Patient's question:
I have always had the habit of sexual intercourse, almost several times a week. In the past two months, I've been feeling very sore in my lower back, lacking energy, and unable to get an erection. Watching porn also doesn't help, and my glans is somewhat sensitive. I can't complete sexual intercourse with my girlfriend. After a thorough check-up at the hospital, the doctor said it was premature ejaculation. What medicine should be taken to treat impotence?Doctor's answer:
Premature ejaculation and other sexual dysfunction disorders often cause patients mental distress, and may even lead to family discord, directly impacting physical and mental health as well as work performance. Currently, there are differing views on the etiology of this condition, with blood-related factors being particularly complex. Inflammation of the kidneys primarily falls into several categories: kidney Yang deficiency, kidney essence deficiency, and kidney Qi deficiency. The recurrence of premature ejaculation in men is often due to excessive indulgence in sexual activity or youthful mistakes in sexual intercourse, leading to a decline in the "Gate of Life" fire and a deficiency of vital essence and coldness; or it may result from overthinking and melancholy, damaging the heart and spleen; or fear may injure the kidneys. There are also cases where damp-heat accumulation leads to relaxation and atrophy of the sinews. However, the primary cause is the decline of kidney Yang, leading to atrophy.
