Patient's question:
Erectile dysfunction characterized by a short duration of erection, lack of firmness, difficulty penetrating the vagina, and rapid softening. Is medication treatment necessary?Doctor's answer:
This is a manifestation of sexual dysfunction. The treatment varies depending on the cause of the disease. There are many causes of sexual dysfunction, which can be functional or organic. Most cases of functional sexual dysfunction are characterized by dysfunction of the cerebral cortex, usually caused by abnormal sexual habits (masturbation, excessive sexual intercourse, etc.) and abnormal mental states (fear, tension, fatigue, etc.). Organic sexual dysfunction is less common and is often caused by spinal cord injury, leading to dysfunction of the central nervous system responsible for penile erection and ejaculation.
