Patient's question:
I am 24 years old, and I am already suffering from erectile dysfunction. It has been over a year, and I don't know what I should do. I am not married yet?Doctor's answer:
Common symptoms of male sexual dysfunction include incomplete penile erection and low sexual performance. The incidence of impotence is closely related to age. As age increases, the incidence of impotence also rises. Generally, impotence in young people is primarily caused by psychological factors, with a good prognosis. Older individuals find it more difficult to recover due to sexual aging and physical illnesses. Impotence can be classified as primary or secondary. The former refers to individuals who have never engaged in sexual intercourse under any circumstances, regardless of whether they have experienced erections. The latter refers to spontaneous erections during non-sexual activities, such as when waking up from sleep, when the bladder is highly full, or when sexual behavior is satisfied, followed by erectile dysfunction. Primary impotence can be caused by a combination of low libido and sexual performance anxiety.
