What should be prepared before a sexual function examination? What are the tests involved?

Patient's question:

What preparations are needed before a thorough check-up of sexual function? What tests are involved? I have been having sex daily recently, and on the 7th, my penis didn't get as hard as usual, and my kidneys felt strained during erection. What should I check?

Doctor's answer:

Mainly, it is important to carefully check the six sexual hormones, routine semen analysis, and reproductive system color Doppler ultrasound, etc. Frequent sexual activity, overindulgence, overwork, (overtime), illness with fever, and poor sexual environment can all lead to poor erection. It is recommended to avoid frequent sexual activity and overindulgence, prevent overwork and overtime, avoid prolonged sitting, eat less spicy and irritating foods, and can practice deep squats and kegel exercises more. For male patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If not treated in a timely manner, it will affect health. Therefore, patients should take timely symptomatic treatment and pay attention to preventing overwork and maintaining personal hygiene in daily life.
