Patient's question:
I have been experiencing erectile dysfunction recently, and I'm feeling very frustrated. I've tried many supplements, but they haven't been very effective. However, occasionally using topical medication does help. It's usually when I can't get an erection when I want to have sex, or when I do get an erection, it quickly goes soft. I'd like to ask which hospital in Jinan is good for urology.Doctor's answer:
Hello, impotence is also known as erectile dysfunction, which refers to a condition where, in a relationship between both partners, the male's penis is not firm enough to insert into the vagina or cannot maintain its firmness to complete the entire sexual act for at least 3 months, which is termed erectile dysfunction. The causes of erectile dysfunction can be divided into primary and secondary types. Primary cases are often associated with psychological factors, biological factors, etc.; secondary cases are commonly caused by vascular disorders, hormonal disorders, medication use, neurological conditions, etc., often involving a history of medication use, smoking and alcohol consumption, prostatic diseases, or masturbation. The clinical manifestations are often seen in cases where the individual previously could achieve and maintain an erection but no longer has this function or finds it difficult to achieve an erection. It is recommended that you pay attention to the hygiene of the external genitalia during masturbation, sexual activity, and daily life. Masturbation or sexual activity should be regular, and it is advisable to seek relevant examinations at a formal hospital as early as possible.
