Vital organs Shrinking Over Age

Upon reaching adulthood, all components of the body can not grow anymore, actually decreased due to aging. In addition to height, body organs also shortened, including vital organs.

Male sexual organs shorten with age for two reasons. First, a layer of fat (plaque) deposited in the small arteries in the penis so that impede blood flow.

Poor circulation causes atrophy (atrophy) in the penile tissue that relaxes muscles and vital organs causing this loss of thickness and length. Besides collagen gradually loses its elasticity, whereas the fibrous layer is very instrumental in the erection.

"If at age 30 a man's erect penis size reaches 15 cm, then at the age of 60-70 years may be the size of his penis when erect is only a 12.7 cm," said Dr.Irwin Goldstein, director of sexual health from Alvarado Hospital, San Diego, USA.

He added, at the age of about 40 years, the testes will also shrink to the diameter of one centimeter from the time he was 30.

In women, the sexual organ changes that occur associated with reduced levels of estrogen at menopause so that blood flow to the sex organs is reduced. The size of the uterus is also reduced, so the size is the same as when the pre-teen age. This happens because the body regulate the organs were no longer active so that other resources can be used for other organs that are still active.

Reduced estrogen levels also mean mammary glands and mammary glands become inactive and replaced by fat. As a result of breast also lose their elasticity. Natural tear on the fibers that support skin and ligaments also will make breasts sag more and more visible.

Age increases are inevitable, but that does not mean we can not do anything to keep up appearances.

For men, a healthy diet low in fat and highly recommended for a healthy heart and a good sex life. This healthy diet will ensure all work fine blood vessels so that blood circulation becomes smooth.

In women, there are several things you can do to improve breast shape, such as muscle toning exercises or wear the top of the breast that can support well.

Sexual relations are conducted on a regular basis can also slow down the depreciation of the vital organs. "Frequent sex will blood circulation and oxygen supply to sexual organs," said Graham Jackson, consultant cardiologist from London.
