Patient's question:
I tend to believe in Traditional Chinese Medicine. So, I'd like to understand how long one needs to drink traditional Chinese medicine to treat prostatitis. If the prostatitis is cured, will premature ejaculation also be cured? Thank you, doctorDoctor's answer:
According to your current condition, it is advisable to consider the deficiency of kidney essence and the instability of kidney qi as mentioned in Traditional Chinese Medicine, which may lead to lower urinary tract damp-heat, resulting in an increase in sexual performance duration. It is recommended that you visit a professional traditional Chinese medicine hospital to comprehensively evaluate your tongue and pulse to confirm the syndrome type. Under the guidance of the pharmacist and physician, choose herbs that replenish qi and clear lower urinary tract damp-heat to treat the condition, while paying attention to drinking more water. Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with your doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a balanced diet during the treatment period.
