Patient's question:
Hello:Male: 24, unmarried
I feel that the erection of my reproductive organ hasn't been as hard as before, and it seems like it's also not as frequent as it used to be. I've been under a lot of stress recently, and I'm very busy. Is this a decline in sexual function, or is it due to psychological factors?
Doctor's answer:
Psychological factors: Patients with erectile dysfunction often experience excessive mental stress, which affects the release of central nervous system neurotransmitters, disrupts the balance of sympathetic nerve excitement and endocrine hormone regulation, all of which can lead to erectile dysfunction. Sexual ignorance or incorrect sexual education, psychological trauma, marital discord, fatigue, and an unsatisfactory sexual environment are also psychological factors that affect erectile function.
