Patient's question:
Male, 20 years old, I am going to join the army, but my friends say that sexual function will be affected after joining the army. Please ask: Why don't soldiers have good sexual function?Doctor's answer:
Your perspective might not be entirely accurate. After serving in the military, sexual function remains normal unless you develop a physical illness during the process. However, this cannot be attributed to the military service itself. When it comes to sexual function, men often exhibit a bit of neuroticism. Once they notice a change in their sexual performance compared to before, they become overly anxious and constantly question whether their sexual function is declining. Some even resort to taking all sorts of dubious "snake oil" remedies, only to find that they have no effect and may even worsen the situation.
