Patient's question:
I've been divorced from my wife for a year. Before the divorce, we didn't have any sexual relations. Now, I feel very troubled because every time I get intimate with my wife, I get erect quickly but it's not hard, and the time isn't long either—I always finish too soon. Although my wife didn't say anything, I feel very embarrassed. What should I do now?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation have many causes, including pathological and psychological factors, and sometimes both can coexist. Physical diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, diabetes, hypertension, liver and kidney diseases, prostate diseases, endocrine disorders, and other organic conditions, as well as mental health issues and unhealthy lifestyles, can manifest as male sexual dysfunction. For male patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition, whereas delayed treatment may affect their overall health.
