Patient's question:
I am 42 years old and previously had a habit of sexual intercourse. Three months ago, after I had a partner, I discovered that I have kidney yang deficiency. Through medication and nourishment, the duration of sexual activity has generally been maintained above 20 minutes. Is it considered erectile dysfunction if I become flaccid in the middle of sexual intercourse?Doctor's answer:
Males with premature ejaculation are often due to difficulties in achieving an erection or the inability to get erect. In your case, 15 minutes is generally considered sufficient time. If you experience softness and lack of ejaculation during intercourse, it may be due to overly frequent sexual activity or physical discomfort, which can lead to suboptimal body conditions. In such cases, it is generally advisable to rest more and appropriately control the frequency of sexual activity. Additionally, when your body is well-rested and in good condition, implementing sexual activity should not be a problem. For patients, if the condition of premature ejaculation is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be initiated, and appropriate medication should be used. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of the condition. Moreover, patients should also pay attention to their diet and psychological care.
