Patient's question:
It might be due to the stress from work recently, my husband has been under a lot of mental pressure lately. During this period, he always has difficulty getting erect during sex, and sometimes even when he does get erect, it doesn't last very long. I've asked a doctor, and he said this is a symptom of premature ejaculation. What are the causes of male erectile dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Premature ejaculation is also known as erectile dysfunction, which refers to the inability of the penis to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse. If treatment is not timely, it may lead to the inability of the penis to erect, resulting in the inability to engage in normal sexual life, affecting marital relationships, and impacting quality of life. Chronic inflammation of the urinary and reproductive organs leading to premature ejaculation is relatively common, such as orchitis, epididymitis, urethritis, cystitis, prostatitis, etc., among which chronic prostatitis is the most common cause of recurrent premature ejaculation.
