Patient's question:
I am 23 years old.I have had a history of masturbation for about 3 years, and in the past, I wasn't very knowledgeable about it. I used to masturbate in an unhygienic manner. For a period of time, I noticed that the skin on the outside of my testicles became itchy, but it would go away after some time. This itching has happened a few times. Now I pay more attention to hygiene and have reduced the frequency of masturbation. It doesn't itch anymore.
However, I feel that the more serious issue is that I now always feel like I don't have enough energy. During sex with my girlfriend, the duration is very short, and my erection isn't very firm. I am very distressed and don't know why. I have taken Liuwei Dihuang Wan, but it hasn't had any effect. Please tell me if this is...
Doctor's answer:
First, it's important to clarify that it's not prostatitis. Secondly, warming the kidney yang is key, but sexual activity still needs to be regular and restrained. You can take Chinese herbal decoctions to regulate it, while pills take longer to work.
