Patient's question:
I am a 40-year-old male. My penis hardness is not enough, and it doesn't get erect easily after stimulation. It becomes soft after staying erect for a while. Basically, it takes me out for a short time before I ejaculate. Ejaculation is weak, and I don't know what medicine to take. I'm afraid of side effects from medication. Should I consider a circumcision surgery for premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
You need to have a thorough examination in the urology department of the hospital, including a routine check of prostatic fluid and a magnetic resonance imaging of the prostate, as it is suspected to be caused by prostatitis. Abstain from sexual activity, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and quit smoking and alcohol. Avoid prolonged sitting and overtime work. Transurethral resection is not recommended. If there is inflammation, oral medication is required for treatment. Premature ejaculation can be alleviated, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor, appropriate medication, a light diet, avoiding spicy foods, and not smoking or drinking beer are essential during treatment.
