There are many detrimental factors which can affect your sexual health. The reason for this stems from the fact that there are many factors that negatively influence the balance of your body. However, some special factors like alcohol and smoking have been shown to be quite detrimental to your sexual health.

Especially alcohol has been proven to be quite detrimental to males. According to various medical researches, it has been demonstrated that consumption of more than one serving of alcohol can directly cause a male to have an erection problem. Of course, there is an urban legend that says consumption of alcohol can cause you to increase your sexual appétit and sexual desire. However, although consumption of alcohol may decrease various social inhibitions, there isn’t any scientific evidence that shows consumption of alcohol can increase your sexual libido. In fact, just the opposite, the consumption of alcohol will indirectly effect your blood pressure, which may also cause your organ to have an erection dysfunction.
