Patient's question:
What should I do if my penis becomes soft during sexual activity? Are there any medications to treat this?Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering your condition, it is possible that you may have erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence, refers to the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse when there is a sexual desire. It may also involve achieving an erection with some degree of firmness but not being able to maintain it long enough to complete sexual activity, thereby hindering or preventing intercourse. Chronic inflammation of the urogenital organs leading to erectile dysfunction is relatively common, such as orchitis, epididymitis, urethritis, cystitis, prostatitis, etc., among which chronic prostatitis is the most frequent cause of erectile dysfunction. Therefore, it is recommended that you consider your specific situation and undergo relevant tests at the hospital, such as a test for sexual nerve sensitivity and erectile function, to determine the appropriate treatment based on the results.
