Patient's question:
I have recently been very troubled by issues of impotence and premature ejaculation. Especially at night when I want to engage in sexual activity, I am unable to get an erection and have to give up. I have also bought some aphrodisiacs, but their effects are very short-lived. What should I eat?Doctor's answer:
Patients with impotence and premature ejaculation should consume foods that are warming and dispel cold in their daily lives, and also take in trace elements regularly. This can enhance the excretion of sex hormone, and it is recommended to eat foods such as chives, softshell turtle, and oysters. Animal organs contain a high amount of sex hormones and adrenal cortical hormones, which can increase sperm vitality but reduce sexual desire. Additionally, zinc-rich foods are beneficial for lowering sexual function and effectively preventing premature ejaculation. Premature ejaculation can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medications should be used specifically for the symptoms during treatment.
