Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I don't know what's going on recently. I always feel uncomfortable down there.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 achieving an erection with some degree of hardness but not being able to sustain it for a sufficient duration to complete sexual activity, thereby hindering or preventing intercourse. Impotence is classified 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 partners 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!
