Patient's question:
I got seriously ill last year and didn't have sexual intercourse with my wife for a year. Now my condition has mostly healed, but my body hasn't fully recovered yet. My wife usually buys me country-style chicken and pig stomachs to help me recuperate. Last night, I wanted to have sex with my wife, but when I rubbed my penis against her vagina, I couldn't get hard. I tried masturbating, but I came almost immediately after starting.How can one determine if it's premature ejaculation? Does my situation qualify as premature ejaculation?
Doctor's answer:
Your current issue is having erectile dysfunction, with a counterproductive mindset towards premature ejaculation. Premature ejaculation also refers to early ejaculation, and it's quite simple to diagnose. It involves an inability to enjoy sexual needs and having a very short sexual duration, which are both signs of premature ejaculation. Additionally, if the penis cannot achieve normal erection, it is also considered premature ejaculation.Your current problem still stems from your body being too weak and not yet fully recovered. Don’t worry too much—gradually work on your body, and if necessary, you can also use some aphrodisiac medications in coordination.
