Patient's question:
My penis was initially only 6 cm long. I had too frequent sexual activity before, for about 8 or 9 years. My kidneys are also not doing well now, often experiencing lower back pain, excessive sweating, and frequent urination, waking up frequently at night to go to the bathroom. After getting married for more than 3 years, our sexual life was always very short, often ending in less than 2 minutes. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The erection of the penis is primarily due to blood filling the penis. If the blood supply is insufficient, it may again exhibit symptoms of impotence. From a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, it is mainly due to insufficient kidney Yang. Sexual intercourse is equivalent to excessive sexual activity in Traditional Chinese Medicine, which can damage kidney essence. If kidney essence is insufficient, it may again lead to impotence. You can consult a local Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner and use some herbs that benefit kidney essence for treatment. For patients with premature ejaculation, timely treatment can reduce recurrence. If not treated promptly, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely treatment based on their symptoms and pay more attention to self-care in daily life.
