Depending on the type of injury, you may have damage to your nerves, ligaments, or discs in your spinal column. Because nerves run from your spinal column throughout your whole body, you might lose your ability to control your actions or feel sensation.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In particular, lower spinal cord injuries come with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/spinal-cord-injury\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20377890\">complications<\/a> like loss of bladder control, loss of skin sensation, and changes to sexual health and sexual performance.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Because the spine <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/erectile-dysfunction\/how-a-strong-spine-helps-your-sexual-performance\/\">plays an important role<\/a> in the erection process, many men with spinal cord injuries will experience erectile dysfunction (ED). This article looks at sex after a spinal cord injury and the research on treatment options available for men with spinal cord injuries that cause ED.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Sex After a Spinal Cord Injury<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fil fr-dib aligncenter\" style=\"width: 900px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediashower.com\/img\/2478F890-F281-11EB-8CCA-AB1F0FD3A263\/AdobeStock_297884199_900x.jpg\" alt=\"Couple sitting on a couch together having a discussion.\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinalcord.com\/rehabilitation-institute-of-chicago-sci-ms\">Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago,<\/a> \u201cA spinal cord injury is a life-changing event. It can affect the ability to function in many ways, including sexuality and intimacy. The way you feel about sex and the ability to have sex is very important but is different for every person. It also holds different levels of importance to people at various times in their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The extent to which sexual functioning is affected by spinal cord injury depends on the level of injury and whether the injury is complete or incomplete. Generally, the more incomplete the injury, the less change in function.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For men, the main physical changes are in sensation, getting erections hard enough for sex, and ejaculating (producing sperm). Emotionally, you have to redefine what intimacy means to you and your partner. For some people, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proquest.com\/docview\/2371561045?fromopenview=true&amp;pq-origsite=gscholar\">this leads to an inactive sex life<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Doctors suggest talking with your partner about sex. Talk about ideas, what works, and what doesn\u2019t. It is a time for complete honesty, doctors say. Only through communication can there be a solution that works for both partners.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you&#8217;d like to learn more about maintaining sexual intimacy after an SCI, watch the following video from Einstein Health.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_78739\"  width=\"1260\" height=\"708\"  data-origwidth=\"1260\" data-origheight=\"708\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zdp_IddpriI?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Erectile Function Matters<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Your sex life is more than just successfully having an erection firm enough for sex. The health of your sex life also depends on your connection with your partner and how you feel about your sexual performance.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">One research team found that several factors predict having an active sex life in men with spinal cord injuries. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Age<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Length of time living with a spinal cord injury<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Severity of the spinal cord injury<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Level of bladder control<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Having a partner<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Good erectile functioning<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">However, erectile function is an important part of the puzzle. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S2050116117300405\">One study,<\/a> published in Sexual Medicine in 2017, found that the only thing that predicted if men with spinal cord injuries were satisfied with their sex lives was their erectile function \u2014 all the more reason to explore medication options to treat ED.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The level of injury often dictates the level of sexual activity. But research is discovering that ED medications can help in many cases.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Available Treatment Options<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"fr-fil fr-dib aligncenter\" style=\"width: 900px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediashower.com\/img\/2478F890-F281-11EB-8CCA-AB1F0FD3A263\/AdobeStock_281245936 (1)_900x.jpg\" alt=\"Holding a blue pill in a palm.\" width=\"900\" height=\"599\" \/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Fortunately, there are treatment options available for men with spinal cord injuries who want to improve their sex lives. If erectile dysfunction is a concern, medications known as phosphodiesterase 5-inhibitors (PDE5 inhibitors) like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/erectile-dysfunction\/buy-viagra\/\">Viagra<\/a> are effective in treating ED. In fact, treatment is usually the same for erectile dysfunction for men with spinal cord injury and those without.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Other treatment options for ED could include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Penile implants<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Vacuum devices<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Penile injections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">What Does the Research Say?<\/h3>\n<h4 dir=\"ltr\"><strong>2007 European Study<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/jamanetwork.com\/journals\/jamaneurology\/fullarticle\/794695\">one study<\/a>, conducted in several European countries, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/erectile-dysfunction\/tadalafil-tabs\/\">tadalafil<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/erectile-dysfunction\/cialis\/\">Cialis<\/a>) was found safe and effective for use by men with SCI.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The European study involved 197 patients and tracked their progress over the course of 12 weeks. On average, the men were about 38 years old. Some men received tadalafil while others received a placebo.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Men taking Cialis were almost 70% more successful in having improved erections compared to those on the placebo. They also had higher rates of successful penetration attempts (75% compared to 41%). The most common side effects were headache and urinary tract infection. \u00a0(Note that the study was published in Archives of Neurology and funded by Lilly, the maker of Cialis.)<\/p>\n<h4 dir=\"ltr\"><strong>2020 Study Confirms<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In a <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full\/10.1111\/andr.12878\">2020 systematic review<\/a>, the findings from the Lilly European study hold true. Men with spinal cord injuries responded well to phosphodiesterase 5-inhibitors (aka PDE5 inhibitors) like Cialis and Viagra. In fact, men with spinal cord injuries preferred PDE5 inhibitors over treatments like prostheses and vacuum devices.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Almost 50 studies were included in this systematic review. The authors concluded, \u201cThe best treatment options for erectile dysfunction in spinal cord injury patients emerged to be phosphodiesterase 5-inhibitors and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/erectile-dysfunction\/effective-ed-treatment\/\">intracavernous drug injection<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Let\u2019s Recap<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you\u2019re living with a spinal cord injury and changes to your sexual performance, help is available. Consider reaching out to a medical professional about your options. This can be a sensitive and stigmatized issue. Thankfully, there are online resources available so you never have to set foot in a doctor\u2019s office if you don\u2019t want to.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">For More Information<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you want to learn more about sex after spinal cord injuries, we strongly recommend visiting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sexualitysci.org\/\">Sexuality After SCI<\/a>. \u00a0This site offers a treasure trove of positive information (Yes, You Can!) in video form for both men and women about all aspects of sexuality following SCI.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Topics include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sexualitysci.org\/adaptive-devices\">adaptive devices<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sexualitysci.org\/dating-after-sci\">dating after SCI<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sexualitysci.org\/debunking-sexual-myths\">debunking the myths of sex after SCI<\/a>.
