Erection problems, also known as (erectile dysfunction, ED or impotence) are very common, particularly in men over 40. However, in recent times it is becoming more common for younger men to have erection problems as well.

Causes of erectile dysfunction
Most men occasionally fail to get or keep an erection. Some men find it difficult to get hard when they are with sexual partners, and other men get hard, but later lose their erection, which may or may not come back during sex.
This is usually caused by stress, tiredness, anxiety or drinking too much alcohol, and it’s nothing to worry about. If it happens more often, it may be caused by physical health or emotional problems.
There are several common reasons for erectile dysfunction:
- General performance anxiety
- Reliance on porn
- Previous damaging sexual experiences
- Low self-esteem/confidence issues
- Prescription medication
- Condom-triggered ED (losing your erection when you put on a condom)
Important: if you can get and keep an erection when you are on your alone – in the morning perhaps, masturbating (with or without porn) – then the issue of your erectile dysfunction is most likely in your mind – which is where hypnotherapy can help. If you can’t, it’s more likely a physiological issue and would visit your GP to rule out any medical issues.
If you can’t you get it up, because of psychological reasons. This is good news! Hypnosis can help.
How can hypnotherapy help with erection issues?
To get an erection blood flows into the penis, then the muscles flow around the base of the penis to hold onto the blood. Sounds simple?
But there is a little more than that.
A hard on actually begins in the mind, when we have thoughts and sensations of desire and arousal. The brain is the biggest sexual organ in the body. Thoughts cause a physical reaction getting the penis ready for sex. Your heart rate increases and blood is pumped around the body and eventually into your penis. Your thoughts and feelings are essential. If something is affecting them you will struggle to get it up. Your mind is key to getting hard. Hypnotherapy can help with your psychological reasons allowing you to maintain an erection. Allowing you to overcome erectile dysfunction for good.
Can’t I just use Viagra?
Ever tried something for your erectile dysfunction? a device? Pill? Food? What worked? What didn’t? We try those things because we are so desperate to change. But they aren’t going to get to the root of your problems the way hypnosis will. Saving you money and time.
The issue with taking Viagra is that it has many side effects (headaches, high blood pressure etc). It also means that you always have to plan when you’re going to have sex. Surprisingly our mind can still override Viagra and stop it working.
It all comes down to the nervous system.

Do you know that the nervous system can shut down erections?
So when you have anxious thoughts or feelings about an erection, your body thinks there is an immediate threat and trigger fight or flight. Therefore directing blood away from your penis causing your erection to be lost. Your penis is not getting the blood it needs to get hard and stay hard. This creates performance anxiety. On top of this the stress of modern day living such as work and finances can leave us in a constant state of fight or flight. So other parts of your life may also be affecting your erections.
That’s it! The cause of every erection issue you have. No matter what you think might be causing your impotence, it all comes down to the body going into fight or flight.
What if you could control your nervous system and your excessive thoughts and worries?
Hypnosis techniques are great and useful if you want long lasting change from erection problems. It allows you to find out why your mind is going into fight or flight and eradicate these triggers which our brain associated with fear. Hypnotherapy can do this.
