Patient's question:
I am a 37-year-old male with a five-year history of masturbation. Recently, I just started dating a girlfriend, and during sexual activity, I found that I simply cannot get an erection. Even when I do get an erection, it doesn't last very long. Is my condition considered erectile dysfunction? Please ask: What are the appropriate treatments for male erectile dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
There are several causes of erectile dysfunction, such as: psychological factors, vascular diseases, prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, hypertension, diabetes, penile plaques, etc. Your condition may be related to prostatitis. It is recommended that you seek early treatment for prostatitis, as sexual function may gradually improve. There are many methods for treating diseases, but since the patient's condition is different, the treatment methods will also vary. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek professional help for detailed testing as soon as possible to prescribe the correct treatment.
