HYDERABAD: If famous sexologist Sudhakar Krishnamurthy is to be believed, sex is good for the bottomline. But then, India is sitting on a virtual time bomb of erectile dysfunction (ED) which could lead to a drastic drop in productivity of the Indian office-worker if not addressed in time. Want to know more? Read on.

"The mantra for success at work is good sex three to five times a week at home," Dr Krishnamurthy told 1000-odd delegates at the 55th Congress of the Travel Agents Association of India (TAAI).

It generates more testosterone in men and estrogen in women which are good for overall fitness. And if that is not enough, sex is also one of the best medicines for all-round health.

For women, sex has mood elevating properties, cuts depression, improves skin texture and hair glow, apart from being a good treatment for headache itself. And for men it means increased longevity, charm and better performance in the office, the doctor said, speaking on the topic, 'Bedroom to Boardroom'.

"But mind you switching partners may not be good for your health," he warned. Every time a male has sex with more than one woman, he increases the chances of cancer that much more.

On the flip side however, despite being the world's most populous country India faces the danger of a larger problem —that is high incidence of erectile dysfunction, Krishnamurthy warned. There are an estimated 152 million ED persons in India and increasing at an alarming rate of 14% annually, he said.

And a reason for this is the high incidence of common disease in men like diabetes, hypertension, atherosclerosis, heart disease, neurological disorders, among a host of others that mostly go untreated.

It especially affects diabetics (more than 50% of whom are impotent), smokers, alcoholics, patients with liver, kidney and heart disease, men who are on medication for unrelated disorders such as hypertension, peptic ulcer or depression (more than 250 drugs are known to cause impotence) etc..  There is a direct correlation between these and erectile dysfunction, the sexologist said. In fact, path-breaking research has shown that 52% of all males above 40 years suffer from different degrees of erectile dysfunction. What is more worrying is that most males are in denial of this state, lamented the expert.
