Patient's question:
In March of this year, I have already started experiencing occasional weak erections and difficulty achieving erection, with a tendency to improve. I have taken Wuzi Yanzong Wan and Liuwei Dihuang Wan, but the results were not ideal. I also took Shenbao Pian, which was effective, but the condition worsened after stopping the medication. I had ultrasound and urinalysis, as well as blood tests, and visited a urologist at a first-tier hospital who said I'm still young and should wait and see, along with resting for a while. I have a 9-year sexual history, often staying up late. Now, I have morning erections, but they are difficult to achieve and weak. Drinking tea beverages often causes a white tongue coating—how should this be managed?Doctor's answer:
Due to a 9-year sexual history, severe damage to the true yang has occurred. Minimal or short-term tonifying herbs like Wuzi Yanzong Wan and Liuwei Dihuang Wan, as well as Shenbao Pian, have proven ineffective. Consuming tea beverages often leads to a white tongue, which is a result of insufficient true yang and the inability to metabolize fluids. The condition of weak erection tends to fluctuate, requiring long-term medication to maintain stability. For male patients, it is crucial to seek professional and reputable medical attention immediately. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is important to control sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
