Impotence
Often men find impotence to be puzzling and difficult to talk about. Women may think they are no longer attractive, or that the partner is having an affair. What is Impotence? What do Users of Genesis devices say? What are the alternative solutions for impotence ? Who qualifies for a prescription for a Genesis erection assistance device? Impotence is defined as the inability to achieve and maintain an erection long enough for intercourse satisfactory for both partners. Premature loss of erection is therefore defined as a form of impotence.
Impotence may be temporary or permanent. It is usually caused by physical problems, but can also have a psychological origin. Sometimes both physical and psychological factors are present. Physical causes include diabetes, arteriosclerosis and other blood vessel problems, surgery in the pelvic area such as prostate, bladder, rectal etc., hormonal imbalances, neuropathy, spinal cord injuries, kidney failure, multiple sclerosis, alcohol and drug abuse and medications, especially for high blood pressure. Psychological factors can include depression, anxiety, marital problems, guilt, stress and fear of failure to perform. Genesis Medical erection assistance devices

Male impotence is often considered a male problem. However, as satisfactory intercourse is an important part of a relationship the problem is a shared one.
This is a very common problem and affects many millions of men throughout the world. Solutions are available for everyone and nobody should feel embarrassed about talking freely to their partner and doctor.
Genesis Medical supplies two vacuum erection assistance devices. One, the Active II, is battery driven, and the other, The Impulse, has a hand pump. A silicone rubber ring is loaded onto a cylinder which is placed over the penis. The vacuum pump then draws out the air, causing the tissue to expand and the penis to become erect. The ring is slipped onto the base of the penis to keep the blood from leaving it and the rest of the device is removed. The erection lasts until the ring is removed. It is recommended that the ring be removed within 30 minutes.
