Patient's question:
I've been experiencing some symptoms of premature ejaculation in the past two years, and the time I can last has been getting shorter each time. Two years ago, I could last for over ten minutes, but now sometimes I'm lucky if I can last for a few minutes. I'm only in my forties, so how is it that I'm experiencing premature ejaculation? Can premature ejaculation be cured?Doctor's answer:
Generally, premature ejaculation can be treated. If you want to cure premature ejaculation, you need long-term treatment. In this case, it is recommended not to masturbate or engage in sexual activity. You can adopt a conservative treatment method using traditional Chinese medicine, such as taking herbal formulas like Liuwei Dihuang Wan (Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill) or Jinkui Shenqi Wan (Golden Cabinet Kidney Qi Pill) for long-term regulation. If the effect is not satisfactory, it is advisable to promptly seek medical attention at a relevant hospital to undergo the penile (penile dorsal nerve resection) to reduce the sensitivity of the glans. For premature ejaculation patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition, whereas delayed treatment may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely medication treatment.
