Patient's question:
My sexual dysfunction started about half a year ago. My penis has been having difficulty getting erect, sometimes softening within less than thirty seconds of getting hard. Our sexual life has been very difficult, which makes me feel extremely self-conscious. I don't know what to do to completely recover from this condition. If it continues for a long time, our relationship will also deteriorate. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Sexual dysfunction is primarily related to the kidneys, and acupuncture can correct impaired kidney function through the efficacy of meridians, used to treat conditions such as premature ejaculation and nocturnal emissions. Good psychological resilience is important, as individuals with this condition often experience significant stress, which can hinder recovery if not managed properly. Maintaining a calm and balanced mindset is essential for self-healing. For male patients, timely treatment can reduce the frequency of symptoms, whereas delayed treatment may negatively impact overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and targeted treatment, and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
