Patient's question:
I've always had a good relationship with my wife, but recently she's had objections to me because I've been unable to get an erection during sex. I don't know why my penis always fails to become erect during intercourse. When I went to the hospital, the doctor said I had developed sexual dysfunction. Why?Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of sexual dysfunction, such as psychological factors; any disease that may increase blood flow to the corpora cavernosa of the penis; surgery, trauma leading to damage to the penile blood vessels and nerves, resulting in erectile dysfunction; endocrine disorders, chronic diseases, and long-term use of certain medications, such as chronic prostatitis, recurrent benign prostatic hyperplasia that is difficult to treat. For male patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease, while delayed treatment can affect their health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting.
