Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Does phimosis affect sex?Doctor's answer:
The male reproductive organ can naturally expose the glans and corona in a normal flaccid state, which is normal. If it cannot be exposed but can be lifted to reveal the glans, it is considered phimosis. If it cannot be fully lifted to expose the glans, it is considered paraphimosis! Surgical treatment should be performed as early as possible. During menstruation, it is not advisable to eat spicy, acidic, or other irritating foods, as this can accelerate blood circulation and increase menstrual flow. Additionally, consuming cold drinks or experiencing abdominal coldness during menstruation can impair the body's blood and qi circulation, leading to uterine ischemia and hypoxia, which can easily cause dysmenorrhea.
