Patient's question:
Had sex for several years, now feel lethargic, have difficulty concentrating, and memory decline. Drinking a cup of water at night makes me urinate frequently, about every forty minutes. After a bowel movement, there's a viscous liquid that flows from the urethra. Sometimes urination is uncomfortable (it only happened twice). Libido has declined, and when with my girlfriend, I quickly lose erection due to lack of focus, but I still have morning erections every day. I have premature ejaculation lasting only one minute. Two days ago, I went to Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine for a pulse diagnosis. They said my tongue is red with little coating, and my pulse is wiry. They prescribed some Chinese medicine for prostatitis. Will this be effective?Doctor's answer:
Frequent and prolonged sexual activity can lead to prostatitis, which may cause the symptoms you mentioned. The effectiveness of Bao Jing Wan in treating prostatitis is not ideal. Abstain from sexual activity, avoid spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking and drinking, prevent long hours of sitting and overtime work, and take some oral medications for treatment. Premature ejaculation tends to recur, requiring long-term medication for maintenance. For male patients, it is necessary to seek professional and reputable medical treatment immediately. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
