Patient's question:
Married for two years, the couple has a good relationship, but the sex life has always been harmonious. Now there is also pressure to have children, and I am very distressed. After the marriage, my husband has always had low libido, and sometimes there are issues with erection. I originally thought it was caused by varicocele, but after surgery last year, the sperm vitality improved significantly, but neither the libido nor the sexual function improved!Doctor's answer:
Hello. What he said makes sense. Indeed, starting sexual activity at this age can have an impact on the quality of sex life. Moreover, issues with sexual function are closely related to the influence of psychological stress on sexual desire. However, physical fitness and stamina are also important factors. For men in their late 30s, their physical condition naturally declines. If they lead an irregular lifestyle, especially by frequently staying up late and having poor sleep quality, or lack necessary physical exercise, it will certainly affect their fitness and stamina.The first step to improvement should be to adjust daily habits and engage in appropriate physical exercise, as this is the foundation for maintaining good physical and mental energy. Another approach is medication. The drugs commonly used in Western medicine for this purpose include medications like Viagra or Cialis, which are designed to enhance erectile function. The goal of these medications is to take them before sexual activity, allowing the drug to induce an erection, enabling a smooth sexual experience. This can help both partners experience the sensations during intercourse, accumulating the necessary sensory experience for future non-medicated sexual activity.
