Statistics from medical centers dealing with human sexuality tell us women are often unwilling to press their male partners about their impotency or to tell their physicians, assuming emotionally that the problem is in some way the woman's fault. Women can be as deeply in denial about problems of impotency as their male partners even to the extent that failure to communicate openly can destroy the relationship, not to mention the sex lives and self images of those involved. I am not claiming to have answers for those with impaired desire and capacity based on emotional factors. If you are not convinced that exercise, diet, supplements, and attitude can have the same positive effect on emotional factors as they can on physical performance, then I encourage you to seek professional help. In men there is a simple test to distinguish between organic and psychological causes of impotency before you even see your doctor.
