When it comes to sex, performance anxiety is often attributed to men. But women can suffer from it as well. Let’s explore why this happens and what can be done about it.

 

 

Worries about having an orgasm

One of the biggest concerns for women when it comes to sex is whether or not they will be able to achieve an orgasm. Thanks in part to the way sex is depicted on screen, women often think that they need to have an explosive orgasm every time or they’re doing something wrong.

“Society has put pressure on women and men and everyone to orgasm all the time,” says Dr. Jennifer Caudle, a family physician. “And we already know that women often orgasm a lot less than men.”

According to a survey of more than 5,000 people, 97 percent of men said they typically orgasm during sex, as opposed to 89 percent of women. Three-quarters of the women surveyed said they can’t orgasm through penetration alone. And as a result of focusing so much on climaxing, sex just isn’t enjoyable for some women, says Dr. Emily Morse.

“She barely remembers what positions they did or how it felt because all she can think about is that bright shiny orgasm that she once again failed to achieve,” Morse says. “A lot of women fall into this trap of believing that it is the man’s responsibility to bring home the orgasm. So when their partner is doing his various moves and nothing is happening for a woman down below, she immediately becomes anxious and starts to assign the blame to herself and her sexual response.”

Bad body image

Another impediment to good sex – or any sex – is a woman’s poor body image. In addition to being self-conscious about a little extra weight or other things they see as flaws, there is an ingrained belief in many women that their genitals are unattractive.

“Being naked feels extremely vulnerable,” says Dr. Caudle. “Society tells us how to look, what is sexy and what is not, what is good sex, what is considered attractive or not. All these rules make it harder for people to be intimate in a way that makes sense for them.”

Relationship problems

If things are not going well in the relationship, this can often have a negative effect on sex. Women especially need to be emotionally intimate with their partner in order to enjoy being physically intimate.

Physical discomfort

While psychological factors are frequently the cause of performance anxiety in women, there may be some physical problems as well. Medical conditions like endometriosis and vaginitis can cause intercourse to be painful. In some instances – such as during menopause – women are unable to produce enough lubrication to make sex enjoyable. Poor blood flow to the vagina and clitoris are commonly cited as factors that can lead to a lack of sensation or natural lubrication – and this can be caused by age-related or environmental factors, such as the build-up of plaque in blood vessels.

HOW WOMEN CAN OVERCOME PERFORMANCE ANXIETY

There are different things women can do to alleviate their worries when it comes to sex. Having an open and honest conversation with a partner is a good first step. Creating intimate moments that don’t involve intercourse – like a sensual massage or bath – can help.

And if the problem is physical, soundwave therapy could be a great option. FemiWave™ is a procedure that uses low-intensity sound waves to increase blood flow to the vaginal lining, which can help with sensation and natural lubrication.

What is ED? 

What causes ED?

How is Erectile Dysfunction Treated with Acoustic Wave Therapy?

GAINSWave Non-invasive Erectile Dysfunction Treatment

Mississippi ED Treatment

If you have erectile dysfunction, you probably want to fix it as fast as possible. While many oral medications often act fairly quickly, they don’t solve the issue permanently and can cause some dangerous side effects. Once the pill wears off, you’re back to where you started. However, it doesn’t have to be that way. With shockwave therapy, you can treat the root causes of ED and receive long-lasting relief from it.

Find out more about what shockwave therapy is and how long it takes to start working to see if it’s a treatment option that appeals to you.

What Is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive therapy for erectile dysfunction that targets the root cause of ED in many men. Initially, this medically non-invasive treatment was used for orthopedic injuries and kidney stones, but many urologists and other qualified professionals have started using it to treat ED. 

With shockwave therapy like GAINSWave®, Kelly Engelmann, a certified medical provider will use high-frequency, low-intensity sounds to stimulate new blood vessel growth, improve blood flow to the penis, and eliminate micro-plaque. By focusing on the main causes of ED, shockwave therapy from GAINSWave is highly effective and has been shown to have a 75% success rate in treating ED, making it the leader in sexual wellness today.

How Does Shock Therapy Work?

When you sign up for shockwave therapy and are approved, the treatment is fairly simple. During the procedure, a healthcare professional will move a wand-like device near various parts of the penis. As the healthcare professional uses the device, it will emit pulse waves that stimulate the growth of new blood vessels and dissolve plaque build-up to improve blood flow to the penis. These waves also trigger a healing response, where growth factors and stem cells “wake up” and rejuvenate male erectile tissue. 

