Patient's question:
Hello, since I feel I have erectile dysfunction, I can't perform sexually every time. I already have a lot of pressure from my job during the day.Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence (internationally abbreviated as ED), refers to the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse when there is a sexual desire. It can also involve partial erection with some degree of firmness, but the erection cannot be maintained long enough for intercourse, thereby hindering or preventing sexual activity. Impotence is divided into two types: congenital and pathological. The former is rare and difficult to cure, while the latter is more common and has a higher cure rate. Once impotence occurs, it is essential to take measures promptly to prevent the condition from worsening. Mutual understanding between couples is also crucial. If the condition deteriorates further, it is imperative to seek medical attention at a reputable hospital to ensure the disease does not worsen!
