Patient's question:
Hello Doctor: I am a 24-year-old male, and during sexual activity with my girlfriend, my penis has a slow erection and is not very firm. Additionally, there are signs of premature ejaculation. Sometimes, my mind is not even sexually stimulated, so I cannot get an erection! However, when I masturbate, the erection is relatively quick and firm! I used to masturbate frequently in the past. Could it be caused by masturbation? Thinking back, when I did not masturbate frequently, I could get an erection as soon as there was any sexual stimulation... I really regret it now, I really shouldn't have! Please, Doctor, after quitting masturbation, do I still have a chance to recover?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, it is likely that excessive masturbation has led to kidney deficiency, causing a lack of firmness in your penis. You should pay more attention to hygiene, frequently clean your genital area, and avoid masturbation. Also, do not have too frequent sexual activity and exercise more. Moreover, it is forbidden to masturbate, and you should moderate sexual activity, avoid intense sexual desires, and avoid using repeated intercourse to extend the duration of the second sexual act. This is harmful to your health and is not advisable.
