Patient's question:
I am a male, 23 years old, with a five-year history of masturbation. Recently, I just started dating a girlfriend, and during sexual intercourse, I found that I couldn't get an erection at all. Even when I did, it didn't last very long. Is my condition erectile dysfunction? Please ask: What are the symptoms of erectile dysfunction and what issues should be noted?Doctor's answer:
If premature ejaculation is caused by excessive overthinking, leading to the consumption of kidney yin by heart fire, then it is advisable to use herbs that clear the heart and nourish the kidneys. These can help regulate qi and blood deficiencies and have a very effective treatment effect on impotence and premature ejaculation. If one blindly consumes herbs for strengthening the kidneys and boosting yang, it will obviously have the opposite effect and worsen the condition. Additionally, patients need to maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against cold and warmth, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water to prevent the condition from recurring.
