Patient's question:
I have poor erectile function. I had a color Doppler ultrasound, which showed no problems. I had a thorough check for prostatitis, but I don't know if I have it. I was prescribed traditional Chinese medicine and have taken it for half a month, but it hasn't been effective.Doctor's answer:
Suffering from premature ejaculation, in men with sexual desire, the penis cannot become erect or can become erect but is not firm, making it difficult to perform sexual intercourse and leading to sexual difficulties. It is recommended to avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, maintain a healthy diet and sleep schedule. Recurrent premature ejaculation is often caused by conditions such as kidney deficiency, sensitive glans, prostatitis, or excessive foreskin. It is advisable to visit the urology department for a follow-up examination, undergo a physical check-up to determine the specific cause, and treat accordingly. If the glans sensitivity is the issue, the penile dorsal nerve blockage surgery can be considered. Premature ejaculation can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's medication plan is essential during treatment. Additionally, patients should follow a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
