Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. Since the onset of puberty, I have developed a compulsion for sexual intercourse. Although I know that sexual intercourse is harmful, I cannot resist it. As a result, I now suffer from premature ejaculation and am experiencing great distress. Can excessive sexual intercourse leading to premature ejaculation be treated?Doctor's answer:
Individuals with premature ejaculation caused by excessive sexual activity are generally exhibiting symptoms of yang deficiency. When this situation reoccurs, it is important to first consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to take the pulse and confirm the condition. After diagnosing the issue, timely medication should be administered to address the specific symptoms, which can gradually lead to stabilization. In daily life, it is advisable to quickly abstain from sexual activity, enhance physical exercise, and improve overall physical fitness. Additionally, consuming moderate amounts of beef, lamb, and dog meat can be beneficial, as these foods have properties that strengthen yang.
