Doctor's answer:

First, the most crucial aspect of treating erectile dysfunction is to identify the true underlying cause. Since there are numerous reasons that can lead to erectile dysfunction, only by identifying the actual cause can targeted treatment be administered. Erectile dysfunction may be caused by systemic diseases, such as early-stage diabetes patients. With proper dietary control, insulin use, or oral hypoglycemic medications, sexual function can often be rapidly improved.
Second, for psychogenic erectile dysfunction, behavioral therapy can be used. Sexual behavior, like other behaviors, is learned postnatally, and sexual dysfunction is the result of incorrect learning. Therefore, it can be corrected through relearning. The specific method involves a series of exercises with gradually increasing difficulty, which helps separate the patient's fear response from the sexual context, thereby eliminating concerns.
