Patient's question:
I have always had the habit of sexual intercourse, almost several times a week. In the past two months, I've been feeling very sore in my waist, lacking energy, unable to get an erection, and even watching porn has no effect. My glans is also somewhat sensitive, making it difficult to complete sexual intercourse with my girlfriend. After a thorough check-up at the hospital, the doctor said it was premature ejaculation. What medicine can be taken to treat impotence?Doctor's answer:
Premature ejaculation and other sexual dysfunction disorders often cause patients mental distress, and may even lead to family discord, directly impacting physical and mental health as well as work performance. Currently, there are differing views on the etiology of this condition, with blood-related factors being particularly complex. Kidney inflammation primarily involves aspects such as kidney Yang deficiency, kidney essence depletion, and kidney Qi deficiency. The recurrence of premature ejaculation in men is often due to excessive indulgence in sexual activity or youthful mistakes in sexual intercourse, leading to declining life gate fire and coldness in essence and Qi; or due to overthinking and melancholy, damaging the heart and spleen; or fear damaging the kidneys, as well as damp-heat accumulation leading to relaxation and atrophy of the sinews. However, the main cause is kidney Yang deficiency leading to atrophy.
