Patient's question:
At the age of 20, I used to masturbate quite frequently. Recently, my family introduced me to a partner, and everything seemed fine, except that I realized I might have premature ejaculation. I think it might be due to my past masturbation habits. I'm really suffering now. Could you please advise: Should I take Zhibai Dihuang Wan because of yin deficiency and excess fire, or is it due to nocturnal emissions?Doctor's answer:
From the situation you described, it should be caused by kidney yin deficiency. You can take some medicine to regulate it.I suggest you relax your mind and, if possible, consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for some herbal treatments. Alternatively, you can try taking Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan or Liu Wei Di Huang Wan. Engaging in regular physical exercise and maintaining a sleep schedule of going to bed early and waking up early can also help.
Ejaculation disorders can be cured, but the treatment process is usually slow, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, it’s crucial to actively cooperate with your doctor’s treatment, use medication appropriately, and avoid prolonged sitting or riding. Additionally, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene. I hope male patients can recover quickly!
