Patient's question:
In middle school, I had some bad habits. Now I have symptoms like excessive thirst, dizziness, frequent urination, general weakness, and premature ejaculation (less than a minute). On the third day, I feel very sleepy and want to take a nap. Is it kidney deficiency? What type is it? Do I need to go to the hospital for a thorough examination? If so, which tests should be done? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
The recurrence of premature ejaculation is associated with multiple different factors, primarily linked to deficiency (kidney, heart, spleen deficiency) and damp-heat in the liver and gallbladder. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the kidney is equivalent to the functions of the reproductive and endocrine systems (storing essence, generating essence), and it has a very close relationship with the anterior and posterior private parts of the human body (the kidney governs the two private parts). It stores and releases the body's perinatal substances (including semen) and growth substances, and controls the metabolic functions of the body, including sexual function.
