Patient's question:
Usually, I don't like sexual intercourse very much. Recently, when I've been in the bedroom with my wife, I've been unable to get hard, and it made her think I was having an affair. After a thorough check-up at the hospital, it was found that I have sexual dysfunction. What should I pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
Use medication cautiously. Many medications can affect a person's libido and sexual performance, such as antidepressants, diuretics, cholesterol-lowering drugs, and anti-inflammatory drugs, among others. Patients should closely monitor how their sexual life is regulated while using these medications. If problems reoccur, it is important to communicate with a doctor promptly to determine alternative treatments and strive to minimize the impact of medication on sexual function. For male patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease, whereas delayed treatment can affect overall health.
