Patient's question:
I am 65 years old. Since last year, I have been unable to get an erection, no matter what medication or stimulation I try. I have had prostatitis for over ten years, and until now, I was still able to have sexual life with my wife. But now it's completely gone. Please, doctor, is it normal for someone of my age to be like this? Can it still be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, it is possible that you may have erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. The causes of premature ejaculation include: excessive foreskin, frequent masturbation, neurological diseases, hormonal imbalance, prostatitis, psychological issues, long-term smoking and drinking, etc. When treating erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation, it is essential to identify the root cause and treat accordingly. I recommend that when you have the opportunity, you visit a formal urology hospital for consultation. The doctor will conduct specialized examinations based on your condition to clarify the cause and severity of the illness, and provide personalized treatment to achieve the ideal therapeutic effect.
