Patient's question:
I have mild premature ejaculation, and ejaculation usually completes within two minutes. To prolong the time, I consciously control ejaculation by withdrawing when I'm about to climax, reducing excitement, and then re-entering. I repeat this process three or four times. I'm wondering if doing this over time will have any negative effects?First follow-up question: Thank you all for your responses. Recently, I've noticed lower back pain after ejaculation. This has been happening for about 2-3 months. Initially, it would recover within 1-2 days, but the last time, it took two weeks to recover. I once consulted a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner who said my premature ejaculation was related to kidney deficiency due to prolonged masturbation. So, I'm not sure if the lower back pain is also caused by kidney deficiency.
Doctor's answer:
Alternate hot and cold sit baths: Before going to bed each night, first sit in cold water for 15 minutes, then sit in warm water for 15 minutes. Do this once daily to improve control over ejaculation in the posterior urethra. Adopt the supine position with legs straight and feet about 100 centimeters apart. Place your hands beside your hips, relax naturally, focus your gaze inward, and concentrate on the lower Dantian. Close your mouth and press your tongue to the roof of your mouth. First, focus on the lower Dantian for 2 minutes, then begin inhaling. As you inhale, tighten your abdomen and lift your rectum, causing the penis, testicles, and anus to contract while the lower abdomen is drawn in. At this moment, visualize the energy flowing from the glans penis through the penis to the perineum, then from the perineum through the coccyx along the spine upward to the Du Zhong (GV20), and then exhale. Simultaneously, guide the energy with your mind through the mouth, along with the saliva in your mouth, down to the lower Dantian. Additionally, each time you inhale, tense your fingers and toes. After the energy reaches the lower Dantian, relax your hands and feet. Repeat this 3 to 9 times.
