Patient's question:
Why is my husband recently been slow to get hard and then quickly softening, whereas before, when sleeping, just touching me would make him hard now it happens less often? He is 44 years old. Additional question: (2009-6-20 16:01:40) Could you please explain why he might be experiencing kidney deficiency?Doctor's answer:
The causes of sexual dysfunction are numerous, categorized into functional and organic types. Functional sexual dysfunction accounts for the majority of cases and is characterized by disturbances in cerebral cortex function, typically caused by abnormal sexual habits (such as masturbation, excessive sexual intercourse) and abnormal mental states (fear, tension, fatigue). Organic sexual dysfunction is less common and is often due to spinal cord injuries leading to dysfunction in the erectile and ejaculation centers, or chronic inflammation such as urethritis, prostatitis, orchitis, etc., as well as neuroendocrine diseases, and penile abnormalities. It is recommended to visit our hospital's sexual dysfunction specialty department for consultation. After professional examination and diagnosis, symptomatic treatment can be provided!
