Patient's question:
This year, I entered marriage for the second time, and my wife is six years younger than me. After the marriage, I discovered that my sexual function had encountered "troubles," not only struggling with erections but also being unable to last. Many attempts ended in failure. How can I effectively treat premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction, also known as premature ejaculation, refers to the inability of the penis to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse. If left untreated, it may lead to the inability to achieve an erection, resulting in the inability to engage in normal sexual activity, affecting marital relationships, quality of life, and potentially leading to infertility, among other issues. Therefore, it is recommended that if there is a possibility of erectile dysfunction, one should seek medical attention early for thorough tests, such as erectile function evaluations and other detailed examinations related to sexual function. Treatment should be considered based on the results of these evaluations.
