Patient's question:
Without masturbation, my penis isn't as hard as it used to be, and it feels less thick and longer. Last time I masturbated, I rubbed it with both hands, and it felt like the head of my penis got smaller (Why?). How can I get it back to normal? I'm not daring to masturbate anymore. People online say it's due to kidney deficiency—is that true? What should I eat or supplement if I have kidney deficiency? Or are there other factors or causes? I'm only 13 years old now. Will my penis stop growing in the future?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction refers to the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse when there is a sexual desire, or the ability to achieve an erection with some degree of hardness but not enough to sustain sexual activity, thereby hindering or preventing sexual intercourse. There are many factors or causes that can lead to erectile dysfunction. One is psychological factors, such as emotional indifference between partners or stress caused by certain factors, which can result in erectile dysfunction. If sexual activity is too frequent, the erection center may remain in a state of tension over time, eventually leading to erectile dysfunction. The other is physiological factors or causes, such as abnormalities in the erection center of the penis. When important organs like the liver, kidneys, heart, or lungs suffer from serious diseases, especially if they persist for a long time, they may also affect the psychological control of sexual physiology. Currently, there are no specific drugs to treat erectile dysfunction. It is recommended to seek medical attention at a formal hospital! Additionally, dietary methods using ingredients like dog penises, eels, or venison have no effect, as the spongy tissue in these foods is destroyed after high-temperature processing.Treatment:
- Sexual dysfunction: Treatment with hormones like testosterone and thyroid hormone.
- Vitamin E and other supplements.
Prevention:
1. Eliminate psychological factors. Gain a thorough understanding of sexual knowledge and recognize the impact of psychological factors on sexual function.
2. Moderation in sexual activity. Consume aphrodisiac foods: Common aphrodisiacs include dog meat, lamb, quail, walnuts, ox penises, and sheep kidneys. Animal organs contain high levels of sex hormones and adrenal cortical hormones, which can enhance sperm vitality and increase libido.
