Many men come to our clinic with one goal in mind – to get their sex drive back to what it used to be, or to get their erections working the way that they used to. Having a healthy sex life, which of course also means having a healthy sex drive and erection, is a very important part of a man’s life. Some of our patients tell us when they come in that their regular doctors don’t really want to deal with the issue of sexual health, which can be frustrating.
The thing about the quality of your sex life is that it doesn’t exist in isolation from your overall health picture. If you’re not feeling in the mood much anymore, or things aren’t working quite as well as they used to, it’s probable that in general you’re not feeling as healthy as you used to either.
For men, maintaining a healthy level of your testosterone is key. Testosterone is a hormone linked to your cardiovascular health, your metabolism, your mood, and of course your reproductive system. If your testosterone is too low for your age, health problems can begin to occur. In addition to living a healthy lifestyle, there are medications and supplements that can aid in bringing testosterone levels up. This in turn can have a positive effect on overall health, which in turn can help maintain healthy testosterone naturally. It’s a feed-forward loop.
So in addition to the obvious benefits of improving your sex life, men who increase their testosterone levels often find that they’re feeling more energy, getting thinner, feeling younger, and generally in a better mood. Sometimes they’re even able to reduce or get off certain medications, or see certain health conditions resolve.
Treatments for long term health and improved sexual health are often one and the same. A healthy body means a healthier sex life. Our goal is to help men not only by providing medication to have a better quality of life under the sheets, but to offer advice and treatments toward a better quality of life overall. By balancing hormone levels and making a few healthy lifestyle changes, you’ll find yourself enjoying a better sex life and getting healthier and more energized as well.
So remember, if your sex life improves, your overall health will too! At Red Fern Health, we can help you get started.
