Patient's question:
I used to masturbate frequently, but now that I'm married, it happens about 10% of the time. Sometimes it's difficult to get erect, or if I do, it gets soft quickly, and then it's hard to get erect again. It's causing me psychological pressure now. As soon as I get erect, I put it in, and it becomes painful when it goes soft. The duration is about 5 minutes, but it's around 15 minutes, roughly about 10 minutes. What kind of medicine should I take?Doctor's answer:
Hello, moderate masturbation is beneficial and harmless to the body. Long-term and frequent masturbation can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, lower back pain, leg weakness, mental fatigue, decreased libido, premature ejaculation, nocturnal emission, and anejaculation, indicating a decline in sexual function. In poor hygiene conditions, it can also cause recurring urinary and reproductive infections such as balanitis or prostatitis. In severe cases, it may lead to neurasthenia or infertility. Therefore, it is recommended that you stop masturbating promptly, relax your mind, and develop good living hygiene habits. If these measures do not alleviate the condition, you should undergo relevant male prostate examinations.
