Patient's question:
A friend of mine said he has erectile dysfunction and is afraid he can't get married or have children. I want to know what the symptoms of erectile dysfunction are, and I'll also self-examine.Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of impotence are manifested when a man, despite having sexual desire, cannot achieve an erection or can only achieve a semi-erect state that is not firm enough for sexual intercourse, leading to difficulties during the act. Complete impotence refers to a state where the penis cannot achieve any erection at all, while incomplete impotence refers to a condition where the penis can become erect but lacks the necessary firmness for sexual activity. In the field of sexual medicine, impotence can be classified into early, middle, and late stages.During sexual intercourse, the central nervous system is in a state of high tension. Therefore, it is important to stay calm, relax your mind, and avoid excessive nervousness. Maintain the belief that you can succeed. If the impotence is pathological, it is necessary to seek medical attention for examination and treatment based on the specific symptoms.
