Patient's question:
Hello Doctor:I am a 24-year-old male, and during sexual intercourse 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 completely free of sexual stimulation, 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 this have caused the issue?
Looking back, when I did not masturbate frequently, I could get an erection as soon as I was sexually stimulated... Now, I really regret it and wish I had never done it!
Doctor, if I stop masturbating, will I 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. It is recommended to pay more attention to hygiene, frequently clean your genital area, and avoid masturbation. Additionally, do not have too frequent sexual activity and exercise more. Moreover, it is forbidden to masturbate, and sexual activity should be restrained. Avoid intense sexual desires and refrain from using repetitive sexual intercourse to prolong the second sexual act, as this is harmful to health and should not be done.