Typically, this procedure takes around 15 minutes, and the patient will only feel gentle pulses during it. Unlike other ED treatments, shockwave therapy doesn’t require surgery, penile implants, or costly prescriptions. Instead, patients can expect a fast, painless process that gives them long-lasting results in the form of stronger, more sustainable erections.

How Long Does it Take for Shockwave Therapy to Work for Erectile Dysfunction?

When men first look into shockwave therapy, one of their first questions is often about how long it takes for GAINSWave to work. Though the speed it takes to see desired results varies from patient to patient, many men see positive results in their erections within three to six weeks.

In that timeframe, GAINSWave patients usually need around 6 to 12 sessions to meet their ED treatment goals. While most men usually see significantly positive results in one to three months, some men have reported having spontaneous erections 24 hours after receiving treatment.

How Long Does Shockwave Therapy Work for ED After Treatment?

Standard ED pill options typically only last for a few hours before you have to take another pill. Unlike ED pills, the positive results of shockwave therapy can last for around two years. The long-lasting nature of shockwave therapy makes it one of the best options for men suffering from ED. 

With this treatment, you’ll never have to worry about remembering to take a pill before having sex or having to wait for the pill to start working. Instead, you can be as spontaneous as you want and stay more focused on your partner. Knowing you don’t have to take a pill can also be a major confidence booster in the bedroom, and many men have found that GAINSWave has enhanced their sexual performance.

Is Shockwave Therapy Painful or Dangerous?

Due to shockwave therapy’s non-invasive approach, it’s entirely painless, and patients can expect to feel comfortable throughout the procedure. Besides being painless, GAINSWave is also safe and appropriate for many more men than oral ED medicine. For example, men with high blood pressure, heart disease, or diabetes often can’t take oral ED medicine due to the potentially dangerous side effects. In contrast, shockwave therapy is safe for men with those conditions, allowing more men to increase the strength of their erections without the risks of oral medications.

The ABC’s of Food Waste

If we want to overcome the big crisis of our era, we have to start by making our diet and farming more sustainable. What’s the big crisis you ask? Ultra-processed food and intensive agriculture; it’s damaging us and the world. To attain this objective, governments can put more stress on big agribusiness by means of reformist legislation, and farmers can embrace innovative and invigorating methods. What can you do? Give your support to the farmers in your region. If there are allotments in the town or city in which you live, you can probably see local farmers who’ll gladly provide fresh organic products to your home. Be part of it! Show your solidarity with them by consuming their products.

This month’s book, Food Fix: How to Save Our Health, Our Economy, Our Communities, and Our Planet—One Bite at a Time by Dr. Mark Hyman, encourages us all to join the movement to save our planet and transform the food system. Dr. Hyman mentions 6 ways to do this:

  1. Eat at restaurants that serve organic, farm-to-table, and/or regenerative food.
  2. Look for food labels that identify sustainable, humane food sources.
  3. Support innovation and policies for food and agricultural practices that help to reverse climate change.
  4. Start and support businesses that draw down carbon through agroforestry, silvopasture, holistic grazing, and composting operations.
  5. Reduce your own food waste.
  6. Start a compost pile.

While these are all good points, what we’re going to focus on in this blog is how to reduce our food waste at home. Did you know on average people waste about 25% of the food they buy? Yikes! This translates to a household of 4 roughly throwing away $1,350 to $2,400 per year in food waste. Not only are we wasting food, but money as well. We have to find a way to stop this! So what can we do? It starts at home by learning how to cook using the food you have and grocery shopping with meal planning in mind to save money and food waste.

First off, avoid buying too much food at once. Go to the grocery store or farmer’s market with a plan! It isn’t a bargain after all if you overbuy perishable items you never get the chance to eat! Learn how to store your food properly in addition to not overbuying. Research how to store the fruits, vegetables, and herbs you’ve purchased properly so they don’t spoil quickly. Store fresh produce like carrots and celery by cutting them into sticks and storing in an airtight glass container with a bit of water in the bottom. Quick and healthy snacks that stay fresher longer reduce food waste and improve your health too!

Do you have a plentiful garden? Awesome! Growing your own fruits and vegetables is not only rewarding but also great for gut health. At some point in your growing season, there will be an abundance that you just simply cannot consume all on your own. In this case, share with friends, give to a food pantry, or freeze vegetables to use at a later date by blanching. Turn your excess into jams or can, preserve, or ferment produce to store away for the winter months. Think creatively with what you have so food waste doesn’t happen. If you have lots of herbs and greens, make a pesto! Too many cucumbers? Make some pickles! If you have produce that is starting to turn, use what you can by turning the old into something new like a sauce or vinegar. There are so many creative ways to use up your garden so nothing goes to waste!

