Patient's question:
Previously, my wife had blocked fallopian tubes, so we couldn't have children. Now, more than half a year after the surgery, there's still no sign of pregnancy. A few days ago, I went for a check-up, and the doctor told me it was my problem—I have male infertility. I feel very desperate now. Could you please tell me: what are the causes of sexual dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
What are the causes of sexual dysfunction? The causes of sexual dysfunction can generally be divided into four categories: biological factors, psychological factors, and cultural factors. Among these, psychological factors are particularly important. The more direct psychological factors that interfere with sexual function mainly include: (1) incorrect sexual attitudes. Sexual anxiety arising from the fear of sexual success may be the most common cause of premature ejaculation. Inappropriate suggestions about sexual ability or excessive demands on the partner to engage in sexual activity are also fundamental causes of sexual dysfunction. Additionally, another important cause of sexual dysfunction is acting as a "spectator," where one party is anxious and obsessively focused on the partner's reactions during sexual intercourse, thereby diverting their attention.
