Patient's question:
Recently, my old problem has recurred, and they say I need treatment again. How should I treat premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) believes that premature ejaculation is a condition in young and middle-aged men where the zongjin (penis) becomes loose and limp due to reasons such as deficiency, fright, or damp-heat, leading to a soft and non-erect penis, or an erection that is not firm during sexual activity. TCM holds that male sexual dysfunction and certain chronic diseases often manifest with premature ejaculation as their underlying cause. In clinical diagnosis, the effects of TCM's nourishing and regulating methods are generally quite good. Premature ejaculation is often a cumulative condition, so it is crucial not to rush for quick results by using overly tonic herbs or potent aphrodisiacs with unclear ingredients. For patients, if the condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered.
