Patient's question:
When my husband and I have sex, he can only maintain it for a very short time before he can't continue. Moreover, I feel that his erection isn't very hard, and sometimes he can't even penetrate. Is this a problem with his sexual function? Is there a way to completely cure it?Doctor's answer:
Hello:Consider whether there is premature ejaculation, and the Chinese and Western medical methods for treating premature ejaculation.
For the treatment of premature ejaculation, prevention is key. First, it is important to enhance sexual education and understand the physiological differences between female and male sexual climax, which typically occurs later in women. If premature ejaculation occurs occasionally, couples should not blame the male partner. For more significant cases of premature ejaculation, couples may temporarily separate for a period of time. This can help break established pathological conditioned reflexes and allow sexual function to be adjusted and the reflex for ejaculation to be rebuilt. Close cooperation between partners can also extend sexual intercourse time, allowing both to achieve sexual satisfaction. Avoid excessive excitement during intercourse. When nearing ejaculation, stop thrusting the penis in and out of the vagina and divert attention from the sexual organs to non-sexual areas. Those who experience premature ejaculation due to excessive indulgence or prolonged masturbation can gradually reduce the occurrence of premature ejaculation by practicing moderate abstinence and abstaining from masturbation. Individuals with premature ejaculation caused by organic lesions should receive treatment targeting the underlying cause.
