Patient's question:
My foreskin opening is relatively small, and when I retract it, the head of my penis cannot be exposed. Every time I have sex with my girlfriend, I experience difficulty in ejaculation, and I never feel sexual climax. Does phimosis affect sexual function?Doctor's answer:
Contrary to the reasons behind premature ejaculation caused by excessive foreskin, retrograde ejaculation is often triggered by phimosis. In this case, since the glans is excessively protected by the skin, the rich nerve conduction and excitatory function of the glans are lost. During sexual activity, the stimulation intensity required to trigger ejaculation cannot be achieved, making it easy for male diseases to recur, necessitating long-term oral medication. Moreover, male patients should promptly seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals, considering treatment options based on thorough examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained.
