Scientists Discover That Riding can Cause Erectile Dysfunction

Your posterior and lower back are wonderful support mechanisms, working in perfect harmony to keep your body upright, and helping you maintain comfort when sitting down for short periods of time.

However, when exposed to firm, unsupportive surfaces like a typical motorcycle seat, these areas bear the brunt of your body weight, leading to soreness and discomfort. Especially during extended motorcycle rides.

And with every mile you clock, the more and more the nerves and bones in your lower back and buttocks are subjected to severe pressure from the hard surface of standard motorcycle seats, restricting blood flow, and putting pressure in areas not meant to withstand the level of pressure exposure.

But what a lot of doctors don’t tell you is that this seemingly “annoying-ache” can lead to a number of more serious issues.

Avoid the pain and discomfort at all costs

Did you know that an estimated 75% of motorcycle riders experience seat-related discomfort on long rides?

For many motorcycle enthusiasts, a sore butt comes with the territory. Most motorcyclists put up with the pain as they enjoy the ride.

But that discomfort can mask a more serious long term issue - damage to the pudendal nerve!

What is the Pudendal nerve?

The pudendal nerve runs through the base of your pelvis, controlling bladder and bowel function, as well as sexual function and sensation in the genitals and inner thighs.

This can lead to…

Errectile Disfunction

If you aren’t taking Alpha BRAIN®, you are operating at a disadvantage.

Find out why.

According to a Harvard University study, riding can cause Erectile dysfunction.

For both men and women, the pudendal nerve is essential for sexual function.

In men, it can lead to erectile dysfunction or ejaculation problems. In women, it can cause pain during intercourse or even difficulty achieving orgasm.

Bladder Issues

The pudendal nerve controls the muscles that help us control urination. If the nerve is compressed over time (such as riding a motorcycle), it can lead to difficulty starting or stopping urination, or even incontinence later in life.

According to the American Physiological Society, patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) also suffer from urgency incontinence, which is one of the major symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome. Pudendal nerve injury has been recognized as a likely cause for both SUI and OAB.

Bowel Function

The pudendal nerve also plays a role in bowel control. Pinched nerves can cause constipation or fecal urgency.

The effects of riding a motorcycle long distances over many years may not immediately be apparent (the odd ache and needing to shift around on the seat or pain in the genitals) but over a long period of time this unnatural position undoubtedly puts pressure on the pudendal nerve.

Prostate Cancer

To add to this, a 2017 report by Cycling Weekly, determined a higher rate of prostate cancer among men who rode at least eight hours a week, compared with those who rode less than 3.75 hours, this was because putting pressure on the prostate can cause inflammation over time. Although this stat is around cycling and not motorcycles, it has the same relevance.

Here's The Real Cause of Your Pain

Most people think it's just part of riding...


But it turns out the real reason for your seat pain is the lack of blood flow delivering nutrient rich oxygen to the vital parts of your body to keep it functioning as it should.



This coupled with a lack of adequate seating conditions and lack of proper support in place!

Luckily there are solutions out there...
