Patient's question:
I am already particularly weak in bed, feeling as if I have aged. Every time I have sex, my penis takes a very long time to get erect, and its hardness is not very good. My wife is also very dissatisfied. I went to the hospital, and the doctor said I have sexual dysfunction. What could cause sexual dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of sexual dysfunction, such as psychological factors, any disease that may lead to increased blood flow to the corpora cavernosa of the penis, surgery, and trauma that cause damage to the penile blood vessels and nerves, resulting in erectile dysfunction. Endocrine disorders, chronic diseases, and long-term use of certain medications can also contribute to this condition. Prostatitis, recurrent benign prostatic hyperplasia that does not respond to treatment for a long time are also causes. Male diseases can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor and proper medication are essential during the treatment process.
