Smoking Causes Impotence
December 31, 2007
Men – need a new reason to quit smoking? Sex. Smoking causes impotence -”Smoking, because it causes blood vessel constriction, is a very big cause of erectile dysfunction,” said Dr. Larry Lipshultz, chief of male reproductive medicine at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.
The report on smoking and impotence, which appeared on Health Day News, found that men who smoke a pack a day are 40% more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction. “Smoking delivers nicotine and other vasoconstrictors that close down the blood vessels” of the penis, explained Dr. Jack Mydlo, chairman of urology at Temple University School of Medicine and Hospital in Philadelphia.
There are many reasons to quit smoking, I have list of them on the front page of my website, a healthy sex life will soon be added.
