Patient's question:
I recently haven't felt any unusual symptoms in my body. However, during sexual activity, I can't get hard. I also smoke and drink beer rarely. The doctor said it's premature ejaculation. What are the common symptoms of premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction, also known as premature ejaculation, refers to the inability to achieve or maintain an erection during sexual arousal, or the inability to maintain a sufficient level of hardness for an adequate duration of sexual activity, thereby interfering with or preventing the completion of intercourse. Poor lifestyle habits such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, prolonged sitting, high stress, and frequent sexual activity can all contribute to it. Its incidence rate is relatively high, so prevention is crucial. It is important to maintain a positive mood, adjust lifestyle, foster harmony between partners, practice moderation in sexual activity, and strengthen physical fitness through exercise.
