Patient's question:
I'm only in my late 20s, but I've noticed that I don't have morning erections anymore. Recently, when I've been masturbating, I've found that I can't get an erection at all. What's going on here? Is this erectile dysfunction? It's terrifying. Please advise: What should I do if I suspect I have erectile dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Premature ejaculation refers to the inability to achieve an effective erection before sexual activity, making it impossible to complete normal intercourse. Since you are young, although you have frequent sexual activity, occasional episodes of weak erection are not pathological. It is recommended to actively control the frequency of sexual intercourse to prevent it from being too frequent. There should not be a major problem, so please do not worry too much. For premature ejaculation patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it may affect health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
