Patient's question:
My husband has recently experienced some decline in his sexual function, often suffering from erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. Even when wearing a condom, he cannot maintain an erection for more than 2 minutes. Whenever he feels the urge for sex, he takes medication. However, since medication has side effects, how can the treatment be improved to effectively address premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculation disorder is a common male condition. The causes can be categorized into organic and psychological. If the premature ejaculation is caused by an organic disease, patients generally only need to receive timely treatment for the disease that causes premature ejaculation to gradually restore their sexual function. If the premature ejaculation is caused by psychological factors, in addition to receiving psychological counseling, self-treatment methods such as relaxation and Qi enhancement techniques, imagery diffusion techniques, and silent sexual practices can also be used to treat premature ejaculation. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for a thorough examination to clarify the condition before treatment. Maintain a cheerful and optimistic attitude, and avoid alcohol and spicy, stimulating foods.
