I’ve been doing a lot of work from home lately, which means I’m sitting for long hours almost every day. I’ve read somewhere that sitting too much can affect circulation and potentially lead to issues like erectile dysfunction. Does anyone have experience with this, or could share some insights on whether prolonged sitting has impacted them in this way? Any advice on how to counteract these effects would also be appreciated!

Prolonged sitting can indeed impact circulation, which may influence erectile function over time. To counteract this, try incorporating regular breaks to stand or walk around, and consider exercises that promote blood flow, like stretching or strength training. Using a standing desk or setting reminders to move every hour can also be helpful.

I’ve also shifted to working from home, and sitting for long periods can definitely affect our bodies in various ways, including circulation issues. It’s worth noting that good circulation is important for maintaining erectile function. I’ve found that taking short, regular breaks helps; even just standing up and moving around for a few minutes every hour can make a difference. Incorporating some form of exercise into your routine, like a quick walk or stretching, can also improve circulation. A standing desk might be another option to consider if it’s feasible for you.
