erectile dysfunction occurs.
The regularity of sexual activity is as important as its moderation. This means that sex should be regular, preferably without frequent changes of sexual partners and without long periods of abstinence.
The most interesting thing is that a short break in sexual activity, on the other hand, stimulates desire, increases erection and increases libido.
In this case, it is best to combine a healthy lifestyle with taking medication.
Traditional medicinal recipes
When restoring sexual function in sixty-year-old men, doctors pay special attention to traditional medicine - herbs instead of synthetically based drugs. Of course, their action occurs more slowly, but the effect is more continuous and lasting. In addition, each drug can be prepared at home or purchased at a pharmacy in a ready-made form. The most popular drugs to increase libido and eliminate erectile dysfunction are the following:
- alcoholic tincture of ginseng root;
- linseed;
- regular dubrovnik stew;
- bee bread - unprocessed plant pollen;
- European asparagus and dodder seeds;

Causes of age-related decline in potency
Permanent problems or situations with the potential to arise at any age due to a large number of different factors. These include disorders in the functioning of the body's neurovascular and hormonal systems, past illnesses, surgical operations in the pelvic area, as well as psychological disorders and stressful conditions. The decrease in potency with age is provoked mainly by inhibition of gonadal function and a corresponding decrease in testosterone production.
Erections at the age of 60 become irregular due to age-related hormonal changes.
The gonads gradually begin to stop their work, there is a decrease in the size of the testicles, and a decrease in libido. During sexual intercourse, erectile function is impaired, and difficulties arise with stimulation or ejaculation. To continue and complete a satisfactory sexual relationship, additional stimulation is required; the man becomes physically tired more quickly.
The following factors can have a negative effect on potential after 60 years:
- decreased testosterone levels caused by natural causes, loss of gonadal function. The time and rate of this hormone reduction depends on a person's genetics and lifestyle. Some people have problems with potency after 40 years, and for some, sexual health remains until old age;
- the presence of chronic diseases of the cardiovascular system, fragility of vein walls, tendency to varicose veins and circulatory disorders. This disease complex directly affects the filling of the corpora cavernosa of the penis during erection and ensures its stability;
- Hormonal diseases that lead to the deterioration of the nervous system and testosterone imbalance. For example, diabetes mellitus has the same set of symptoms and negatively affects the patient's erectile function;
- diseases that have a damaging effect on the nervous tissue of the brain and spinal cord, spinal cord injury;
- inflammatory diseases of the male genitourinary system, including infectious diseases, urethritis, age-related problems with the prostate;
- existing neoplasms in the organs of the genitourinary system, malignant tumors, prostate hyperplasia, adenomas that compress blood vessels and disrupt normal blood circulation;
- systematic abuse of alcohol, tobacco or narcotic substances, which has a negative effect on the whole body as a whole, worsens the functioning of the nervous system, reduces sensitivity, and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease;
- lack of necessary physical activity, sedentary work, forming blood stagnation in the pelvic area and worsening the condition of blood vessels;
- continuous use of drugs that directly or indirectly inhibit erectile function, for example, tranquilizers or antidepressants;
- chronic stress, fatigue, non-compliance with sleep, rest and nutrition, constant psychological tension due to personal qualities or social situations. Phobia and anxiety disorders, depression and other similar illnesses.
All these factors can worsen the onset of gonadal decline and lead to erectile dysfunction at an earlier age. A complete loss of sex life can occur at the age of 40 if a man does not take care of his health, does not exercise, eats poorly and abuses harmful substances. And if you follow certain rules and diets, long-term potency preservation is possible without using additional stimulants.
Society believes that people over the age of 60 have completely lost interest in sex life, but this is not always true. Libido may be preserved, the need for sexual intercourse remains, a clear and harmonious interaction in the nervous system is only disturbed. The erectile mechanism begins to malfunction due to a lack of testosterone and vascular deterioration. This leads to failure during sex, a circle of fear and psychological complexes are triggered, often forcing a man to stop sexual activity.

