How to treat impotence and premature ejaculation caused by masturbation?

Patient's question:

Hello! How should I treat impotence and premature ejaculation caused by masturbation? Also, my scrotum is very moist, and my erection hardness is not enough. Is it very serious?

Doctor's answer:

Hello
Masturbation refers to the act of stimulating the external genitalia with the hands, which subsequently induces sexual arousal and provides temporary psychological satisfaction, serving as a form of self-gratification. Excessive or prolonged masturbation can lead to sexual dysfunction. Since the stimulation caused by a man rubbing his penis with his hands to achieve ejaculation is relatively intense, the sexual stimulation the penis receives from vaginal intercourse in normal sexual life is not stronger than that from masturbation. From this perspective, masturbation does not cause premature ejaculation. On the other hand, long-term and overly frequent masturbation, similar to excessive sexual activity, can lead to excessive excitement of the erection and ejaculation centers, resulting in fatigue. This shift from excitement to inhibition can cause sexual dysfunctions such as impotence and premature ejaculation.
Masturbation practiced in a regulated manner by individuals with self-control does not harm the body or mind. However, if masturbation becomes frequent and habitual, it can create unnecessary mental stress and anxiety. In severe cases, it may lead to psychological abnormalities and sexual dysfunction, affecting normal life, studies, and work. Whether occasional or habitual masturbation is considered unacceptable, and efforts should be made to overcome it.
Prevention
1. Eliminate psychological factors. Gain a thorough understanding of sexual knowledge and recognize the impact of psychological factors on sexual function. Treat "sexual desire" with a correct attitude, avoiding disgust and fear due to its perceived secrecy. Do not become discouraged or anxious due to occasional sexual failures, nor lack confidence. Couples should increase emotional communication, eliminate disharmony, and coordinate
