It doesn't take much for external circumstances and associated changes of how we think for this to have a negative impact our sex lives, whether this is an inexorable diminishment in intimacy or physical changes that affect our lives. Neuroplasticity has shown that impotence from prostate surgery, for example, is not inevitable: the brain can and does develop new pathways when old ones become dysfunctional. Lack of confidence with potential partners is often due to a fear of not being good enough or an unwillingness to risk being rejected. And uncertainty about aspects of male sexuality can also be resolved.
