Patient's question:
Yesterday, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up on my sexual function, and there were no issues. However, during sexual activity, my penis wasn't hard enough to penetrate. I quickly ejaculated due to the habit of intercourse. I then consulted a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, who said I have a deficiency of kidney yang and prescribed Golden Sword Tablets and Mong Wang Twenty-One Herbs. After taking them, my waist became extremely bloated. I'm worried it might be a side effect. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
These two medications are both considered highly tonic herbs. Sometimes, your body may not be able to tolerate such tonics and may not fully digest them, which could lead to this situation reappearing. This isn’t a major issue. Male health conditions tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it’s important to seek professional and reputable medical attention immediately. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it’s necessary to restrict sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
