Patient's question:
I noticed that I'm a bit different from before, and it's hard for me to get erect now. This makes me a bit worried, and my girlfriend suspects that I might have premature ejaculation. Recently, I want to get a thorough check-up, but I've never had one for this before, so I want to ask what department is responsible for premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if the penis cannot achieve normal erection, it can be confirmed as premature ejaculation. From a TCM perspective, it is caused by kidney deficiency, so it is first recommended to have a thorough examination in the TCM department. If kidney deficiency is confirmed, treatment to replenish the kidneys should be implemented. If kidney deficiency is ruled out, it is necessary to consider prostatitis or psychological factors. An examination in the urology department can be conducted. If prostatitis is found, anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered. If everything is normal, it is recommended to have a psychological examination to confirm.
