Patient's question:
I haven't had morning erections for over a year. In the past, I used to have wet dreams about two or three times a week, then every one or two weeks. During wet dreams, I never got an erection. After wet dreams, I felt mentally exhausted and sleepy, and my stomach and spleen were also not good, often feeling bloated. What should I do about this?Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be a symptom caused by kidney deficiency. You can go to the hospital for a check-up or consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. Develop good living habits, avoid smoking, reduce salt intake, and eat more broccoli, eggplant, fruits, cereal, and many local specialties. Never overeat at meals, and engage in at least 30 minutes of regular exercise every day. For patients with nocturnal emissions, timely treatment can reduce the frequency of episodes. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
