Patient's question:
Previously, after drinking alcohol, I had a strong desire for sex and would automatically get hard. Now, my desire isn't as strong when drunk, and I can't get hard either! But when I'm not drinking, I can still get hard! Is this the beginning of erectile dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Excessive or long-term alcohol consumption can cause significant harm to the human body, particularly in terms of sexual function. Quitting alcohol or controlling alcohol intake, temporarily suspending sexual activity, engaging in appropriate exercise, and increasing foreplay before sexual activity are recommended. If necessary, it is advisable to have a professional medical examination for prostate function.
