Patient's question:
Now I can't get an erection, and I have no libido. I used to masturbate frequently, averaging about five to six times a week. Then my hardness decreased, and it's been about three to four months. The last time I had intercourse, it only got hard with extra stimulation, and then I came right after insertion~~Doctor's answer:
Sexual function is closely related to mental and psychological factors. For example, psychological states such as stress, anxiety, and depression, or physical fatigue or decline in condition can all lead to poor erectile function. It has little to do with prostatitis or masturbation. A decline in sexual function is not necessarily entirely due to kidney deficiency, and currently, from a clinical perspective, kidney deficiency caused by this is extremely rare in young and middle-aged adults unless they are elderly and frail. It is recommended to first change unhealthy lifestyles and adjust one's mindset, as this is the prerequisite and key to treatment. When seeking medical attention, it is essential to go to a formal hospital. The hospitals I know of include: Dongli Hospital in Tianjin, Dagang Oilfield General Hospital in Tianjin, and Baodi District People's Hospital in Tianjin.
