1 In 10 Men Suffer From Erectile Dysfunction Due To Work Related Stress

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/112046.php
New research has shown that 1 in 10 men experience erectile dysfunction (ED) and as many as 1 in 5 men suffer a loss of libido, as a result of work-related stress.

These latest figures suggest that 90% of men have shown at least one clinical feature of stress due to work but only 54% of men know that stress from work may be the cause of their ED. Stress, either at work or home, is a known cause of ED and prolonged stress is associated with low testosterone levels.

Unfortunately 44% of men would not go to their GP if they experience erection problems, and those who do go to their GP about their ED wait on average 17 months before going for a consultation

Erectile Dysfunction From Bike Riding: New Report From Harvard Medical School Explains How To Protect Yourself

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/62639.php

Research suggests that riding a bike for long periods can cause temporary erectile difficulties, explains "What to Do about Erectile Dysfunction," a new report from Harvard Medical School. The risk appears highest among men who cycle more than three hours a week.

Sitting on a bicycle for a long time puts pressure on the perineum, the area between the genitals and anus. This pressure can harm nerves and temporarily impede blood flow, causing tingling or numbness in the penis and, eventually, erectile dysfunction. However, one study showed that while a conventional bicycle caused a dramatic (though temporary) drop in oxygen supply to the penis, a recumbent bicycle did not.

If you don't want to switch to a recumbent bike, these precautions may help you prevent cycling-related erectile problems:

-- Wear padded biking shorts.

-- Raise the handlebars so that you're sitting relatively upright. This shifts pressure from the perineum to the buttocks.

-- Use a wide, well-padded or gel-filled seat instead a narrow seat, which places more pressure on the perineum.

-- Position the seat to reduce pressure: Make sure it is not so high that your legs are fully extended at the bottom of your pedal stroke, and don't tilt the seat up.

-- Change your position and take breaks during long rides.

-- If you feel tingling or numbness in the penis, stop riding for a week or two.
