Patient's question:
I really love drinking beer. If I don't drink every day, I feel very uncomfortable and my spirits aren't good either. Over time, I've become less restrained. My relationship with my wife has also become more strained. Moreover, I've noticed that I've been feeling weak and unable to perform sexually lately. Also, I don't often have sexual urges. Does heavy drinking lead to sexual dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Sexual function problems are hard to say in the short term. Sometimes, when feeling tense, the duration is not long either. If it happens many times, it can basically confirm that there is an issue. If it's a psychological problem, it will gradually improve with proper care, but it is also the most challenging. Male diseases can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication must be used appropriately based on the symptoms. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid spicy foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
