But, if it happens frequently, one must consider it as a symptom of serious disease. Men’s sexual health may face threat for this. Taking doctor’s advice is the must in this case.

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction:
Men’s sexual arousal is a complex process. Brain, hormones, muscles, nerves, emotion, blood vessels, feelings etc. work together in this process.

Erectile power of penis decreases with age. Then it takes more time to be strong and it does not last long. However, age is not the only cause of ED. Other health problems and side effects of certain drugs are also responsible for this. Risk factors of the disease are as follows:

The risk of the disease increases if the nerves that control the erectile power of penis are damaged.

Which Exercise if Better: Sexual Intercourse or Walking?



Are you married and overweight? Are you trying to lose your weight? If you are married and walk regularly for weight loss, there is a new information for you. Health scientists have discovered that sexual intercourse is better exercise than walking for weight loss. Studies showed that sexual intercourse costs 4.2 calories per minute from men’s body. For women it is 3.1 calories. According to a study, published in a renowned journal, sex is better exercise than walking. 

However, there was a debate among scientists for a long time whether sexual intercourse is one kind of exercise or not. There is a general idea among people that sex for once costs 100 to 300 calories. But this information was totally guess based. Recently, some brave people participated in a study and researchers William Masters and Virginia Johnson recorded data of activation in their body.

During sexual intercourse their heart beat increased and it went up to 180 per minute. In comparison with normal exercise, it is found that the heartbeat of a 50 year old man is 45 to 119 per minute during a medium type of heavy exercise. This implies that sex is better than a moderate exercise. That means, your one hour sex works as 36 minutes moderate weight loss exercise.

Earlier in 1984, another study was conducted on 10 brave couples. The information of their physical condition was recorded using heartbeat, blood pressure, oxygen gas analyzer and electrocardiography. It was also found then that their heartbeat increased much.

But the process had a problem. The study used many tools connected with sensors, tubes etc. In the presence of such tools normal sex was hampered. So, the results of the study were not considered accurate. However, the recent study has solved the problem.

This time researchers got all information of calorie consumption just wearing an armband called Sensewear. At first the participants were told to do moderate exercise to get a primary idea. Then they were went home with the armband attached to their body. Data came to the researchers when the couples were engaging sexual intercourse at home.

Definitely, people like sex more than hard exercises such as: exercise at the gym, swimming or shedding sweat by running. And, since it is more effective than doing household chores, scientists hope that, after getting this information, people will be more interested and their calorie shedding will increase.

Men Have More Heart Disease and Diabetes Risk



Men have some more potential risks of suffering from some diseases than women. And among the diseases, dangerous heart disease and diabetes are common. NDTV reported this. A study has confirmed this recently. Researchers have informed, along with diabetes and heart disease, men have more death risk in taking excessive medicine and alcohol. And for this reason, men have higher death rate than women. 

The lead author of the study Mikel Eisenberg, a researcher from Stanford University School of Medicine said, ‘Adult men do not go to doctor unless they face serious health problem. Rather they buy and take medicine according to their own choice.’

Eisenberg also said, ‘Most of the time, these kinds of people are to visit doctors during child birth process. And this is a chance of engaging them to healthcare system.’

The researchers conducted studies from 2001 to 2009 on 115,000 men who had problems in giving birth to children. In the study, their health was compared with common men. From the study it was known, the men under study had heart disease and diabetes risks along with negligence in treatment, obesity, smoking and health problems. Eisenberg said that these kinds of men were over 30 years of age. The Fertility and Sterility Journal published the study results.

Diabetes and heart disease that cause long time sufferings and death risks in adult men and women are common in the world. The number of diabetes patients are increasing alarmingly all around the world. The scenery is the same for heart disease. Diabetes does harm to almost all systems (organs) of the body. In chronic diabetes, our eyes, kidneys, heart, nervous system, skin, joints, reproductive system and almost all other organs will lose their effectiveness. Among these, heart disease is dangerous and widespread. Diabetes patients become victim to heart disease more and severely.

Those who have type-2 diabetes have potential risk of suffering high blood pressure. Along with that, unnatural condition of blood lipid and physical obesity increase 2 to 4 times. Above all, the possibility of heart disease increases several folds. All the diseases are bound in one cycle. This is called metabolic syndrome.

Prostate Cancer Diagnosis in Urine


To diagnose prostate cancer, scientists have invented a new device. Before learning about that, let us know something about prostate gland and prostate cancer –

Prostate Gland:
  • A walnut-sized gland.
  • Present in men, located between the bladder and the penis just in front of the rectum.
  • The function of prostate gland is to secret alkaline fluid. The fluid contains semen and seminal vesicle fluid.
  • During ejaculation, the fluid comes out.
Prostate Cancer:
  • Prostate cancer develops in the prostate gland of men's reproductive system.
  • It is mostly slow growing in nature and obesity, family history and age are the main risk factors.
  • Almost 99 percent of prostate cancer occurs after 50 years of age.
  • In men, it is the fifth leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide and it is occurring in the developed countries more commonly.
  • Biopsy is the only testing method that can confirm the diagnosis of prostate cancer currently.
  • At early stage prostate cancer shows no clear symptoms.
  • In 2012, more than 177,800 American men were diagnosed with prostate cancer. Among them more than 27,000 died.
  • It is estimated that more than 180,000 American men may be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year (2016). Among them over 26,000 men may face death.
  • In the US, prostate cancer is the second most leading cause of death in men.
So, we have known that initially prostate cancer has no symptoms to diagnose. To solve this problem scientists are creating a special tool which can smell prostate cancer in urine. This diagnostic test may end the painful diagnostic procedures Biopsy which men undergo at present.

About Biopsy:
Biopsy is a medical test.
It is performed by a surgeon. An interventional radiologist or cardiologist can also perform this test.
Sample cells or tissues are extracted from the affected region. A pathologist examines it under microscope. It may be chemically analyzed too.
Biopsies are done mostly to detect cancer.
Biopsies are of many kinds. The most common biopsies are: Needle biopsy, Ultrasound-guided biopsy, CT-guided biopsy, Bone biopsy, Bone marrow biopsy, Skin biopsy, Kidney biopsy, Liver biopsy, Surgical biopsy, Prostate biopsy etc.

New Study on Prostate cancer test by smelling Urine:
Researchers studied 155 men and found the following results: 58 with prostate cancer, 24 bladder cancer and 73 hematuria or poor stream without cancer. The University of Liverpool and the University of the West of England jointly conducted the research, NDTV reported it on Feb 12, 2016. The Journal of Breath Research published the findings. Other leading media also highlighted the news with care.

Odoreader, a gas chromatography sensor system was used by the researchers. This Odoreader successfully identify the compounds in the urine. Actually, it is an 'electronic nose' which is able to smell prostate cancer in urine. The Odoreader was first introduced a couple of years ago for detecting bladder cancer. Researchers says that identifying prostate cancer at early stage is essential because it is more treatable at the earlier stage. Although detailed biopsies are done to detect prostate cancer, risk of failure remained to a great extent.  

According to the researchers, if their test be successful, it will be revolutionary in prostate cancer diagnosis. It will be a milestone which will save many lives. After the primary testing, the researchers are seeking fund for details clinical testing and developing the device commercially. So, further studies will continue.
