Patient's question:
I am 36 years old this year, and I have been having sex since 2002. Gradually, my sexual function has declined, showing reduced hardness and shorter duration. Last night, when I was with my girlfriend, the erection hardness was insufficient from the start, and I softened before even penetrating, which was less than a minute. Later, it hardened again, but only for about ten seconds before softening again, making it impossible to have normal sexual intercourse. My girlfriend is blaming me and wants to divorce, and I am very hurt. Is this situation caused by sexual intercourse-induced damage to the corpora cavernosa of the penis? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described above, the 36-year-old male has a history of sexual activity and now finds that the duration of his erection is not long enough and the hardness of his erection is insufficient. In your case, chronic prostatitis and kidney deficiency should be the primary considerations. It is necessary to diagnose through laboratory tests. It is recommended to go to the hospital for relevant laboratory tests to confirm the diagnosis, and then targeted treatment can be adopted based on the test results. For patients with premature ejaculation, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If it is not treated in time, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication in a timely manner and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