What is potential?
In the male body, the main hormone is testosterone: it is responsible for the appearance of male characteristics, stamina and sperm production. A man's mood depends on the level of testosterone, but it is better known as the hormone that creates sexual desire and is indirectly responsible for a normal erection or potency. This term in a general sense reflects the ability of the male body to have frequent sexual intercourse (but not the frequency and temperament of the man).
From a medical point of view, the potency is expressed in:
- blood flow to the cavernous body of the penis;
- its increase;
- the ability to maintain a long-term sexual relationship.
An old man may lose natural bodily functions because:
- obesity;
- diabetes mellitus;
- have a stroke;
- heart and vascular pathology;
- abuse of alcohol, nicotine;
- venereal disease;
- inflammatory and pathological processes affecting the penis;
- diseases of the central nervous system.
the ability to maintain a long-term sexual relationship.
Internal factor
The presence of chronic vascular disease affects potency
Medical disorders that develop in older men, leading to impotence, are often caused by internal factors. Among them:
- Pathology of a cardiac nature - sexual function directly depends on the functioning of the cardiovascular system, which supplies blood to the whole body.
- Hypertension - changes in blood pressure affect both the general condition and libido of a man.
- Diabetes mellitus - erectile dysfunction in older men with this disease occurs due to the damaging effects of the disease on blood vessels and autonomic nerve endings, which are responsible for the normal passage of signals from the brain during the function of the genital organs.
- Prostatitis, a very common male disease today, creates difficulties for stronger sex not only with urination, as in the famous commercial, but also with erectile function.
- Hormonal imbalance is a lack of sex hormones, the level of which decreases significantly in old age, reducing sexual desire and reducing the possibility of sexual intercourse.
- Metabolic disorders - the imbalance of metabolic processes affects potency.
- Uncontrolled use of drugs - the use of any drug by the elderly, especially hormonal drugs, must be agreed with the attending physician.
Sometimes, to solve the problem, it is enough to reduce anxiety and relax more.
Psychological aspects
In our country, unfortunately, there is no old culture. It is generally accepted that older people are no longer people at all. All that remained for them was to disappear quietly, sitting on the bench at the entrance. It is true that many after a certain age, especially when they stop working, devote their lives to children or grandchildren, who do not have time to devote time to relatives who have retired or sit in front of the TV. Against the background of a life that is weak in emotions, the loss of potential is experienced mainly acutely.
It is important to remember that age is not a sentence, but a gift. At the age of 50-60, a man comes with a sufficient amount of knowledge and skills. He became more tolerant, wiser, but at the same time he was still intellectually and physically preserved. Now is the time to do the things you never had time for:
- Master new knowledge: start learning languages, master computers;
- Sports activities such as swimming, long walks, running and yoga can be chosen to suit any health condition;
- Discover new aspects of sex. There are many techniques and practices that will give you new sensations.
- Travel. Not everyone can afford a trip around Europe, but you can visit friends in neighboring cities more often or go to a nearby forest to pick mushrooms.
This will allow you to fill your life with emotions and impressions, feel like an active and full member of society, and think less about age and the changes it brings. Erectile dysfunction often occurs under the influence of experience, stress, even against the background of normal physical conditions of the body.
Discover new aspects of sex.
Normal or pathological - is everything fine?
The first thing to do to determine whether the reproductive system is normal is to conduct a potency test, that is, a self-diagnosis.
It's easy to do:
- The number of sexual acts in people over the age of 60 is, on average, 1-2 per week. If a representative of the stronger human half can maintain this level of sexual activity, everything is in order.
- Morning erection. A sustained morning erection is an indicator of sexual health. But its absence is neither a sentence nor an indicator.
- Erection at night. An erection at night also indicates normal reproductive function.
If only the morning erection disappears, there is no reason to panic, but when the night potency also disappears, there is reason to be careful. To determine the situation at night, you need to make a paper ring according to the size of the penis and place it at the base of the penis at night. If in the morning the "product" remains whole and intact, we can talk about pathology. In this case, you can not do without the help of a doctor.
You should contact an andrologist. He will prescribe several diagnostic measures, including:
- Spermogram. Allows you to determine sperm motility and the fertilizing properties of seminal fluid.
- Pelvic organ ultrasound. Sometimes the decrease in potency is due to pathological reasons.
- Digital rectal examination of the prostate. To rule out prostatitis.
- Analysis of prostate juice. It also allows you to identify prostatitis and other diseases of the glandular organs.
- PSA blood test.
- General blood analysis. Needed to determine sugar concentration. Diabetes is the enemy of men's health.
After completing this study, one will know for sure whether we are talking about the norm or pathology. The main thing is not to delay the visit of a specialist. The male body itself is quite fragile, and restoring sexual function in adulthood is more difficult.

Reasons for decreased potency after 60 years
When a person reaches the age of 60, old age affects his body's functions. Metabolic processes slow down, and all kinds of dysfunctions appear in internal organs. The genitourinary system is one of the most sensitive to these age-related disorders, which leads to a significant decline in potency.
The most common cause of this disease is hormone levels that change with age. At the age of 60, the amount of testosterone in the blood drops significantly, which leads to erectile dysfunction. Any other pathological changes in the function of the endocrine system, especially if they are aggravated by diabetes of both types, not only lead to impaired vision, breathing or circulatory system function, but also to impotence.
Cardiovascular disease traditionally tops the list of the most dangerous diseases affecting the elderly. These diseases can weaken erections, because with poor blood circulation, insufficient blood flows to the genital organs, and the function of the pelvic organs is weakened.
Weak potential at the age of 60 can also be caused by problems with the musculoskeletal system. First, the function of the genital organs can be affected by various injuries and bruises, which can be very painful in old age. Secondly, at this time chronic problems with the spine worsen, which can affect the function of the spinal cord and the nervous system as a whole.
The nervous system after the age of 60 needs rehabilitation. A lot of stress, poor nutrition, and personal problems only weaken him. Lack of cerebral circulation, problems with the spinal cord, decreased muscle tone - all this negatively affects potency.
However, as shown by medical practice and many scientific studies, these problems often originate from the genitourinary system itself. Often, people over the age of 60 are prone to inflammation of the prostate gland, they suffer from adenoma, urethritis, and in addition, at this age, the risk of genital cancer is very high.
The above factors increase if you practice an unhealthy lifestyle. Poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, and bad habits have a very bad effect on the sexual health of the elderly. At this age, the immune system becomes weak, so often infectious and inflammatory diseases can have complications that affect the function of the genital organs, especially when they are related to venereal diseases.
However, they also have contraindications, and their use in the presence of serious chronic diseases is undesirable.
What happens to potency at age 60?
Age-related changes in the male body do not only affect the physical condition. Many begin to experience other difficulties that they did not notice in their younger years - most people realize that at the age of 60, male potency begins to decline. Now at the pharmacy counter and in the warehouse of traditional medicine there are many ways that allow you to fight this disease constructively.
Therefore, it is very important for every man to start taking care of his health, including androgenic health, from a young age. Many begin to experience other difficulties that they did not notice in their younger years; most people realize that at the age of 60, male potency begins to decline.
