Patient's question:
Previously, there was approximately one sexual intercourse per day for about three months. Afterward, when having sex with my girlfriend, I found it difficult to get an erection, and the hardness was not sufficient. After abstaining from sexual activity for more than half a month while maintaining regular exercise and a disciplined lifestyle, now slight stimulation of the penis can lead to an erection. The erection duration is slightly longer in lying and sitting positions but shorter in a standing position. The hardness of the erection has stabilized significantly.How can this condition be fully recovered through perseverance, exercise, and a disciplined lifestyle? Is there a need for medication treatment?
Doctor's answer:
You had frequent sexual activity, leading to premature ejaculation and even erectile dysfunction. It is recommended to abstain from sexual activity. Continue to strengthen physical exercise to improve physical fitness, stabilize bodily functions, and pay attention to developing the habit of abstaining from sexual activity. Additionally, consume more foods that enhance virility, which are beneficial for improving your body. You can also take some herbs that strengthen sexual energy. Premature ejaculation can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with your doctor during treatment, use medication appropriately, and maintain a light diet. Avoid spicy foods, smoking, and drinking beer.
