Impotence, also often referred to as erectile dysfunction, is the inability to have sex due to lack of an erection. The man may not be able to keep an erection long enough to have sex, or he has difficulty getting hard. If you are suffering from impotence, you can treat the problem using natural methods.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Stop smoking. Research has shown that impotence can be caused by smoking and drinking too much. Illegal drugs can also cause a man to be impotent.

  2. Step 2

    Communicate with your partner. Work on your sexual desires as a couple and perhaps incorporate sexual aids into the bedroom. Sex therapy can also help a couple communicate better and treat impotence.

  3. Step 3

    Reduce the stress in your life. If you are feeling stressed or anxious, this may be the cause of your impotence. Dealing with these problems through counseling or other methods can help you treat your impotence.

  4. Step 4

    Begin to diet and exercise. A healthy lifestyle can improve your ability to obtain an erection.

  5. Step 5

    See about a vacuum device to treat impotence. This device is placed on the penis and then a pump is used to get the penis to fill with blood.

  6. Step 6

    Look into herbal remedies for impotence. Yohimbe and ginkgo have both been used to treat impotence naturally. However, if you experience side effects while taking these herbs, stop taking them immediately.

Tips & Warnings
  • If you are still unable to achieve an erection, contact your doctor. He may want to run tests to see if it is related to a medical problem.
  • You may wish to consult your doctor before you use any type of vacuum device on your penis. The best models require a prescription.
