Patient's question:
I have had a history of sexual activity and now I have control, but I currently feel that my penis has symptoms of premature ejaculation. What are the good treatments for impotence and premature ejaculation? Why do I feel a bit weak in erection now?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation are primarily symptoms caused by insufficient Yang Qi in the kidneys. Treatment can involve consuming traditional Chinese herbal medicines that replenish Yang Qi. Specific options include Gui Lu Er Jiao Wan (Tortoise and Deer Pills) or Jin Gui Shen Qi Wan (Golden Cabinet Kidney Qi Pills). Soaking (Epimedium), (Gymnostachys), (Rehmannia glutinosa), and (bull penis) in alcohol can also help replenish Yang Qi.When patients face the distress of premature ejaculation, they should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If premature ejaculation does not improve with treatment, it is essential to prioritize rest, avoid prolonged sitting or standing, engage in appropriate physical exercise, maintain a light diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, follow a regular sleep schedule, and avoid staying up late. Additionally, refrain from smoking and drinking alcohol. Consuming foods rich in zinc and selenium, such as lamb and oysters, can be beneficial. Oral traditional Chinese medicine preparations may also be taken.
