Patient's question:
Male, 55 years old, severe premature ejaculation, unable to achieve erection, for nearly three years. Am I suffering from impotence?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence. Impotence is divided into two types: congenital and pathological. You need sexual function tests and thorough sexual hormone checks to diagnose it. Treatment methods include, non-hormonal drugs, hormonal drugs such as androgens, cavernous anesthesia therapy, and surgical treatment. Due to the inability to conduct a face-to-face examination and fully understand the condition; further clarification of the diagnosis is needed. You should go to a private tertiary hospital's urology department for a thorough examination. The doctor will diagnose based on your symptoms and physical signs, supplemented by clinical diagnostic tests (such as blood and urine tests, sexual function tests, sexual hormone checks, etc.), identify the cause, and then treat accordingly. You can also consult a traditional Chinese medicine doctor for pulse-taking, prescription, decoction, and conditioning treatment.
