Patient's question:
Doctor, I would like to consult about my boyfriend's sexual dysfunction. He needs to watch pornographic movies to get hard during sex; otherwise, he can't get erect. Additionally, he doesn't climax for a long time and still doesn't ejaculate even after losing his high. I think these issues are all due to sexual dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Sexual dysfunction, in clinical diagnosis, if it is encountered during daily sexual stimulation, the penis takes a long time to become erect. If this situation occurs again, the first step is to check whether it is due to physical nutritional dysfunction and endocrine imbalance, leading to sexual dysfunction caused by damp-heat accumulation in the lower body. In this case, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for conditioning, such as some heat-clearing and damp-dispelling herbs. The most commonly used drugs in clinical diagnosis include herbs like Plantago asiatica or Gentiana scabra, among others.
