The study done in Japan and published by the International Journal Of Impotence Research claims that the vibrations of motorcycle engines can have a damaging effect on nerves in the penis as well as uncomfortable seats pressing down hard on the perineum which can restrict blood flow through the penile artery and thus into the penis.
The researchers also said that engine vibrations could be causing a decrease in the production of specific growth hormones that are needed for healthy bladders and prostates.
The researchers said that all of the men in the study had been previously been sexually active and were not suffering from any noticeable illnesses. Ukmedix News has also seen other research that shows that men who operate heavy machinery such as forklift trucks for long periods of time also have higher levels of erectile dysfunction.
It is possible for men to limit the damage that motorbikes can do to erectile function. It is essential that men have an extremely comfortable bike seat which puts pressure on the buttocks as opposed to the perineum area in between them.