Last but not least, meal plan so you know exactly what you’ll be making for the upcoming week before you ever step foot in the grocery store. Only buy what you need for the week, and leave the rest at the store. It will be there next time! Simply reduce waste by shopping in small trips divided up throughout the week, versus taking one big monthly trip. Buy fresh ingredients and have a plan for using them. If you have leftovers, turn them into a brand new dish for lunch the next day by adding fresh herbs or tasty condiments to give it a zip!

There are so many ways to prevent food waste, these are just a few suggestions. What else can you come up with at home? Think like a chef in how to use every perishable item smartly and uniquely in healthy dishes when cooking at home. Learn how to be creative with what you have to save money and food waste. Change starts in your kitchen!

How is Erectile Dysfunction Treated with Acoustic Wave Therapy?

Blood flow is the most important aspect of getting and maintaining an erection. For this reason, poor circulation can cause erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction may also be a result of other health issues, emotional problems, or both.

When a man is sexually aroused, nerves will release chemicals that will increase the flow of blood to the penis. The blood will flow into two chambers that are located in the penis. These chambers are made of spongy muscle tissues. This spongy muscle tissue is referred to as the corpus cavernosum. When a man gets an erection, the corpus cavernosum will relax and then trap the blood inside. The pressure of the blood inside of the chambers will cause the penis to become firm. This is what causes the penis to become hard.

When a man orgasms, another set of nerves will create a signal. When this signal reaches the penis it causes the muscular tissues of the penis to begin to contract. The blood is then released back into circulation. At this time the erection will go down.

When a man is not sexually aroused his penis is going to feel soft and limp. A man may notice the size of his penis varies based on cold, warmth, and even worry. This is quite normal as it reflects the amount of blood that is coming and going through the penis.

Risk Factors for Erectile Dysfunction

There are several known risk factors for developing erectile dysfunction. Many of these risk factors also cause restricted blood flow throughout the body, causing poor circulation that in turn can cause erectile dysfunction. Some of the common risk factors associated with erectile dysfunction include:

  • Age (men over the age of 50 are more likely to develop ED)
  • High blood sugar
  • High blood pressure
  • High cholesterol
  • Obesity
  • Smoking
  • Alcohol consumption
  • Use of illegal drugs
  • Sedentary lifestyle

Erectile dysfunction is more common in men as they get older, however, aging does not always cause a man to develop the condition. Often, erectile dysfunction is the sign that something more serious going on in the body. Given this, it is important that men who are suffering from erectile dysfunction discuss their issue with a GAINSWave® treatment provider.

When Erectile Dysfunction Occurs

Erectile dysfunction occurs when blood flow to the penis is restricted. Health issues such as heart disease, hardened arteries, and diabetes may all cause a lack of blood flow to the penis. Men who smoke are more likely to develop erectile dysfunction since smoking can decrease blood flow throughout the body.

If the penis cannot trap any blood into the spongy tissues located in the erection chambers, they will be unable to achieve an erection. If the blood gets trapped in the penis but cannot stay there, a man will lose his erection. Poor circulation and poor blood flow are both common among men who suffer from erectile dysfunction.

Diagnosing Erectile Dysfunction

In the majority of men who suffer from erectile dysfunction, the cause is likely poor circulation. Poor circulation may be caused by numerous different health issues. In order to diagnose erectile dysfunction, your medical professional will begin by asking you questions about your vascular and heart health along with your erection issues. Your doctor may also perform a physical examination or may refer you to a urologist for lab tests.

When suffering from erectile dysfunction it is important to answer all questions from your health care provider with honesty. Your doctor will likely ask you questions about your current health, prescription medications and over the counter medications you might be taking, your smoking habits, and your alcohol consumption. From this information, your doctor will learn more about what may be causing your erection issues.

Improving Circulation

When it comes to erectile dysfunction, blood circulation is extremely important. There are some lifestyle changes that may help improve the symptoms of erectile dysfunction. If you are overweight, dieting and losing weight may help with your erection issues. Men who smoke should quit as soon as possible.

There are also treatments available that can help to improve circulation. GAINSWave® is a form of erectile dysfunction treatment that uses low-intensity sound waves in order to improve the flow of blood to the penis.
