Patient's question:
My husband sometimes gets soft halfway through sex but doesn't climax. Other times, he simply can't get hard. I think it might be a sexual dysfunction. My husband doesn't want to go to the hospital for a thorough check-up. What are the main symptoms of sexual dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
You should have erectile dysfunction (ED), and some causes of ED include: psychological factors; any disease that may lead to increased blood flow to the corpora cavernosa of the penis; surgery, trauma causing damage to the blood vessels and nerves of the penis, resulting in ED; endocrine disorders, chronic diseases, and long-term use of certain medications; chronic prostatitis, recurrent benign prostatic hyperplasia that is difficult to treat; it may also be a special disease—penile plaques. Male diseases can be relieved.
