Patient's question:
Male, only thirty years old, I have recently discovered that my husband's sexual function is not working well. During intimate moments, he often fails to get erect, and he seems to have completely lost interest in sex. No matter how I tease him, he shows little reaction. I want to know what to do when a man's sexual function is not working?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction in males can be caused by several factors. One is situational premature ejaculation, also known as psychological premature ejaculation. The other is organic premature ejaculation, which is often associated with certain organic diseases, such as hypertension, high blood lipids, diabetes, heart disease, or various conditions affecting the penis itself, such as penile plaques, penile curvature, or penile corpus cavernosum injury. These organic issues require treatment to control the underlying condition, and in addition, you can take Chinese and Western medications to address the erectile dysfunction. If there is venous leakage, surgical treatment may also be necessary.
