Hypogonadism is classified as either primary or secondary. Primary hypogonadism is caused by diseases or defects in the testicles that affect the production of testosterone. Secondary hypogonadism is due to problems in the hypothalamus or pituitary gland that cause high levels of the hormone prolactin. Hypothalamus and pituitary abnormalities also cause low levels of other hormones such as follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. These hormonal imbalances can result in low libido and ED.
As its name suggests, this exercise targets the muscles of the pelvis, strengthening them and increasing their range of motion as they’re rotated clockwise and anticlockwise.

The arms and shoulders are also toned. Go into a plank position. Place your palms firmly on the floor in line with your shoulders. Extend your legs at the back. Keep your elbows and knees straight. Bring your body in one straight line from head to toe. Swing your hips from side to side. Thrust your hips upwards and downwards. Rotate your hips. Repeat in a seamless motion. Cat and cow

Vacuum devices for erectile dysfunction, also called pumps, offer an alternative to medication. To use a pump, the penis is placed inside a cylinder. Then the pump draws air out of the cylinder to create a partial vacuum around the penis causing it to fill with blood, leading to an erection. An elastic band worn around the base of the penis is used to maintain the erection during intercourse. Individuals should discuss the use of this device with their doctor, and especially the elastic band use to avoid potential penile damage.
