Did 1 Dental Xray Make Me Impotent or is it Mental?

Postby kinggg » Wed Apr 07, 2021 11:06 am

I'm literally going crazy and need your honest, serious opinion. I went to the dentist last friday and had one dental xray done that day. I went to the dentist thinking this xray will give me more erectile dysfunction than I already have which I've been suffering from for 25 years and has gotten worse as time goes by.

But now I dont get morning wood since that last friday, although I did get morning wood the day after getting this one xray. Did this xray do something to my ability of getting morning wood or is this all in my mind?

There were experiments by the Nazis in the 40's where tissues were destroyed by massive X-ray bombardment. Short of that sort of exposure there is nothing X-rays can do to your tissues that would cause E.D. Also remember, your teeth are a long way from your gonads.

You are worrying about a myth. The worry can cause E.D., but the X-rays did not. (edited to correct spelling, "now" vs "not")

Hi lost sheep.. very good hearing from you again brother. But what about the dental xrays that may penetrate your brain and therefore affect libido? What do you think about this?

Totally false fear. If you look at the xray machine. It is very small & does not point towards your brain at all. It is a very narrow beam that is aimed towards the film that is behind your teeth. Your brain is above any part of that narrow beam.

Now that the X-Ray thing is put to rest, who wants to talk about 5G?

Just kidding. (Or am I?)

But there is some evidence that pollution of various kinds do affect hormones. developing fetuses and growing youths. "Diseases of civilization". They came along in the same train that brought the medical science to get Viagra, Tri-mix and implants.

I've been having dental x-rays pretty much all my life due to bad teeth and lots of work on them. Had no effect on my erections from age 17-55. At 55 is when ED began.
