Patient's question:
I find that I don't have morning erections now, and during this period when I was masturbating, I realized that I simply can no longer get an erection. What is going on with me? Is it erectile dysfunction? It's terrifying. Please: What are the symptoms of erectile dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction refers to a man's inability to achieve an erection, a firm erection that lasts for a short time, or an erection that does not last long enough to complete normal sexual activity, or the inability to insert the penis into the vagina to engage in sexual intercourse. It is also known as "impotence" and is the most common male sexual dysfunction disorder. Occasional success in 1-2 sexual encounters does not necessarily mean one has erectile dysfunction. Only when the failure rate during sexual intercourse is below 25% can it be diagnosed as erectile dysfunction. For patients with erectile dysfunction, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
