Patient's question:
I want to know if premature ejaculation is better treated with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) or Western medicine. My friend said TCM is better, but it is said that TCM treatment is slower.Doctor's answer:
For premature ejaculation, it is better to consult a Western medicine doctor. Because traditional Chinese medicine treatment for it is only an auxiliary therapy, and the effect will be relatively slow. The best approach is to suggest a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine for symptomatic treatment. Currently, it is recommended that you first undergo relevant and thorough examinations at the urology department of a hospital. Then, the doctor can provide symptomatic treatment based on the examination results. During the treatment period, it is strictly recommended to avoid sexual activity, get adequate rest, and not take any aphrodisiac medications. Regular follow-up examinations are advised.
