In China, bicycles have always been the means of transportation for most citizens, and many people regard cycling as a way of fitness. However, the saying that cycling will affect men's erectile function makes some people feel scared when cycling for fitness. Is this statement true or false? Huang Guangmin, chief physician of the Institute of Sports Medicine of the State Sports General Administration, believes that cycling will not affect male erectile function, but will help. When riding a bike, your legs keep moving. Because the nerves that dominate leg movements and cause penile erection belong to the lumbar plexus, cycling exercises the legs and indirectly exercises sexual function. If you lean forward and pedal while riding a bicycle, especially in racing, the bicycle cushion will stimulate the perineum and play the role of local massage. If you can ride a bicycle properly every day, the riding posture is correct and the height of the cushion is moderate, which is not only good for the perineum, but also helpful for penile erection. Some surveys have found that male cyclists have the best erectile function. Huang Guangmin said that the causes of erectile dysfunction are complicated, besides emotional and psychological factors, there may be pathological reasons.
