Patient's question:
My husband has erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation every time we have sex. I was wondering, what can be done about easy premature ejaculation and weak erection, and how to deal with the issue of getting easily irritated?Doctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms you described, it seems to align with the concept of "yin deficiency and fire excess" in traditional Chinese medicine, considering your age. The cause is often related to yin deficiency in the heart and kidneys. It is recommended that you first focus on nourishing essence and tonifying the kidneys, and consume more foods that nourish yin and generate fluids. Over-the-counter herbal remedies such as Liuwei Dihuang Wan (Six-Flavor Rehmannia Pill) and Qingxin Lianzi Yin (Calming Heart and Lotus Seed Decoction) can be used to regulate and try to improve the condition. For patients with erectile dysfunction, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely and targeted treatment, and maintain a regular sex life in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
