Patient's question:
I don't know if it's because of the recent work pressure, but in the last few times I had sex with my wife, I always finished quickly or sometimes couldn't get hard at all. I'm really troubled by this. Is this considered erectile dysfunction? How should I treat it, and can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are multiple causes that can lead to sexual dysfunction, such as excessive life or psychological stress, frequent masturbation, phimosis, prostatitis, reproductive infections, and so on. Common symptoms include weak erections and short sexual activity duration. I recommend that you have a check-up for sexual function and secretions at a local hospital to confirm the specific cause. In daily life, pay attention to your diet, reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods, drink more hot water, eat more light meals, avoid prolonged sitting or standing, and participate in outdoor activities when appropriate to enhance your physical resistance. If the condition is severe, it is advisable to seek treatment at a local reputable tertiary hospital.
