Patient's question:
I'm still very young, but now I've found that my sexual function has significantly declined. My erection hardness and duration have greatly improved. Is there any good solution to this? Is it because I have too frequent sex life? Is there any good way? I'm only 25... How come my erection time feels so short?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Impotence refers to young and middle-aged individuals who, due to reasons such as deficiency, fright, or damp-heat, cause the loss of nourishment and relaxation of the zongjīn, leading to weak and non-erect penises, limp erections during sexual activity, or firm erections that cannot last. It is often accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue, lower back and knee weakness, dizziness and tinnitus, cold contraction of the scrotum and penis, reduced semen volume or low sperm motility, a sense of fullness and pain in the perineum, difficulty urinating, or clear, frequent urination.Treatment based on syndrome differentiation:
- Decline of the mingmen fire: Warm and tonify the kidney yang, nourish the kidneys and replenish essence.
- Heart and spleen damage: Tonify the heart and spleen.
- Fear damaging the kidneys: Benefit the kidneys and calm the spirit.
- Liver qi stagnation: Soothe the liver and resolve stagnation.
- Damp-heat descending: Clear and resolve damp-heat.
However, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment. You should consult a local traditional Chinese medicine hospital and combine the four diagnostic methods (inspection, auscultation/olfaction, inquiry, and palpation) to prescribe the correct medicine for the specific symptoms, so that the medicine can effectively treat the condition. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
