Are you aware of the dangers that excessive porn consumption can have on your brain? In this episode, we will take a deep dive with Cognitive Neuroscientist and Certified Sexual Addiction Recovery Coach, Dr. Trish Leigh, into the effects that porn can have on the brain and explore how it can lead to erection problems. In this era of modern technology, access to porn has become increasingly prevalent. Nevertheless, what many fail to realize is that porn can have long-lasting negative effects on both the brain and the body.   Studies have shown that porn addiction can lead to changes in brain structure and function. In particular, it can cause desensitization to sexual stimuli, leading to a decrease in sexual responsiveness. This can result in difficulties achieving and maintaining an erection, known as erectile dysfunction (ED).   According to Dr. Leigh, the more we watch porn, the more our brains become desensitized to dopamine, requiring us to watch more and more extreme content to achieve the same level of satisfaction. This desensitization can lead to a decrease in sexual arousal and performance, ultimately causing ED.   Moreover, excessive porn consumption can also lead to anxiety and depression. This is because porn can create unrealistic expectations of sex and intimacy, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy and disappointment in real-life sexual encounters. This can further exacerbate the problem of ED, as anxiety and depression are also common causes of ED. Watching porn can have significant effects on the brain, leading to changes in brain structure and function, and can cause erection problems. It's essential to be aware of the potential risks associated with excessive porn consumption and seek help if you or someone you know is struggling with porn addiction or ED. Remember, Your Brain on Porn can have lasting effects on your sexual health and overall well-being.   For more free erectile dysfunction education and resources, please visit: https://erectioniq.com/    Mark Goldberg helps men resolve erectile dysfunction.
