Patient's question:
Male, 39 years old. Recently, he has been having sex very quickly, finishing in just a few minutes. His wife has complained to him several times. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
An increase in sexual function should first consider age factors, especially when women reach around the age of menopause at 50. The body may experience additional changes, which could lead to a recurrence of perinatal expansion, increased pelvic blood flow, elevated pelvic floor muscle tension, vaginal dryness, and other issues. All of these can interfere with the sexual response of the reproductive tract, resulting in an increase in sexual function. For a small portion of women, factors such as surgery, such as oophorectomy, hysterectomy, or radical mastectomy, can also disrupt physical and mental health. Many inflammatory conditions of the central and peripheral nervous systems may also lead to an increase in sexual function, such as epilepsy, diabetes, and spinal cord injury.
